Superhero brother




Not at all what I had planned to do for today, was meant to do a card actually!!! This pic has been sitting on my desk for ages now, so finally decided to bite the bullet and I am actually happy the way this one turned out, I am very critical of my LO's, they never seem right quite to me, on the other hand everyones elses alwasy seem to be so gorgeous. Anywwaaayyyy, tfl, mandyxx

I am creating I promise..........

I am working on sample cards using some gorgeous new stamps a talented friend of mine has designed and made!!! They will be launching soon, so watch this space. I have soom lovely cards done, but I am keeping them underwraps until the big reveal. Later though I plan on making something "just because" to prove I am still creating!!! Hugs, mandyxx

A crazy week!!! Kids off school, and I got nothing done, I did manage though to create my first paper bag album with the guidance of Sandie, I am going to use this for pics of the kids birthdays, I love the colours of the basic grey cupcake range, so colourful and happy. I am not finished it yet, still have to embellish and work on the cover too, and I plan on doing that today out in the garden, as it is another gorgeous day!!! tfl, mandyxx

Fridays Card Challenge


Yet another I hear you say lol! Again between Sandie and myself! I have used Elsie "Claire" again, I am getting great mileage out of these papers, but they are so yummy, how could you not? I used my rubons on acetate and then mounted them to the card using foam pads, just to give it a bit of 3D ness, and again sketch is from Katarinas wonderful collection!!! Hope you likey, thanks for looking, mandyxx
