Friday night challenge

A new stamp!!!!! Arrived today, it is so yummy, even nicer in RL! Was dying to have a play all day, but had to wait as our hamster decided to go on the run and get himself jammed behind a wardrobe (that I couldn't move!!!) Anyway a few neighbours and chimney cleaning poll thingies later, he was free!! Phew!!! So after all of that I got to stamp. Sandie and myself decided to set a little challenge as she recieved some new stamps today too! Create a card, half an hour, new stamp! This is my contribution Colonel Sandie Shores!!!! LOL!!!!

Tfl, Mandyxx

Missing in action

Hello all, I dropped off the face of the planet for a bit! Not my fault though, blame my internet company!! Grrrrrr Yes I have had no internet since last week, I was having withdrawals, the shakes, sweats LOL!!! I have torn my house apart cleaning it out of bordom, but I am glad to say that has ended as now I appear to be up and running, for how long is another matter!! So I am back and will be creating again and posting!

Happy " Love" Day xx

Tag eile

And she is off again with the tags. I sat down last night and knew I wanted to make something, but what I did not know. Using the new butterfly stamp my wonderful SS sent me, I created a background also using my alchol inks and distress pads, and of course some grungeboard too (tags just wouldn't be the same without it, and the smell of it, is so yummy) I finished off with a blossom and a beautiful 7 Gpysies key my friend Sandie gave me (thanks hun). Voile one completed tag!!! TFL
