Little Boy Blue




Polka Doodles challenge- week 11- A sketch and theme of blue and brown. I've used a stencil on the base card and used blue and brown to add the diamond effect.It's hard to see on the picture but I've paper pieced the dark brown patches,his mittens and his boots.I've added a couple of snowflakes as I think he would be good for Christmas or a Winter Birthday.
The image is from Renate at Hobby Paleis.

A little birdie


Well yesterday was a horrible day,after staying up for way too many hours on Saturday I was completely out of it. I was on auto pilot all day and did all my usual things like cooking and grocery shopping all without incident. The only casualty of the day was ironing my husbands work shirts ,the fly spray was on the worktop next to my spray starch, I'm not sure which one I used .

Polka Doodles challenge week 7. They have a layout and also a theme 'For the birds'.I'm not sure what sort of bird this is and it should probably be a different colour but hey I like it.I love spotty paper and last week at my local craft store demo I couldn't resist this paper.I couldn't wait to use it either .
Cute Daisy May challenge Flowers.

Sweet Valentine


Hi crafty world, can't believe it's Friday already. Think the printer needs more ink ,the image on this card was very pale. I've used gift wrap for the backing paper and the image is from Pollycraft. A bit of lace,a button and some punched hearts.

Pink Elephant- challenge 50- I've followed this sketch for my card.
