Lazy Daisy

I don't know where my mojo has gone, but I really struggled to get a card together today. I persevered though and came up with this. Not one of my best, but not one of my worst either I don't think!! lol 

 The lovely daisies are from Just Inklined and are available here. Coloured with Promarkers (Burnt Orange, Pumpkin and Gold) and the frilly border is the Martha Stewart Doily punch.  As per usual can't remember the name of the embossing folder I used .. I've had it for yonks!! lol


Hope you've all had a fabulous Christmas and have a fantastic New Year :) xx

Ho Ho Ho!!

I think this delightful Santa has got to be one of my favourite Christmas images from Just Inklined. He's just like Santa should be and he's sooo easy to colour in!!

I made a one layer card and coloured with Promarkers as usual. The embossed border was done with my Hougie Board. 

Hope you're all having a great weekend whatever you're doing :)

Baby Blanket

I took up crocheting about 30 years ago and made one mahoosive blanket using all the scraps of wool I could lay my hands on. Don't know where it is now, but I haven't touched a crochet hook since then. 

Then I saw some baby blankets on Pinterest and thought "I could do that" so I bought some wool, some crochet hooks and hey presto, produced this. 


It's for a baby girl who is refusing to make an appearance so come on Poppy, do us a favour and get a wiggle on!!! 

I'm on with another blanket at the moment, but I'm trying to follow a pattern so goodness knows what it will turn out like!! lol 

Hope you're having a lovely relaxing Sunday :) xx

Our host this month is Lori, and her chosen them is "Lace and Handmade Flowers".

I've chosen the gorgeous "Elizabeth" for my card and coloured her with Promarkers. I didn't have any real lace so compromised with a couple of border punches, and I think the handmade flowers are self explanatory!! lol

In case you get lost, here's the hop in the correct order. Enjoy!!
