Dilly Beans Snowmen

Hi there.

Oh the weather is 'Ansome' again today and I like it!!

Here's a card I made this morning:

A bit of a strange card for this time of year but at least it's one less to make at Christmas!!
I didn't add a sentiment as then it could be used for Christmas or Birthday.

Items used:
Dilly Beans Designs 'Snowmen' (which I was lucky enough to win at Sketch Saturday - Yay!!)
ProMarkers
Liquid Pearls
LOTV 'Winter Wishes' papers
Metal charm, ribbon and twine from stash

I'm off to let the chickens have a scratch in the garden and enjoy the sunshine - here they are yesterday:

Ones having a 'dust bath' in the flower pot and the other has her leg out catching the rays!!
Five minutes later they were both asleep!


Hope you have a fab day and thanks for stopping by my blog - TTFN.

Mocha Morning

Good morning lovely blog people. I hope the sun is shinning where ever you are!

As my last post said it is my nan's birthday and I have been racking my brains for a present. I mean what can you buy a 94 year old?!! In the past I have bought chocolates, fudge, soaps, flowers, fruit baskets etc..... but this year I had a good idea. I have made some birthday cards for her to write to her friends which will hopefully save her a few pennies:

Items used:
Stampin Up 'Mocha Morning' papers
Stampin Up stamps and punches
Some Pink Petticoat sentiments
Flowers and stitched ribbon from the Ribbon Girl
Rest of ribbon, gems, punches and buttons from stash

Hopefully she will like them and her friends will too!

Thanks for stopping by my blog today and TTFN.
