Indigoblu 'Juliet'

Good afternoon lovely blog people.

A very dreary day here in Devon so a spot of crafting to cheer things up a bit!

This is my entry for  the Indigoblu Challenge 'Indian Summer'.
I have kept it fairly simple as otherwise it would be too busy.

Items used:
Indigoblu 'Juliet' code:JI
Black ink then clear sparkly embossing powder
Tonic paper
Enamel dots

Now I must go and post on my much neglected Stampin Up blog.
Thanks for stopping by and I hope you find some craft time for yourself.

Hot Chocolate Anyone?

Hello there - remember me?!!
I have been missing from blog land with my old enemy - Tonsillitis :(
The thing is Tonsillitis and I go back a LONG way, in fact I should have had my Tonsils out on my 18th birthday but I had a big party planned as I also got engaged. So I cancelled the hospital appointment and fell off the waiting list!!  Now whenever I get Tonsillitis it takes 10 days of strong antibiotics to clear it up. But never mind I am on the mend now.
Here is my entry for the Less Is More   Challenge where the theme is one layer 'Beverages':

Items used:
Paper Smooches 'Cyber Café' and 'Geo Graphic' stamps
Stampin Up inks
Glamour Dust
Glossy Accents
Fluffy Stuff
Brown metallic twine chopped up!

So that's my share for today, thanks for visiting.
