Tick Tock....

Hi all, yes.... another post this month! i am getting good ;-)

I bought this kit a while back and with one thing and another hadnt got round to making it, but finally managed to do it and grunged it up, now is hanging in the lounge, ticking away! although the leaves dont swing that hang underneath, but that dont really matter!

Was pretty chuffed how it came out tho, hubby was too as he asked me to 'Tim' it up,  so i did my best!

(he knows i have a secret admiration for Tim Holtz)

Humphrey's Corner....

Yes at last, it's almost here! the launch of this cute little elephant Humphrey, his sister Lottie, Baby Jack, Mum, Dad, and all his friends is about to be launched from Crafters Companion, and believe me.... its a doozy! I absolutely loved working on this CD with the lovely Leann, the images are just totally gorgeous and i'm sure you too will all fall in love with him? He is just so cute.

He launches on Ideal World on the 24th May at 9pm as the Pick of the Day, so set your timers and sit down with a cuppa and be ready to be inspired by all the gorgeous projects the design team have put together. I haven't made any samples for this unfortunately, as i've been really busy with other stuff, so looking forward to seeing all the fab work the rest of the DT have come up with.

For more info and lots of sneak peeks up to the launch go over to the Crafters Companion blog for all the gorgeous samples by the team.

March Downloads of the Month

I can't believe it's March already! where is the year going? With that said, Mother's day is on its way, so i wanted to create something special for a very special woman. Not sure yet which one of these i'm going to give to my mum, but know she will be pleased with any of them.

I wanted to create something grungy and pretty, so that's why i designed the papers and embellishments that way. I also added some faux stitching just for that something extra, but it looks kind good, so was pleased with that effect.

If you want to get your hands on this FREE set of papers and embellishments, click on THIS link and log onto Crafter's Companion, Downloads of the Month to get yours.

Enjoy
