Another creation using Daisy, i cant think how i had her stashed away! shame of it!
Anyway, the papers are papermania ones the black and white set, remembered this time (big smiley face!) coloured using speccies and the sentiment is a whimsy sentiment stamp, been colouring a few of these lately... so im sure there will be more ;-)

More colouring.... Daisy!

Oh my word ~ I'd totally forgotten about this little beauty! in the bottom of a drawer! eeek! slap my wrists ~ i know ~ shame of it!
Anyway, here she is coloured with my speccies and some papers that i had laying about ~sorry but i cant think for the life of me where i got them, i know i downloaded them, and they are gorgeous. The sentiment is Stampin' Up! (Oval All)

...another play...

yes, this is another post for this month! your not seeing things, ive been crafting!
Here's another little stamped image ~ found all my little characters that i'd forgotten i had! wow have i got some stamps! ooops!
This one im sure is a tilda stamp, have no idea what she is called tho (embarrased look!) coloured with promarkers tho, and using some papers i printed off from somewhere so long ago!
As i had a bit of a clean up/clear out i came across all sorts that id printed off, stamped.... so thought id better start to use this stuff, rather than it sit there....gathering dust!

Ally Pally haul

Been slacking slightly i know with the goodies i got at Ally Pally last weekend, couldnt find the lead for my camera, so couldnt upload anything....but here's my haul of yummy's bought by the most wonderful and patient hubby ever! he sat and watched demonstrations, watched me coo and stroke tons of yummy stuff and whipped out his wallet without a single moan! bless his heart!
Will be posting some cards i've made recently, just gotta sort out getting them uploaded...and you can see them. Am in process of making grungey roses....slightly addictive! slightly gorgeous too! thanks to the amazing Hels who did a brill demo which even hubby was bowled over by!
 tons of yummy stamps and Kraft card....

Easter Wishes

Its almost Easter, wow this year is going so quick already! and also time for the new Downloads of the Month. The set i designed for Crafters Companions this month was with Easter in mind, but also with elements that can be used all year round too. I'd asked the wonderful ladies on the Crafter's Companion Forum a while back if there were any particular colours, styles they'd like to see as Downloads of the Month, and this was one of the colour schemes i was asked to create. 
You can see the article on Crafters Companion Blog, and you can download the set from here. Remember you must be logged in to download the set! Hope you enjoy the set, would love to see your creations made with it.
See you soon
Take care
