Ike's Gnome Sweet Gnome

Well, it's April, so it's a little late to be saying Happy New Year but I'll say it anyway. Happy New Year! Not a good start to 2018.... what??? Not a good start to the last five years actually... no that's not all true, bad things may trip you up (that's because my wellie boots are a little too big for me!) and send you falling face first into the mud(which some say is good for the complexion!) but the good things can whitewash over all that. (Just give a two year old a paint brush )

One of my fav card makers, IKE, has been at it again, bringing a smile to my face and using one of my digital images on one of her challenge cards.... Here it is!! Not the little gnomes but their Toadstool house in the  back ground. How fantastic is that!?  To find out more about the little gnomes and the papers Ike has used, just pop along to her blog. http://suzy-ikesworld.blogspot.com/  join in, have fun, guaranteed to make you smile!

Edwina's Halloween Cards

It's nearly the witching hour and Edwina  has been busy making some fabulous Halloween Cards using one of my digi's 'Treat or Treat'...(I think the cat's called Treat!) Nip over to Edwina's blog to see how she made them.  First this window card...

                                           A Halloween Boo, Just for you!

 And this Halloween Card. Nice that they took the cat along to help with the trick and treating. Cats love treats too! (It's really too cute to spook!)

Well, that's all from me.... see you at Christmas, if not before!

Edwina's Creations!

Hi Bloggers, I just had to come out from the dust in the corner, fight off the dogs staying with me today, push Jinxy the cat off my computer chair... (it's okay...he's moved to the bed now) to blog about two fabulous cards made by the one and only Edwina  from Edwina's Creations.

 She has used Birthday Party Teddy from my store (yes, it's still there!) and coloured him with Copics. That cake looks good enough to eat! Bet it's chocolate fudge!

In the second card Edwina has used some fabulous cake  papers (I think there's a link on her blog) and used softer pastel colours also in Copics.
PaperCraft Inspiration Magazine has some freebie birthday cake papers HERE
(Stop awhile and pick up lots more!!)
 There's more infro on how Edwina made her cards over on her Blog, Edwina's Creations 
 Well, that's it from me....back to the dusty corner for a few more months! Unless of course you make a card using any of my digi's, then I'll just have to blog about that too!   Happy Crafting!

Unicorn Birthday Wishes Card by Tiya

Half a year's flown by so I thought I'd add this lovely card made by Tiya, using one of my digi's. Unicorn just to proove I haven't forgotten how to blog.... I have but we won't mention that! I remember drawing him, I hadn't had my Waccam long and couldn't get the legs right. Of course these days the only corn I get is Crunchie Nut Cornflakes or a corn on my toe! (The joys of dog walking!) 

So here's the card. Pop over and see it on Tiya's Blog   there's lots more cards to have a spy at.

Hi From Mr Jinx...and Me.

I know, it's been ages and ages (years??) with no posts or freebies or anything, but here I am, brushing away the cobwebs and trying to use the computer while Mr Jinx keeps pressing all the wrong keys (or trying to push me out of my chair!) 

I just thought I'd pop in and say "Hi" I'm still here and very busy, sort of, with my new venture...  Forest Walkies and to also say thank you to all of you bloggers from the crafting world who pop in and comment, like, make funny faces, on my Forest Walkies face book page - it's always great to 'hear' from you and makes my day! I hope to make a comeback with the crafting some time soon, not sure how, when all my crafting stuff is packed away in the attic but never say never!

  Hope you all have a fantastic Happy 2017!

Show us your pussies, it's another IKE challenge

Aw! I know, I haven't been blogging for eons - the doggy business is really non stop and all my crafty stuff has been stored away but, I just found myself sitting at the computer (rather than my phone) and had to let you know Ike has another fabulous challenge for all you cat lovers out there! It has to be a  pussy cat/ Halloween card!  All details you'll find HERE
This is Ike's fabpussy halloween card and seeing I'm sponsoring the challenge (Spyder's Other Corner) she's done wonders with a couple of my digi's! LOVE IT!!! I sooo wish I could play along. :(

   Thank you Ike  for a great challenge! Don't forget to look out from Ike's freebies.

Another Fairy Chrimble Card.

I started this card last week... doesn't time fly! I've only just finished it about five seconds ago. Glue's still wet!
And talking about being wet (and muddy!!) I've been really busy with the dogs. Tommy was staying over on his 6th birthday, so we had to have a doggy birthday party with friends Bronte and Benson. Pictures are a bit blurry but you get the gist!
Anyway, I'll still add this card as a DT card to the Quicky Crafts Blog even though there's only about a day left to join in with my Christmas Challenge.

 I've used the same fairy as last week Mixie from That Crafty Place.
This time I wanted to colour her with Christmas colours, so here she is..

I've used my own freebie snowy backing paper, and printed her over it, then coloured her with Promarkers, used a white gell pen, covered her in Stickles Glitter Glue, added a stick on pressie, some holly and a tree. 

Once again, like my other card, (here) I've 3D-ed the frilly part of her dress.

The Christmas Tree papers, the stick on ribbon and the papers inside the card are from a 6x6 pack by Dovecraft.

 The sentiment came free from a different set given away by one of the Crafty Mags I subscribe to. I've mounted everything on to green red and gold miri card. I think she'd look great in a Santa's hat, but maybe not!
I'm not sure I like her wings this time, but I like her boots!
Didn't get to link up hardly any of those challenges last week, will try harder this time! Craft have a colour combo...I think I have most of them here. And just to get you started Jo has added some freebie papers for you to down load! That's it for now! Thank you for stopping by.
