LOTV Fairy

Another quick card from me today using the already fab coloured LOTV squares, just perfect for a quick card! I have had these these Blonde Moments papers for years so decided to use them up, the little crystals ball things came off some crackers.

You all seem to be loving the new seam binding and bakers twine, it is flying out of the doors, remember this week prima flowers are on offer.

It's been rather a miserable day here today, all drizzly and cold, I've sat in my craft room with my music up full blast :), not that i have really achieved much, but i did manage to tick another 2 jobs off of my to do list, and I've got a lovely piece of beef and all the trimmings in the oven.
This is another gorgeous stamp by LOTV, this is the first time I have inked her up, the gorgeous papers are MME Fine and Dandy they are so pretty.

Mojo Monday

Wasn't it rather chilly today, in my quest to keep fit I cycled 5 miles, I haven't been on my bike for months but I'm hoping to cycle most days.
I'm just catching up with last Mojo Monday's sketch, I love these papers, they are so glittery and pretty, i have used the TH tattered flower die and also the rolled flower die.
I also treated myself to a few of the new LOTV stamps that have been released today, they are so cute!

Seam Binding

Look what has arrived here today, gorgeous American Seam Binding in 19 colours

It can be scrunched, distressed or coloured for that vintage / worn look. I haven't even had a play with it myself, maybe i should start my to do list next week :)

Happy New Year

I hope you all had a fab christmas, didn't it fly by, can you believe it's already a week into January. I have started off this year trying to be super organised, I now have a list book :) and I write everything in it that needs to be done and on what day, I am so a procrastinator, a friend of mine gave me an article to read out of the free waitrose magazine about procrastinating and that it is better to work on goals in small chunks, it advises you just to do 15 minutes of your task and after that time to completely stop, the key is to make a huge task or a small one that you hate seem manageable, i will be starting this from today (i now mean tomorrow as i have failed today :)
Over on LOTV they have a sketch, i don't normally make purple / lilac cards but i bought these die cuts from LOTV at the NEC.

pins, flowers, bling

Over at Ladybug Crafts Ink the challenge is anything goes, I absolutely love Daydreaming Ruby, I wish I had hair like that!

I have used the gorgeous Fairy Flora papers from Prima, flowers, Daydreaming Ruby, Fairy Sentiments.
