Wasn't it cold at the weekend, i just couldn't get warm. Even this morning the car was very icy, i don't like the cold mornings.
I managed to make a few cards on Sunday, the first one is for the Just Magnolia Challenge Blog which was to include hearts and flowers, two of my favourite things.
I love these papers they are all my favourite colours they are from Pink Paislee - Cupid Collection.
I made this card to enter in the Lili of the Valley Blog Challenge, Isn't she a cutie she is Rosie Posy from the new range.

While blog hopping i came across this gorgeous tissue paper flower, it was really simple to make. I used my nestabilities scallop circles and cut out 4 in red tissue paper and 2 out from patterned paper, i used a page from an old french book, next pierce the middle and put a brad in then scrunch all the layers up (it does look really messy), carefully open them to how you want, they look fantastic on projects and i have used them on lots of different things.
Don't forgot to enter the blog candy below :)

I hope you all had a good weekend. I wanted a catch up this weekend but you know when you are just not in the right mood to do those things that you should be doing and then on Monday morning you really wished that you had made a start, well i have an order of 36 cards to make, but i just couldn't get started. I will start tomorrow!!
Instead i thought i would spruce up a couple of plain white candles using the January Blooms Kit - Frosted Lace

These would make really nice gifts put into a gorgeous altered gift bag.

Will be back tomorrow with some blog candy and some DT news.

Its been snowing all day to day but just hasn't settled, thank goodness!
I have taken stock of some gorgeous new card candy which can be found here.
I have altered this little box from WH Smith that i bought in the sale, I needed somewhere to keep all my stamped images, I want to try and colour a few images so i always have them ready to make a card with. The pearl and the ribbon tied through the buttons have been recycled from christmas crackers :)

Well i thought i would wake up to 40cm of snow this morning, i was disappointed when i didn't! Its now turned very chilly and is very slippery outside.
I love this stamp, i bought her last november at the NEC, she is such a cutie.
Have you seen the new January Blooms Kit - Frosted Lace it bursting with deliciousness :)
Have a good evening.
