Oh little town...

I just love dies.....

Blue on white

I just love white and blue on white for christmas....

I had a few images that I had coloured in last year, and when I found them again, I was going to bin them....then the thrift in me said no.... so I sat and had a play...

Where does the time go?

I really can't beleive that it has been 4 months since I was last here....
I will have to make up for it!!!

I wanted to make both the girls a little album each full of 'our family chrismtas' things - photographs of them from sitting on santa's knee to now!

I will include family traditions - recipies - favourite things... etc.  I want them to have a little christmas to take with them when they leave home...(eventually).  They are now 20 and 18 years of age....
It is very much a work in progress, I now have to decorate them.

EMMA'S



 These are little Christmas books I am making for my daughters.

SARAH'S



They are made from cereal boxes, envelopes and cards.

 I have used backing papers that are cutsie, but they will be covered with photographs.

 The spine is decorated with wired ribbon

ladybirds

 I am not brilliant at colouring in reds, but I thought I would give it another go... still not great, but I will not give up. The same can be said for my bow making... I am rubbish, but have now got a little bow maker thingy, with prongs, so it should help...lol..  I have been waiting to use these little ladybirds on something, glad I kept them by.

Anyone for strawberries...

I had these quickcutz strawberries lying around for ages, they almost went into the bin, but then I thought 'no, I must have cut them out for something...Magnolia probably, but did them in a sizzix basket instead.

I must use some of my quickutz dies more often!

friend..

 This die is another one the new releases, it is just gorgeous....

Wedding on the beach..

Aren't they cute?  I just love these stamps, but then I love nearly all the magnolia stamps....

Did these in watercolour pencils.
