Today is going to be a crazy day. I am babysitting my 8mo granddaughter, Gemma, for the day and my other granddaughter phoned her oupa to pick her up too. Tertia-Lee is almost 5, so not too much work, as long as I let her into my craftroom (EEEKK!!!), she is happy.
I am having my regular scrapbooking class too - 4 sisters between 4 and 13! Should be fun, it always is, but I don't know if I will still be able to walk after all of that. LOL I just remembered - my beautiful room!
I have been playing with some more La La Land Crafts stamps from CHA (I think I am slightly obsessed) and loving each one more and more.All of them were coloured with my Copics and all cardstock is Bazzil. This one has little teeny pearls in her hair and her dress was glitterified with Stickles. The Dp is from a DCW paperstack that I got at CHA. Ribbon and trim is from Realy Reasonable Ribbon.
This one uses some freebie papers from a magazine. She had to get some real pearls of course and the shoes just 'had' to get the Stickle treatment. The die is another new one from CHA and the flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and my stash. The ribbon is from the local habby man.
How cute are these swimming stamps? This one was so bright that I did not need any more than one sheet of Kaisercraft paper. Even the 'ribbon' is from the same sheet of paper!
Here is the boy version. Don't you just love the goggles and feet? Papers are from a paperstack(DCW I think) the ribbon from Really Reasonable Ribbon and the charm from my local bead shop.

OMGoodness... your desk looks so neat and tidy but with a 5 year old and other kids wanting to get their hands on your stash one has to wonder how long that will last??
ReplyDeleteLove your cards, especially the lilac one with the bling!!
Am very impressed with the desk. After all the children have been crafting it might get a wee bit wrecked.
ReplyDeleteAll of these cards are a great match of image ,papers and accessories. Number 2 is my fave
You've done a great job with the tidying. Your cards are really lovely. Have a great day with all the young folk. [or was that yesterday?....maybe I should say hope you recover soon :-) ]

Lovely desk - so neat and tidy and ready for action. And 18 cards - that would probably take me weeks to complete! They are very nice cards - the images are all cute but I think my favourite has got to be the last - it's those flippers that do it :) Enjoy your busy week. Elizabeth x #70
ReplyDeleteWow - all those cards!!! So cute and yet such a spotless work desk!
ReplyDeleteOh, those cards are so cute, I can see why you’re hooked on them. It’s not a style I often do but now I’m wishing I had someone to make cute cards for.

Happy Crafting!
