*sigh*

You can check out the full Christmas 2010 release here, then go nag your favourite stash seller to make sure and order your faves - good plan, no? ;D

Catch you all laters...I'm off to sniff some rubbah...

Let's go!


Look! Look!
I got the cute thang back!!!

I teamed up two all time favourites of mine - Skateboard Dude from Stampavie and some oh-so-strokable MME Ooh La La for him papers...*sigh*



This fab li'l fella {I love Gillian Roberts' illustrations - they're so like the Horror's!!!} fits in with 2 challenge theme's - My Time To Craft's "Check it Out" and Stampavie and more's "Anything Goes"
and I used the fab sketch over Simon Says Challenge this week {yeah, I know my rectangle's actually a circle - a little artistic licence please?!} - lots of fab inspiration over on all blogs so do go have a peek :D

I'll catch y'all laters!
Hugs,


Eeeeeek - almost forgot!!!
Have you seen the new Stampavie Christmas images????!!!
Cuuuuuuute!!!!!
Let me know which is your favourite - Dearest Deer has definitely stolen my heart!

B is for...

Heya all :D
I have another bit of whimsical pretty-prettiness to show today - apologies to anyone who came looking for a cute card!



I don't have a whole lot to add about this li'l hanger - lots of my beloved crackle paint and crumpled up twill came out to play, it's sounding like a shabby disaster already!



It does kinda fit in with the Crafty Angels "Shabby Chic" challenge, although yeah, more shabbiness than chicness methinks!

Hope you're having a great day!

All star's...

...no crafty goings on today peeps - we've been holed up warm & dry in the cinema watching Shrek Forever After.
We're now mostly singing away to some Donkey greats and pretending to be the Pied Piper ;D

So I thought I'd share these little photo-cards with you...


These were made with the fab CleoCrafts June kit - the kits sold out pretty quickly, but there are still some of the Mamarazzi bits n pieces available here

Thanks for visiting and your ever fab comments - they're very much appreciated :D

Hope you're having an All Star kinda day!

{dreams}...

...the cutesy-card-mojo seems to have gone walkabout today, so I had a li'l play with the pretty-pretty-mojo instead...


...and whipped up a little notebook kinda thing...
{I think it's a 7gypsies book, but I'm not 100% sure!}



...I'm not entirely convinced by it - too pink, too messy lookin'...just too not me perhaps?
Ah well, the fact that it's not a card means I can enter it into this weeks Crafty Catz "Anything but a Card" challenge - there's one thing it's got going for it!


Hope you're enjoying your day!

Annie

Happy Saturday!

Ribbon RAK...

It may come as a surprise to the more newbie visitors of my blog to learn that one of my very first DT spots was for an online ribbon store - yeah, me the string fetishist...
I've always adored ribbon, I just don't ever seem to actually use any...
So I've had a sort through the ribbon piles {it was great fun!} and I now have two bundles that I thought I'd pass on to someone who'll actually use them...

There's a soft n' satiny pile:


And a pretty, pretty sheer pile:




Think you can make use of them?
Yes?
Then leave me a message saying which you'd prefer :D

Oh and don't worry - I still have tonnes left for me to drool over!
Hugs,

Get a head start? You're kidding, right?


...We all know this'll be the only Christmas card I make 'til December...

We're welcoming some new DT members over at CCT this week {as well as celebrating Christmas...}, Hi girls *waves*



Hmmmmm, that's about it from me today {if there are any card details you want to know, feel free to shoot me an email} - when did life get so busy, busy, busy?

Hugs,

Just because...

I have some Sarah Kay sweetness to share today - PTW's "In the Garden" challenge had me itching to get inking one!


Head on over to Dies to Die For if you're in need of a Sarah Kay fix :D

Ooooooh have you seen the Stampavie blog today? The new DT members have been announced! A big welcome to you all from me :D

'Kay that's it from me - thanks for hoppin' along!

Monday, Monday...

I have another quick li'l card to share today - yeah, I know, all my cards are quick! I don't have the patience to spend more than 20minutes on a card - I'm very much the instant gratification type...

Sooooooo, I couldn't resist inking up this cutie-tootie pair when I saw the ABC challenge "You & Me" theme:

Dontcha just love 'em?
They're exactly like the Horror's would be if they weren't Horror's...

Have a great day!

Summer days...


Hey everyone, nothing crafty to show today, just some pretty pictures instead :D

I had a gorgeous li'l parcel arrive from the fabby peeps over at dotcomgiftshop recently.



I'm often asked just how close to the sea we actually live...


...so I hung the pretty, pretty bunting on the {very mucky!} balcony so I could show you.
Really though, why did none of you remind me to wait til the tide was out to take the pictures?!



And look - there's loads of it! At least 25 feet of pretty, pretty buntingness...*sigh again*...

I highly recommend you head on over to the dotcomgiftshop between 7.30 and 9.00 tonight - they've kindly offered free postage during every World Cup match, so I'll see you over there - I need some of these, one of these,
definitely one of these and oooooooooh, how cute are these?!

Hugs,

Cuddle up...

Hey all :D

Another quicky post today - I just wanted to share this little trio of cuties...


Stamps: Cuddle Up, Picket Fence and Sentiments 1 all by Rachelle Anne Miller for Stampavie
Papers: MME So Sophie

While having a bit of a blog mooch {a desperate in-need-of-inspiration kinda thing!}, I noticed the latest Craftalicious challenge is cute - I couldn't resist inking up this stamp, how damn cute are these three??!!


A big thank you for all the Birthday wishes...for those who wondered yes, I am still 23...

Have a great Saturday!

Dear Blog...

...I'm sorry I've neglected you...what can I say other than I'm crap {and let's be honest, you kinda knew that already}?
I promise I'll try my very hardest to be more attentive to you from now on...well, provided Jacob Black doesn't come howling along distracting me...

..............................................................


So anyways, I have a little something to share with you all today...being as it is a *ahem* "special" day for me and all that...



A li'l bit of sweet schtuff for the Anyone for Anya "Anything Goes" challenge :D





Love these Sweet Toooth Critter's from TGF {and eeeeeek!!! DTDF has them in the sale - whoooo-hoooo!}

I'll catch y'all laters - I'm off to eat cake ;D

Hugs,
