Well its morning tea break and I better get back to the kids if you have any questions drop me an e-mail!!

ME & MI MONDAY'S PROJECT 1

Well I am excited to bring to you "Me & Mi Monday's.'' Every Monday I will be show casing a new project that I have either randomly discovered while blog surfing, or odd bits and pieces that are around the house or in shops that can be decorated!!

I have been pondering about doing this for awhile and I took a good hard look at my blog and noticed that I have been only updating when participating in challenges etc which I totally love but can be a bit boring for the blog reader.

Anyhow lets get to my very first project!

I found these adorable craft paint pails at" The Warehouse" and knew that with a little TLC they would scrub up a treat!

You can decorate them in so many ways and fill them with so many different goodies I just couldn't wait to get my hands on them. I have also made a cute little 3by3 card to go with the pail.

I have filled them up with RJ's Raspberry Natural Licorice which coordinates beautifully with Riding Hood Red hehehe.

This is a simple first project but I think that its nice to have a gift on hand that you can whip up quickly, the longest part was taking the sticker off!

Well I hope that you will come and visit again any questions feel free to e-mail!!

Take care,

Amy

INKSPIRATIONS COLOUR CHALLENGE #10

Gee sorry I am running a little bit late tonight (lol) 

I really enjoyed playing with these colours today and thought that it was time to ink up my all time favourite SU Stamp Set "Wild About You''!!

I decided to make a tag type card just to be a little different!!  I love stacking all the animals on top of each other and they fit so perfectly on a tag.

I hope you all have had a great week and go check out Makeesha's blog here to participate in this challenge.

Fingers crossed, I am Looking forward to having some free time this week to check out all your blogs :)

INKSPIRATIONS SKETCH CHALLENGE #10

Boy oh boy !!! Where has the week gone? I am enjoying every bit of the school holidays so much so that I almost ran out of time for the challenge tonight!!!

That's the beauty about sketch's in no time one can whip up a card in minutes and this was the case tonight.

I love this gorgeous pear paper and no matter how many times I flipped past it somehow I just really wanted to use it...so I based the colours and stamp set around this!

Sorry this is a short post, if you have any questions about the card drop me an e-mail!!!

I am off to Tracey's for a relaxing night!!!

MOJO MONDAY SKETCH #93

Howdy folks!

Today is a beautiful cold rainy day, and what better day to pull out my favourite stamp set SU "Fifth Avenue" and spend the afternoon with her. hehehe

Like I have said before I am really into paper flowers and couldn't resist to make another one for this Mojo Monday sketch.

I must say I have never ever put grey and brown together but got the Inspiration from the wool that I am using to knit my son's hat!! Hehe

I kind of deviated away from the sketch a little but she is one huge rose to stick on so I had to compromise a bit.

Anyhow I hope you are all having a lovely day,

Take care,

Amy

INKSPIRATIONS INSPIRATION CHALLENGE #9

Hey There!

Can you believe that another week has gone!

Thank goodness for Makeesha's challenges at the moment, I am not sure if I would get any stamping done.

Well after good amount of thinking........pondering I finally got this card finished.

This was such a fun challenge to do, if you would like to participate click here and it will take you to the lovely Makeesha's blog.

The piece of artwork in the Inkspirational photo really appealed to me, so I tried to imitate the image on my card, I cut a piece of water colour paper and just randomly coloured the background with my paintbrush and ink pads.  I also loved the little black tea pot in the back ground so I used black as an accent to bring it all together.

The stamp set used is SU "Garden Whimsy", I paper tolled out the butterfly and flower to give a bit of dimension to the card.

Make sure you take the time to check out the other design team members......
