Blue skies and a day filled with crafting...

That's my day today.
Got a few crafty commissions to finish for this week, so that will keep me out of trouble.....
Yesterday we had snow and sleet up here, today there is blue sky..... although it's freezing! And according to the weather man, we have a yellow warning out for more snow and high winds..... perfect weather for staying inside and crafting....
Here are a couple of cards that I wanted to share with you all.....
Birthday time......


I love the designs that Do Crafts brought out with the uber talented John Byars...... I love working with these designs. So easy to leave plain or colour - everything works with them.
I'd love to see him do a Christmas range as I think the hand drawn sketch look would be amazing.

This is my next card,


I hope you have a craft filled week and enjoy whatever you get up to.
Happy crafting

P.S - as I finish this post and look up, I see the blue sky has now become white and the snow is falling again..... lightly, but it is falling.... staying inside and crafting it is then! lol

It's a very special day today!

My son Kris turns 25 today.....
25!!! How the devil did THAT happen!!!

I couldn't be prouder of the wonderful man he has become. I fell in love with him before he was born and I am so amazingly lucky to have been blessed with Kris as my son and that I was part of the adventure that his childhood was.


This is the card that I made for him today.....



Happy birthday Kris!!!
Here's to the next 25 years.....
Love you to the moon and back xxx

Hopefully by the time this post goes up, he will have opened his prezzies and read the card.... lol

Have a great crafty day, whatever you are all doing.

Oopsie...... time has just run away again....

Wow!
Time flies..... I'd love to say that I have been relaxing and doing nothing.... but those of you who know me will know that just never happens with me!
I have had lots of crafty orders over the last few weeks, and as they are given to the people they have been commissioned for I will be able to share them with you..... Glitter glasses, cards, pictures and 3d art are just some of the things I have been up to.
Today I wanted to share a couple of my commissions with you...





 I love all forms of crafting and this year I have already started making my Christmas prezzies.... (all the special people in my life are getting handcrafted gifts this Christmas)......
I always come back to papercrafting though..... totally addicted to that...
What crafty things have you been up to?

Happy crafting
