Sugar Bowl Extra Monthly Challenge

See I told you I was trying to make up for the lack of cards 3 in one day!

As you have probably noticed I did a little bit of shopping for Sugar Nellie Stamps. I am absolutely Mad about them! They are just so awesome to use and some great fun designs!

Here is a card for the 'Sugar Bowl Extra Monthly Challenge' the theme was 'Beads' it was really good fun making my own beads and definitely something you will see more of! I love doing challenges, I get to try so many things that I wouldn't otherwise try. I hope you like my card I used Sugar Nellie's 'Sweet n Sassy' Stamp coloured with Prismacolor Pencils. She's so cute!

Sketch Staurday Challenge

Hi to all!
I haven't had a lot of time for my blog the last couple of weeks, going back to work was a bit of a shock after 3 weeks off! But I am back in to routine again or trying!
Here is the Sketch for this weeks Sketch Saturday Challenge http://sketchsaturday.blogspot.com Check them out

Here is my go at it:

I used a Sugar Nellie Stamp 'Custard' it's absolutely adorable! and really good for using my Prismacolor Pencils with.

The papers are a bunch I got for Christmas and I'm not 100% sure of what they are!

How scary! 2008 went by so quick!
I'm really lucky and do not have to go back to work until the 13th of Jan, So have lots of Craft time ahead of me in the next couple of weeks!
I got some really fab bits for Christmas my other half got me loads!
He got me Prismacolor Pencils which are amazing!, Doodlebug Velvet Flock and Glue (I haven't actually tried yet!), My first Magnolia Rubber Stamp!!! and His parents got me 3 different pots of Flower soft, with this fab Lamppost Flower soft Stamp that you can change the type of leaves you stamp on it! I love it all and oh nearly forgot my Wings & Flower CD from Little Big Tree which is awesome specially when you want layered or decoupaged flowers. You can make them in jiff! and great for my 10 year old sister Ana to use! She loves Crafting!

Here is my First ever Scrapbook Page! I made it in October and here it finally is!
