My SURPRISE BLOG CANDY

Now come on you followers very few of you have guessed what I did that was new for me on my MAWTT challenge 65 - 'To Do List' card.

I tell you what ............ I will continue to promote this candy and say that those who have already had a guess have not yet got it correct, so please go back and have another go and those of you who haven't yet tried please go and take a look. I am now going to post this on my side bar as well.

Perhaps it's because you don't know what you could win that you are not trying or perhaps because it was in with the information about the card and the challenge that you didn't see it, but whatever - here is a pic of some bits I have got together already and there could be MORE added whrn I get home. (Depends if I get any more guesses).

So far there is a Lisa Bearnson 'Friends' mini album with all the bits included to make it up straight away, a fan with a stand ready to be made into a card or album, See-D's alphabet stamps, Distress Ink in Brushed Corduroy and a set of Tim Holtz clear stamps called 'Lost and Found'. (These are all brand new and unopened).

Now isn't that worth having a go for???

Go see what you can come up with and a little clue is .............  enlarge the pictures to see if that helps you.

I am not trying to get more followers by doing this but just to say thankyou to those who already are followers. So now it's up to you.

See you soon. Luv B xxxx

Christmas card - Don't forget my surprise candy

Happy Friday Folks - the weekend starts here.

In fact for me the week starts here. Ken's shoulder is much better and he has taken the sling off today, so thankyou to everyone who sent their good wishes to him. We both really appreciated your lovely comments. So he has decided to join Mum and me in Swanage for the week and Maddie is moving back in to look after the cats, so I am really pleased he will be with us and I am sure the sea air will help to get rid of the anaesthetic that is still in him and making him sleepy (or is that just a man thing????).


I just had to make a card this afternoon - really I should be packing, but I loved the challenge at Incy Wincy and the Colour Create Blog which is to make an all white card and you can use a coloured image. Hurrah, another Christmas card, I thought it fitted perfectly. I wanted to keep the image simple so I used a stencil, put it through the Big Shot with those lovely mats you use for the Impressabilities and Nestabilities and eh voila a fab image that I coloured up using DIs and a blending tool and edged with MS glitter glue. I also used a star embossing folder, an xcut snowflake punch and a MS border snowflake punch and some little gems.

I have a couple of other images similar to this that I experimented with but I don't have time to make them up into cards and perhaps will show you another time.

Right I must go and get some packing done before the family turn up for dinner.

Take care and watch out for more posts over the weekend.
