Tissue box central!!!!
Class last night was great fun, we started at 4 and finished up at 8.30.
Once again I pushed the limits by adding extra people to list class list, thanks to Denise's friend who was coming up from Wellington... we had just enough tissue boxes... yep that's right... no big ones left anywhere... lucky they came into a Spotlight store down in windy Wellington on the Friday before the class..... phew!
The top two have been created by Tash, and bottom one from Michelle.... I also have a beautiful Prima page to show you (when I get a photo of it!!) If you want to take a gander at more of the projects from last night.. pop over to Viv's.

Here's another card I did on Saturday... I was on such a roll that they got made thick and fast.
I don't very often do Just Magnolia challenges.. not sure why as it is such a neat challenge site.

What??? No Patterned paper????
What on earth was Get Sketchy thinking off when they set this challenge!!!! My beloved paper just sat there while I struggled along without using it!!! While I'm not terribly impressed with the whole thing, the card actually turned out OK!!!

I must say... even though I still love my rubber, I am starting to become a big fan of digi images. I somehow got onto this new challenge site via SNR Card Universe. I decided to use their free digi and join in Ildi Co's challenge. Go over and check them out.
Back to work tomorrow... sigh.... have alot more cards to show you so... will upload another one tomorrow. Until then... have a great Monday!!!
Vintage sweety
I did a massive amount of cards yesterday... made up for the dry spell I've been having lately. This one I did for Allsorts Challenge.. was going to put on last night but I see this morning I missed the deadline! Oh well that's what happens when you are in a different time zone!
It's a sunny could spring day outside today... I have a kitchen pantry that has my name on it that desperately needs cleaning....

Prima flowers
I just can't seem to get enough of the new Prima (or any!!! when I think about it) flowers. It is a rare day that I dont have a flower on my card!.
This beauty flower matches in perfectly with my sassafras lass paper.
I followed sketch design from Delightful Sketches.
Not a very nice day here today... so maybe get a few cards done... or I could tidy my craft room!!!! Nah!!!
have a great weekend

15 min card
Woophee... I am child free!! Cameron has gone to her friends house till 3pm. I dropped Bee of at Denise's to play with Neeky. I am supposed to do "things" around the house on this bright sunny day. But thought I would have some fun first with the Get Sketchy girls.
It only took 15 mins... so still have time to pull some weeds before I head out again.

Yahoo its Friday
After an extremly busy day today at work I am glad to come home to the fire going and the thought of relaxing, stamping, baking with the kids, is just what the doctor ordered!! Having a quiet weekend, maybe catch up with Viv, then meander around to Denise's to see what yummy new stamps she has bought lately .... ahhhh what a great way to spend the weekend.
Anyhoo.. enough dreaming... onto the card... A Spoon Full of Sugar has called for "distressing", something I do with ease it seems.!!!
