Card and Gift Box

These Tag a Bag boxes are so versatile.  They are large enough to fit a decent sized gift and can basically be filled with anything.  I made a similar set for my Dad's birthday. Dad even kept the box as he said it would be very useful to keep stuff in.

My 4 Legged Family Members

I just love animals and can't stand to see them abused and neglected.  I thought I would introduce you to some of my four legged family members.

This is Schiska, our beautiful girl.  She is incredibly loud and loves to go walking with me.



Schiska

This Bandit, our gorgeous and very shy boy, but incredibly loving.

Bandit

These are our Wiltshire sheep.  They are self shedding and very friendly.  I named these ones as we are breeding with them.  The Ram is a real character but probably because I named him Cecil.  He eats right out of my hand and is known to be incredibly mischievous.

I read that if you look after your chooks, they will reward you with lots of eggs.  This is definitely true and I have heaps of eggs which I give away to all my two legged family members.

Thanks for stopping by to say hi.

A simple card

This is a quick and easy card.  I used Pistachio Pudding cardstock but discovered that I didn't have any matching ribbon and the white organza ribbon just didn't work.  I watered down some pistachio pudding reinker and dyed the white ribbon.  I made mine quite light but the more dye you add to the water, the deeper the colour.  I also used the Simply Pressed Clay and the Blossom Mold.  I dyed the clay with the reinker before I placed it in the mold.

Thanks for stopping by.

Why I have Neglected my Blog

I have been busy with my little granddaughter, Savanna.  Isn't she just a cutie.  I have still being crafting in between so will have a few cards to show you over the next few weeks.  My daughter and her husband have moved over to New Zealand from the UK last October so now I get to spend time with my little granddaughter.



Off to see the cows

Thank goodness she hasn't learnt to open the gate yet!!!!

And a card which I made ages ago.  I have been going through all my cards and found quite a stash that I need to put up on my blog.  I love the colours of this cards.  I stamped the clock onto vellum and fussy cut it so that the stamping on the card would show through.

Thanks for visiting.
