Hi all, i hope you all had a fabulous Easter weekend, i'm so looking forward to another long weekend this week.
Today i have a very simple card to share with you using one of the cute, totally non-scary monsters from the Squiggle Stamps Monster Mash set, which right now is at the bargain price of just £3.00.

Sarah's Cards April kit

I think i've fallen out of love with my blog lately, i really can't get into the swing of doing regular posts. I'm actually hardly doing any crafting at the moment, just my DT stuff which i still love, but in between i'm not even going into my craft room.


Last week the Sarah's Cards April kit, featuring Echo Park, For the Record, went out to subscribers, so i can now share a few cards i made with this gorgeous kit.

Japanese Dolly

I can't believe it's been over two weeks since i posted, where does the time go? I adore the new digi images that have recently been released over at Squiggle Stamps, and chose to use the Japanese Dolly on this cute little take out box.

Mother's Day

We have three busy days  here next week, starting this Sunday, which in the UK is Mother's Day, followed by our Son's 15th birthday on Monday and then it's my birthday on Tuesday. So we will have a full house on Sunday, with my parents and granparents coming for a roast lunch, then being joined later by my sister and her family for a party tea.
Here's the card i've just made for Mum, using only cardstock, a couple of MS punches, and a couple of cuts from the Cricut Home Accents cart.

Milk carton

Here's another little project i made with the Sarah's Cards March kit. If you would like to see how i made it check out the Sarah's Cards blog here.
This would be great to pop a small gift in for Mother's day or fill with mini chocolate eggs for Easter.

Mummy & Me

Here as promised is another one of the layouts i created at the Sarah's Cards retreat last weekend, (i've even scrapped a page since i've been home!). I'm not sure why i stopped scrapping and starting making cards because i still enjoy it. I had so much fun playing with these gorgeous MME Stella & Rose - Hazel papers, and that lace effect stamp stamps so cleanly, i just love it! The photo's are of Me and my Mum in 1968.

New sketch challenge

The new monthly sketch challenge has just been posted on the Sarah's Cards blog along with stunning examples by some of the design team. Vanessa has designed a great sketch for us this month.
As i was in the company of what i perceive to be some of the most talented scrappers in the UK, i made the most of all the creative vibes flying around and did a bit of scrapping myself, something i sadly don't have time to do very often, so i'm a little out of practice. But i managed to make this layout featuring a sunset photo taken on the evening of our wedding in Cyprus in 2005.
The gorgeous papers i used are all from MME Stella & Rose - Hattie .
