Everyone's favourite right!!

Now I know you can't see the glitter and shimmer very well but believe me she is shimmering to within an inch of her life!!  I have added glamour dust to the hat, flowers and all the background papers.  The image is of course Happy Mail from Belles 'n Whistles.  I love colouring her!  The paper is Double Dutch - Lily Bee Design, which is gorgeous.  I have added flowers which my gorgeous friend Laurie gave me from my birthday.

Tag It! at MAWTT

Morning Everyone!

2 more sleeps and I am jetting off to the sunshine.  Can you tell I am excited!  Cannot wait!  I won't keep going on about it though!  I will schedule some posts for when I am away so you won't have time to miss me! 

Today we have a brand new challenge at Moving Along With The Times and I am the hostess this week.  My challenge this week is:

"Tag It"

So any kind of tag or a tag on a card.  We are sponsored this week by "Stitchy Bear Stamps" and we were kindly given some images to use this week.  Here is my tag:

The image is "In the Meadow We Can Build a Snowman" which you can get here.  I used the pre-coloured image.  You also get some matching papers with this kit which I have used with some bazzill cardstock.  The snowflake border is from Martha Stewart and the snowflakes are a Die-namics die called Let It Snowflake.  I have added loads of glamour dust and pearls!  With some ribbon from my stash.  

Please pop on over to the main challenge blog to see what the rest of the girlies have been up to!  

So that's my last post before I go away.  As I said I will be scheduling some posts so I will be back soon!  I hope you don't forget me and come back to see me next week!

I Love You This Much!

Hi Lovely Ladies!

I hope you are all well.  

I am counting the hours this week!  Need to get to Saturday and then its off to the sunshine for 2 weeks!!  Can't wait!  

I am here with you today to share some more inspiration from the Elisabeth Bell Digital collection.  Today I have used - I Love You This Much - which is one of my favourites of the digital images!  Here is my project:

The photos look a bit blury, I hadn't noticed that before now!!  I teamed her up with paper from MME - On the Bright Side.  The sentiment is from Whimsy Stamps Friendship Tickets and thought this sentiment was great with this image.  The flowers are Mulberry and I just added glitter and pearls.  

Hop on over to the Digi Bells Blog to see lots more inspiration from the Design Team!

That's it from me.  I will see you very soon.

Love and Hugs

Its been a while since I've been on here!  Where does the time go!  I am so excited, only 2 more sleeps and I will be off to Yorkshire to meet up with Laurie, Lisa, Claire and Debs, my teamies from MAWTT!!  I CANNOT WAIT!!  Will also be meeting up with other blogging buddies over the course of the weekend!

THEN, I am off on my hols!  Two whole weeks in the sunshine!! 

Anyway, I must calm down and get down to business!  We have a brand new challenge at Moving Along With The Times today.  The gorgeous Lisa is our hostess and the theme is:

"In The Dark"

So use lots of dark colours or anything that come out in the dark!

I have used "Happy Halloween Cat Silhouette"

I'm not really into Halloween as much as our Lisa is but I did enjoy doing this card!  I decided to do a circular card, I inked up the edges with a black chalk pad.  The papers are from MME Mischievous and the bats are printed from the PC.  I added some black pearls and I used my Cheery Lynn Colonial Lamp Post again.
