Hi Everyone. Happy Monday night. A very quick post for you tonight, so that I can ensure that my post catches feedburner! tonight's card uses Elegant Soiree and the Elegant Lines Designer Series Paper - a marriage made in heaven... oh... which is ALMOST the topic of the card !

Hi Everyone. Happy Sunday. I hope you have all had a fabulous weekend.

Unfortunately, there was a mix up and I only got the challenge a couple of hours before it was due to be loaded. Ooopsss. aaaaaarrrrrghhhh! the pressure. Seriously,... Read more →
Hi Everyone. Happy Thursday night. Tonight's card is a quick and easy card I made for Lou. It features the Make a Monster set. Now, I know you may have seen my monster mash card from a couple of posts ago - here - but I wanted to show you that it could actually be a little more versatile than for just cards for children. Then, I have a little treat for you. Some shots of our garden - and our regular visitor - Martha. So, here's my little monster card! The sentiment was typed up and printed on my... Read more →
