Im back!

Hi there,
wow! its been a while since last posting.
But I'm finally back in action. We've had weddings and parties and alsorts lately, so ive been thrown back into creating with full motivation (just not as much time).
Here is one of the cards to begin this 'new season' of card making. It was for my brother-in-law's wedding.
Will be posting many more soon!

A pearl...

Wow, its been a while since last posting! Its been a very busy period for us as of late.

Yesterday I was asked if I could make a card using a 'pearl', so i put this one together. I feel as though my inspiration has left me a bit as I'm now suffering slight morning sickness... yes, we have number 2 on the way! What a blessing!


But for near future im just taking it one day at a time, resting as much as poss, and trying to preserve every last ounce of energy for my wee 8 month old. And yippee, he's crawling!!





Thanks for stopping by,



Amy

More Jars!

The inspirations just kept coming... and so did the jars!
I threw together some YUMMY choco delights, layered them and here we have it, a hot choco drink for a cold winters night.
I wasnt quite sure where the label looked best, so excuse the lack of presentation. I'm still just giving it all a go! :-)

I woke up this morning inspired to have a bit of creative fun in the kitchen, and somehow these cute wee 'gifts in jars' came to mind and action! I have a fantastic recipe for cinnamon and honey granola, so i threw it together, popped it in these jars, layered it with dried fruit. And Vwala!


Now I just have to think of someone to give them to! ;-)

Here are a few recent ones. I've really only had a few days here and there to be able to sit on my cards this week. We've had family here for the past 2 months, so in between traveling, being a mummy and a hostess for 4 others, I've managed to make the odd one or two.






I made these two handbag cards for my darling wee nieces who both have a birthday coming up! They always seem to be holding a bright and sparkly handbag in their hot little hands, so I thought that this would be just perfect for them!

Ive been wanting to add a few verses to my cards since the beginning, but have never had many inspirations. So here are a few of my first 'verse cards'.

This was a bit of a fun 'throw-together'! I just kept on adding, and this is what came about!






This is my sister's favourite, it was actually a fun one to make and to play around with! and it was great being able to find another way to add verses.




I made this card for my younger Brothers 21st! He absolutley Loved it, and he even told me so, which was a great suprise and treasure for me, as he is a typical bloke and doesnt usually openly express delight in such things as cards.

I made this wee peanut family for our 'pre-birth educator'. I just love the peanuts!
I made these little boots out of FIMO. Its such a fantastic product! It can be a little heavy on the card if too much is used, but it really is super stuff!

My sister-in-law is a runner, and she'd just run a half marathon and had come 3rd! so out came this card! Its another FIMO card, which was SO much fun to make. Timely, but fun.









And here's my baby collection. I still have a lot of ideas for more baby cards, i just have to get the ideas onto card.
