Today i've actually managed to do 2 cards, Yay!! Although at one point i was ready to pull out all of my hair as everytime i sat down someone wanted something, my kids are teens and they're more demanding than ever!


Anyway the first one is for this wks http://papertakeweekly.blogspot.com challenge, it's the first one i've entered one and i thouroughly enjoyed it. The sketch is this one.
















And here's my interpretation, i know it's not perfect but i'm happy with it. I used the gorgeous Forever friends stamp thats been watercoloured. The papers are from a disc i have. I've added a burgandy ribbon, some cream mini brads and a sentiment by Anita's. Please be honest with me!

Well the postman came today and he arrived with my Bigshot, you've no idea how big my grin was!! I'm delighted with it, and it was a bargain, it cost me £60 and that was with a starter set with a couple of wee dies, multi purpose platform etc and free p&p, i had a wee play but i need to go shopping lol well thats my excuse anyway!! I now need to buy thousands and thousands of dies hee hee.
On my blog hopping i found a brilliant blog, Fiona is actually giving away Gorjuss Girl stamps to celebrate her son Adams 7th Birthday, go check it out! http://fionajcardsandmore.blogspot.com/ Good luck to all that take part!
it's a prefect blog candy for me, dunno whether you noticed but i lurve Gorjuss girls lol.
Well still no card made, so instead i'm going to watercolour some images i've stamped so i can get a card done tomorrow instead....(she says).
See ya, Tash xxxxx

Hello!! Well no orders today, you know how i said i can play with my new toys today? and you'll also know what happens when you spend 4 days solid days crafting and have 3 teens and a man (with the mental age of 3!) living with you? Thats right the house looks like the Dingles have moved in! So no playing just cleaning grrrr, But i won't despair theres always tomorrow lol, untill something else comes up of course!
All orders were collected and they went down well, it doesn't matter how long i've been craftng for or how well my customers may know me i STILL feel that little flicker in my tummy that they won't like them. Thankfully noone has yet turned around and said "i hate it" even though i've made it clear that i won't be offended by it, i'd be more offended if they weren't honest with me and complained after they left, everyones taste is different after all.
I'm going to go blog hopping lol, tbh i've been looking at the blogs for yrs but never had the guts to do my own especially when you look at some of them IE All the things i love, i drool on there it's embarassing!! lol. I was talking to another blogger (Blinkiefairy-glitterhappy thanks hun x) who told me to go for it so here i am!
Anyway my blog is far too quiet please please leave a comment not like i'm begging or anything :) Tash x
PS: Piccies to follow!

Crikey what a day! What started off as having 2 orders quickly became 4, i even had one put through my letterbox whilst still in bed at 6am, on of my regular customers was on her way to work and knew i wouldn't be up! Trouble is they all wanted them for tomorrow so no time to sit faffing about which to do first or what to do it was a case of get on with it now!
Anyway i got them all done, apologies for no pics i'll upload them tomorrow as it's late now.
Before i go though just want to brag about my goodies that arrived today......yep new stamps!!! I got sugar nellie Lola with flowers, Sugar Nellie Sweet & Sassy, Stampavie/Rachelle Ann Miller (love her stamps!) Jump in my pouch, Mouse hug & Lily picking flowers, and of course a Magnolia Fall Standing Tilda! My week wouldn't be complete without a new Tilda! Also got some bits i bought from EBay flowers,ribbon, brads and Gems. I also got my confirmation email to say my Bigshot has been despatched i can't wait!!!!
Ok so enough blabbing i've posted a pic of a card i done last wk.
Night, Tash xxxx
