Too Cute To Spook!!

 Happy Monday everyone. Hope you are doing okay today. 

I have such a cute card to share with you. It is my DT piece for

where we are going all ghostly and creepy in our Too Cute To Spook Challenge.

This is my gruesome card...

...did you really think I could do gruesome!!??

I used this image from our sponsor Di's Digis and it was a pleasure to colour with my Promarkers.

 We have never been big on Halloween in our house and I can't imagine there will be very much Tricking or Treating this year but this little cutie will be sent to our Granddaughter Mollie. 

Hope your week ahead will be a good one xx

Add an animal

Happy Monday everyone!! After the manic last few weeks I have had I am so glad that this one has arrived as I am on annual leave!! Chance to recharge the batteries hopefully and catch up with friends and family and perhaps some Christmas shopping!! 

I am sharing my Cutie Pie DT card today where the theme is ADD A CUTE ANIMAL. I am still in full on Christmas production so chose Highland Christmas from our Sponsor Di's Digis.

Oh bother...I have just noticed the camera mark on Christmas!! Never mind, it can be our secret!!

I wish you a good week whatever you are up to and I will see you on Thursday with another Christmas card. Until then take care xx

Wrap up Warm

It's Christmas with The Cutie Pies time again!!

The theme this time is Wrap Up Warm and my DT piece is wrapped in a very stylish coat and scarf and so is her cute companion!!

She was coloured with Promarkers and the yummy scrummy papers are MFT Candy Land which I scruffed up for a change and kept the card flat for posting by not adding any extra embellishments. If you look closely you can see flocking on the furry elements.

It is hard to believe that we are already hurtling towards the festive season. I have even had my first mince pie of the year!! If you are busy making Christmas cards I do hope you will have one that you can bring along to share with us.

See you later in the week, all being well. Until then, take care xx

AYLI Boy or Girl?

Hello everyone. An easy peasy theme at

Boy or Girl?

I can't lie...cards of the male flavour scare me!! Cards for girls are so much easier with such  cute images, girly characters, flowers, papers and ribbons  at our disposal  which is why I have a baby girl card to share today. 

I used a super cute digi from Di's Digis and coloured it with Promarkers to make this cute card.

I hope to see you there.

Looking forward to a proper bloggy catch up this weekend and possibly some crafty time too. It has been full on in the Wills household of late and time for myself has been in short supply...never mind!!

See you soon xx

Wild Things

Hello fellow crafters. 

I have a card to share that I made to support 

I have been "meaning to" since Squirrel launched this brilliant challenge and took the opportunity of a rainy evening to do so (and, truth be told, buy a new digi image for the purpose!!)

Anyway, here it is...

 ...and I make no apology for the wonky snap (before you ask, I have not been at the Pimms!!), I mentioned rain but what I failed to say was it is accompanied by horrendous claps of thunder so my photography was rapid to say the least!!

I used scalloped tonic dies for the base and mat and coloured the Di's digis image with Promarkers to match the papers which are from a SheryK Designs digi paper set.

Anyway, can't hang about I'm a bit scared so need to seek refuge!!

Thank you for visiting and for your comments on my recent work, it's much appreciated xx

An apple a day

Hello everyone, hope you are well today. 

 I've been naughty (again!!) and I hold Lucy fully responsible, she MADE me buy some new images and I'm so glad she did because they are gorgeous and were an absolute bargain!!

Here's the first it's called An Apple A Day

I bought this image especially for this card, it's for a little boy whose Grandma keeps her horses here. He adores my Surprise so I coloured the image in her likeness and chose Doodlebug papers to compliment her bay colouring. The sentiment was stamped using an alphabet set from Inkydoodles.

Ooh and I used Jules' Sketch 15 too, if you are short of inspiration for a layout go take a look!!

Anyway I had better get a wriggle on, several workmates have had or will soon be having Birthdays so we are having a Girls Night Out here , good company and good food, what could be nicer!!?

Before I go I would like to play here

Cardz 4 Guyz #121 - It's Hip To Be Square

Moving Along With The Times #21 - Age related sentiment

Hello Friend

A couple of weeks ago Annie set me a challenge to create a bendy card...so I did!!

It was also the perfect opportunity to make something to support a couple of special challenges that are open at the moment.

It was really easy to do (just google bendicards...there are loads!!) so thanks for the shove Annie!! 

This is what it looks like from above.

We all know that as crafters we have to get all the latest stamps, papers and  dies (need I go on!!?) but what I didn't realize was that my Never Before Used Schtuff mountain also included digi stamps and magazine freebies too (shock horror!!) so I had a delve into the digi folder archive and used Surprise from Di's Digis and coloured the sweet little girls with pencils and blender. Purple is not my "go to" colour so that in itself was a challenge. Nevertheless I was really pleased with the result!! The sentiment was a magazine freebie and the centre of the flowers were pearled to echo the pretty flowers.

So, I am off to play at

Squirrel's Random Challenge - Friendship

Darnell's NBUS Challenge #5

Hello everyone. Hope that you had a good weekend and are ready for another new week.

I have a very CAS card to share today using a sweetie from Di's Digis.

She was coloured with Promarkers, cut out using MB Stitched layers matted onto a matching pink scalloped circle and the little tags were cut from a paper pad. Simples!!
