Frazzled Fran

 My word, don't Fridays roll around quickly? Still, as lockdown restrictions are relaxed I daresay we will soon be looking forward to weekends where we can go where we like!! for now though, I am quite happy pottering about in the garden.

Anyway, I am here to share a very sweet card that I really enjoyed colouring with my Promarkers.

 It is my DT piece  for 

where it is always anything goes just as long as your card is hand coloured...easy!!

 Again, I used the Pebbles inc. pad that was still on my desk that had a perfect teacup paper. 

Just to finish off I used a matching piece of seam binding and a dinky little paper flower on the cut out that was also in tha paper pad. It looks like the perfect card to send with another of my hugs!!

Whatever you have planned, I hope it is a good weekend for you xx

Naughty List

Hello friends, hope you have had a good week. Mine has whooshed by and I expect yours has too.

I have a tall card to share today, it's my inspiration for

Our sponsor this time is Oddball Art and I used  Naughty List. I coloured her with my Promarkers used a printed Nitwits paper as a background.

I had some scraps of lime green mirror board so used them to frame the image and sentiment.

Hope you have a good weekend xx

Colour Crazy Craft Challenge

Another weekend is almost upon us and (forgive me for stating the obvious!!) we are beyond half way through May which is amazing. I am rather liking the warmer, sunnier days we are enjoying of late, I think it makes us all feel a little bit better even if there are troubles in our lives.

I will be "troubled" later today when my waist is likely to be larger!! My good friend Kim celebrated her 60th Birthday on Tuesday so a group of us are taking her out for Afternoon Tea at a very nice hotel in Sherborne, so I am looking forward to that very much. It is also Martin's weekend off and we usually take a trip out which will probably involve cake too. Sunday's dog walk might just have to be a biggy!!

Anyway, before all that I have my DT piece for 

I used Veggie Veronica Vegan Workout from Oddball Art Co, our Sponsor.

I really enjoyed colouring her and chose some nice bright  papers. The layout, in case you are wondering, is another one of Jules'.

The beauty of this challenge is that as long as your image is hand coloured, with whatever medium you like, you can join in. Hope to see you there!!

Wishing you a lovely weekend xx

GDT Colour Crazy Challenge - Baby Deer

Hello everyone.

I have another Christmas card to share today. This time for



Let me introduce Baby Deer...isn't she adorable?!

Coloured, as usual, with my Promarkers and this time I inked a stamped background panel with versamark ink and brushed very old Imagination Crafts shimmer powder over the top. For a little dimension I raised the image on foam pads in front of it.

I hope you have something nice planned for the weekend. We intend to go to Weymouth and have a wander around the town and a walk along the beach, although the weather forecast looks pretty ghastly at the moment...fingers crossed!!

Bye for now xx
