Kwerner #53 & Mojo Monday #88 combined!









FINALLY....... I managed to get some challenges done! This week is panning out to be busy and hectic, have had my youngest off school the last 2 days - which means no work for me, have had a week of meetings and busy busy times!!! - such as life!!!! Anyhow back to the challenges - decided to combine mojo and Kwerner today to make life easier, i have used summer sun, basic black, pacific point, riding hood red and whisper white cardstock and inks, have versamarked summer sun card with seeing spots stamp set (thought i had better pull this one out of the dark to see some ink LOL), and have used good morning sunshine dsp and of course RH red ribbon.
I wasn't looking forward to using these colours - but funily enough the card came together quickly and easily!!! Hope everyone is having a good week!!!! thanks for stopping by......

Mojo Monday #86



Well what do you know.... i finally got some stamping done!!!! I have finished TWILIGHT and then watched the movie, so thought i had better update my blog - it has been a while!!!
Decided to go outside my comfort zone today and use colours that i don,t normally use ( as in stay away from choc chip LOL). I used the new in colours - pacific point, baja breeze and pink pirouette ink and card stock, good morning sunshine dsp, priceless and like it a latte stamp sets, i know latte has retired but i really wanted to use it!!!! Hopefully i will get some time in the weekend to do some more stamping!!! Right - time to organise tea and boys, have great weekends, and thanks for stopping by.

Kwerner Challenge # 50



Hi, well i seriously dithered with this card, this was my 3rd attempt at it so 3rd time lucky (i hope) i used Bali Breeze DP (forgot it had retired - nevermind) eastern blooms and one of a kind stamp sets, flower fusion 1 & 2 and so saffron buttons out of button latte, colours are rose red, choc chip, so saffron, whisper white and tempting turquiose, i really did not want to add that turquoise ribbon, but its the only thing i had in that colour (apart from cardstock) so however i hope it doesn't look that "out there"?. I well and truly used lots of different embellishments today!!!! Well roll on tomorrow - kids back to school and me back to work, i have enjoyed the holidays but will be pleased to get back into routine, i have really missed working( as dumb as that sounds) but as it is my first proper job in 7yrs i am loving it!!!!!!! Right i had better go and organise tea and drag all the school stuff out for tomorrow!!! Thanks for visiting.

Mojo Monday #83



I have finally made it back to blogging world yay!!!! I thought i would have lots of time in the holidays to stamp but turns out i haven't as it is all about the kiddlies of course and keeping them happy, they don't really want to watch mum stamping... LOL. So anyway i needed to make a birthday card for my cousin's little boy who turned 2 today, so decided to use mojo monday for it, i used tangerine tango and pacific point cardstock with good morning sunshine DSP, i am loving the new in colours, my original plan was to stamp the chicken out of Good Friend stamp set but after cutting up all the card stock i realised that the chicken wouldn't fit (doh) so had to settle for the lion out of wild about you, love the new in-colour ribbons too (thanks Trace).
Anyway had better fly, wanna get organised and watch the final of Dancing with the Stars - whoose gunna win do you think???? Anyway back to mother and wife duties...... thanks for visiting.
