Cat update

Hi just quick update re my brothers cat.
Well she is ok no lasting damage and nails will be ok. She stayed in for 24hours slept most of it and kids where good fairly quiet so she was ok. She has now been back and forwards in the garden not digging so they will have to clear up after her but staying close to the house. SIL is making flyers for the neighbourhood to warn and the RSPCA are looking into it. Their neighbour cat hasn't reappeared so just hope she has found a new home and nothing bad has happened.

Creative Inspiration challenge 46- colour theme


Massive apology what happened to Wednesday and today my brothers cat came home with a snare attached and she had ripped her nails out trying to get free thank god she snapped the line or we might not have her. So i had to take her to the vet painkillers and antibiotics and a bill later we got home. The neighbours cat has been missing for nearly 2 weeks so makes you wonder. Well onto this weeks challenge over at Creative Inspiration
This week we have a colour challenge for you, Pink & Cream.


I have use a digi stamp from Dotties world from their Sugar and Spice collection. Isn't she cute. I have coloured with Promarkers and all the papers are left overs. The layout is from Friday Sketchers and the gems are from papermania and flowers from my stash. I think she is picking the flower for her friend.

Our prize is a $20 Shopping Spree from our monthly sponsor:

Shades of grey

Now isn't he the cutest. This reminds me of my son and nephew both enjoyed pottering round the garden when they where little. Done in shades of grey reminds me of the old black and white pictures. The shades are a little more vivid in the flesh but the flash has taken some of it out.



The image is from Mo's digital pencil just love her work and the challenge this week is Shades of Grey.
The layout is from Crafty Catz and Dianne came up with this i think for the simple monotone of this it has worked well. Papers are from CCSR. Coloured with promarkers. Grey satin ribbon. Flower from stash. Few papermania gems in the corner and a larger grey gem brad for the flower centre.

Tilda's passion for promarkers

This week’s challenge over at Passion for Promarkers has been chosen by Anjie their GDT and she has chosen a lovely colour scheme for us to use - ‘pastel green and blossom’.
I have used some old papermania paper from a pack i bought a few years ago. Tilda is from a kit i got last summer. Pink satin ribbon. I have left the sentiment off till i know what i will use it for.


This also fits the theme of Pink, white na green over at Paper Play.

Pixie cottage thank you

Isn't this stamp lovely got it with another in my recent blog candy win from Tara. Gosh I had been trying to get hold of a few of the goodies in my winning candy, but wasnt having much luck so this was extra sweet.


Well I have made her this card as a thank you, hope she likes it. Layout is this weeks challenge at Creative Inspirations monday challenge which i found a challenge but think it worked in the end. Image is a Pixie Cottage which i coloured with my promarkers and 3d glossed the red heart and the shoes. Doesnt really show but gives a lovely shine. Paper from my stash and the blue is also from the candy. Ribbon blue bows from stash.
