I made a real effort to have a nice tidy table for today. It was so messy yesterday, but I sorted thought all the scraps and put them away.
The only thing is, when it's like this I think I have so much room...what can I make?! And the mess starts all over again!
If you want to join in the fun go to Stamping Ground.
Here is my card for the Pink Stamper Challenge to make a card with a bird on it.
I used Winter Woodland Cartridge and cut the bird out at 3". The paper is from Laura Ashley and the stamp is Sunbeam Stamp
I found this cool blogfest as well, It's called Sweet City of Mine. You need to do a project about your favourite city and post it on the 21st March, but you can link up now. Just visit Holly's blog for more details, and there is some yummy candy to be won!
Thanks for the visit and have a happy WOYWW

Is it Spring yet?
My little boy is 4 and he has been asking for most of winter when it is going to be spring. We told him in March. Yesterday he said "It's March tomorrow, that means it spring, and I don't have to wear my coat to school!" I think he was very shocked that it was still freezing outside and he needed not only his coat, but also his hat! Then I saw the Peachy Keen challenge to make a gift with a spring theme. So I thought I would make him a little bit of spring! I made these little bags, I am going to fill them with some treats and put them on the table so my kids can have them as a treat after school. Hopefully that will help make up for the lack of spring sunshine!!

Shape Card Challenge
Hello, I hope you had a nice weekend. Mondays mean Fantabulous Cricut Challenge. This week is to do make a shaped card rather than a square or rectangle. I have made a card in the shape of an 'E'. I have made it for my son. I have wanted to write him a little note to say that I am proud of him and all the hard work he does at school, and his other activities.
I used Plantin SchoolBook, flipped and welded the letter. I used the shadow feature and the cut the letter out normal in patterned paper and white so I can write a message. It is about 15cm tall. The paper is K&Co.

Swirls & Twirls
For the challenge at Cooking with Cricut to make some thing swirls and twirls I have made a little gift bag using Plantin Schoolbook. The swirl was cut from Accent Essentials. I used acetate then used liquid pearls on it. The stamp is from a Penny Black set.

I made this for a thank you gift for someone. I filled it with sweeties for her. So I made a card as well.

I am also entering this into Flaunt It Friday Challenge to make a bag or box.
Thank you for popping by...

Cricut Cardz Challenge
On Wednesday evenings my husband goes to Church to do an activity with the youth of our church,so once the kids have gone to bed I have some time to myself. Which means I end up doing two posts! Sorry about that! I have made a card for the Cricut Cardz Challenge to make a St Patrick's day card without shamrocks.
I used Create a Critter Cartridge. This is my favourite cartridge...I love it! Have you noticed?!! I cut 'Lucky' at fit to length 5" and the hat is cut at 3". The punch is Fiskers.
Last weekend I won an Ebay bid for someone who was clearing out their craft stuff and there was loads of papers in it, and these papers were there, but I don't know who they are by.
