As Promised

Yesterday we spent a warm, sunny afternoon crafting at Crafty Corner, South Shields - a bit of a find for those with Crafty Inclinations!!! Check out their site at info@craftycorneruk.com While we were crafting - this is what the kids did to their fab DAD. I'm not sure who had more fun!!!

The Dog Does Craft TV

Yes this is the dog attempting to join in a crafty time that we were having recently. It's difficult to know where to start really with this hound as she is a law unto herself. Kuilty, rhymes with guilty, has to be involved with everything. One of her more famous claims to fame is that she once opened a packet of 4000 3d foam pads and wore them like Joseph's technicolour dream coat. After she tired of wearing them she them walked them round the house, sticking them to the wood floor. Guess who spent an afternoon clearing up!!

Cuttlebug Playtime

Spent today playing with some cuttlebug embossing folders ..... I was supposed to be making a six tier wedding cake (from paper - cuttlebug style) for my godson's wedding in August but got slightly distracted while waiting for some glues to dry. I will post a piccy of the cake but it will have to wait until after the wedding as it is a surprise for the Bride & Groom!!!!
Anyway back to the cards....

These are a selection of cards using Peacock Summer Party Papers, Peacock Fan and Fantasy Floral Rubber Stamps available from Graphicus. They are just gorgeous to use.

A Dog on a Trampoline

Yes this is the 'dog on the trampoline' moment that we shared in this morning after breakfast. Really she's watching the birds - but uses the trampoline as an aide to savaging our garden. It can be quite a distraction to paper crafting!!!!
