Thank you teacher....part 1.

These notebooks are for my gorgeous nephew to give to his teachers at school next week. 

The image is Bugaboo, and it's kinda cute.

Well, aren't you just super?

Today a birthday card to show you.

Well, who doesn't love a grungy background? Probably quite a few people actually, but I do! Using some new to me stamps- a Sam Poole, Creative Expressions set. 

And, yes, you do spy my beloved Drippy Goo punch there.....I can't help it, it's my favourite.

I'm entering this into the following challenges:

Papertake weekly- Occasion-ally

Simon says stamp challenge- Make the cut

Angels or demons? Definitely demon......

The Try it on Tuesday challenge is Angels or Demons. 

So obviously I went for a demon, but he's still kinda sweet.....

I sometimes spend a bit of time making backgrounds and this one was a favourite, it's taken me a looooong time to use it....Stoopid, I know. I can always make another one, but you know, sometimes the ink just pools and splatters just so, and it drips just right, and then I want to keep it......

Drippy goo- best punch EVER! Love these word stamps too, had them for a bargain price and the large typewriter print is class.

Spotty thank you.

I'm still making thank you teacher cards- this one is so bright! It's hand stamped and watercoloured.

If you'd like to order one, or more!, I can make them in any colourway, hair and uniform. I'm selling them at £2.50 each with packaging and postage at £1 if required. Each card is a square white 6x6 inch, blank inside with a matching white envelope.

I can't help myself, have to add a bit of sparkle- the blue backing on this is glitter paper, with matching flowers and a touch of glitter on the edge of the girl's dress and bow.

Thank you teech! Cards for sale.

I'm getting ahead of the game and starting on the thank you teacher cards for the end of term. It's a big move for my Miss Little Legs this year, and I wanted to get things sorted before it gets emotional!!!

The image is Bugaboo, watercoloured as ever. I'm making these to order, so if you would like some for your little one to send to their teacher, just get in touch. I can customise the colours to reflect different school uniforms/hair/skin.

The boy version looks like this.....

Again, I can make these to order- £2.50 a card if you live local and can have it hand delivered/pick it up. If not, £3.50 posted to anywhere in the UK. I'll discount for multiple purchases.

I'm entering the girl one into the Totally Gorjuss- anything goes with flowers challenge.

Hmmmmmmmm, cute eh?

I always say I don't "do" cute. Although a startling number of my posts contain images of cute cards. However, I do stand by my statement- cute is not where my heart lies. It is, however, what sells and what my daughter likes to send to other little girls and assorted card recipients..... so cute is probably here to stay. Just know that if someone was sending this card to me, I'd quite like it in purple and lime green, with a good dose of black ink and some spider webs. 'K?

Oh OK, it has turned out quite sweet I guess!

The flower was made from scrap papers and a fabby punch that layers up into a smashing flower.

Lots of bling on this one, so I'm entering it into the Fussy and Fancy Friday Bling it on challenge.

I'm also entering it into the Craft Room challenge to Use your scraps (flower) 

and the Daring Card makers- Make it yourself challenge (again, the flower!)

If you'd like a thank you teacher card, get in touch, cos I'm selling them!

A Little Bit Crafty DT- new challenge......Something Sweet!

Yay, time to show you my latest DT creation for the A Little Bit Crafty challenge blog. 

The theme is Something Sweet.......but I wasn't really feeling so very sweet yesterday....... so my card is kinda sweet, but kinda not....

As seems to be usual for me nowadays, the image is coloured with watercolour pencils.

The boy image is from Bugaboo- one of our sponsors this month.
