Bling Goes My Heart

This is my entry for this weeks Dareu2digistamp challenge which has the theme of 'BLING'. I have used some glitter paper for the base/background this gorgeous digital image which I have seen used several times and fell in love with her so I got it and isn't she lovely I have added some gems, satin ribbon with more gems and a flower that I cut out and double layered finally added a computer generated sentiment, I think that is quite a nice lot of bling. Hugs to you all Lorraine x

Chocolate Inspiration and Lots Of It

This is my entry for three challenges the first is Scent My Cards themed 'Chocolate Inspiration', Cute Card Thursday themed 'Marshmallow and Chocolate' and last but not least Stamp Something Challenge which is themed 'Shapes'. I think this card will get your taste buds watering somewhat as if they aren't already with all the Easter Eggs about. I didn't get any Easter Eggs but I don't mind, making this card was enough chocolate treat for me lol. The background paper is a box of chocolates from My Craft Studio as is the flower which started of blue but I did a colour change to co-ordinate with the theme and double layered it. I added a muffin coloured with promarkers and an image from The Greeting Farm coloured with brown, vanilla and pink promarkers. I hope you like this but please let me know good or bad. Hugs to you all and have a happy Easter.

Nesties?

I am so sorry but I didn't give the information on the papers etc, that I used for the last 3 challenges I posted. The backing paper used for Tilda was from My Craft Studio, the backing papers for the other two challenges are from Funky Fairies and Raspberry Road designs and last but not least the mats used for the two images are from Funky Fairies and they are downloads and come in several different colours and of course can be resized.

I have coloured her with Derwent Inktense pencils which is my first time of using these and they are rather nice. I have used some horse backing paper some more of my wide pink ribbon and added some flora doodles oh and some leather across the 2 corners. Hope you like it. Hugs to you all.

Jojo is Ok

Thank you once again for your concern shown over Jojo and me and I would like to tell you that Jojo is back to normal and is enjoying being fussed. The culprit was a BEE who had stung him on his rump and apparently animals turn over like Jojo did to try and dislodge the sting. We are both happy bunnies again lol. Hugs to you all.

Meet Jojo

This is my Jojo and I love him to bits he gives me a kiss every morning and is always so happy to see me. He is nearly eight years of age and is so friendly and cute he loves being fussed and would just lie there all day being stroked. The pictures look as if it is two different rabbits but he changes colour when he loses his winter coat and he is so soft. Just thought you would like to see him because you are all so kind. Hugs Lorraine x

Hi dear friends

I know you all thought I would be resting and I would have been but I was out the back and my rabbit Jojo had what I thought was a convulsion and it was so upsetting to see him like that. I am crying while writing this. Jojo has never been like that before, ever, and it knocked me for six I thought I had lost him and my heart was breaking. My mum came over because I was so upset but after a while he seemed to be ok but then a few hours later it happened again and I am shaking because I don't want to lose him....I love him to much. I have been stroking him and now he seems to be back to his normal self but I will be on tender hooks until tomorrow. I thought about it later and I have had a lot of big bees in the garden not looking for pollen but for somewhere to live. They made a home in one of my little pots a couple of years ago and it made me wonder if Jojo had been stung by one. I will probably take him to the vets tomorrow to have a check over. I have to keep busy so you may see a few more cards posted tonight hehe. Hugs to you all.

Another New Challenge Blog

If you love a challenge (and I know you do) and you love (or maybe thinking of trying) Digi Stamps then you must try this new challenge blog called dareu2digistamp. This weeks theme is based on a sketch and the requirements are to use a Digi Stamp and/or a Digital download which could be backing papers. I have used a new digi Stamp from Sandra Dry Digi Designs which is a fairy and ladybug/bird. As I love my fairy's I fell in love with this one straight away and decided to use it for the sketch. I have coloured the image with my copics added some backing paper and lace added a gem and a sentiment the swirls you can see on the blue card background I did myself with a Sakura white pen. If you are thinking about trying Digi Stamps there are a few sites in my sidebar including Sandra Dry Digi Designs just click on the pictures and it will take you to the sites.

Stamptacular Challenge/New Beginnings

First I would like to thank you for your kind comments and concern you have shown me you are very lovely people and I am proud to call you my friends. Well I have been up most of the night and to take my mind off my back I made this card for the new Sunday challenge site Stamptacular and the theme is 'new beginnings'. I have used my Messy Rabbit baby which I thought suited this occasion well. I have used some of my gorgeous wide pink ribbon and have actually done some hand stitching down the side. Hope you like it love & hugs to you all. I am now off to take your advice and try to rest my back but will hopefully be back soon lol.
