Blue Summer plus Blog Award

Hi all this card I managed to make for the following challenges:

Stamp Something - Designer Papers

Cute Card Thursday - Birthstone ( Blue Topaz)

The Sugar Bowl - Sketch

Delightful Challenge - Anything Goes

The Crazy Challenge - Monochromatic

Paper Sundaes - Girly Card

I have used a Sugar Nellie stamped image that I received from one of my blogging buddies, Crafty Chris, I colored the image with Copics and mounted onto blue card.  The papers are Bearlymine and are from the Simply Dots and Spring Flower range.  I added a stamped sentiment, ribbon, flowers, blue gems and card candy.

I have received this wonderful, delicious Blog Award from blogging buddy Annmaree and I would like to say Thank You Annmaree for passing this award onto me.

I have to pass this one onto eight other blogging buddies so here goes:

Cheryl

Nic (Coops)

Crafty Chris

Deb (Deb's Treasures)

I would have liked to pass it onto all my loyal friends but the rules are for eight.  I am also supposed to tell you eight things about myself but I think that I have already told you most things so I will pass on that bit, lol.

Hus to all see you soon.

Love Blog Award

I have received this award from fellow blogging buddy Sally at Sallybitz

Thank you Sally for passing this award onto me.

Here are the conditions for the award

You have been TAGGED & want to participate?

Create a post where you post the 'LOVE BLOG' image.
You should also blog the person link that gave you the award and inform her/him that you accept the award.

You can then choose 3 - 5 favourite blogs which you also link in your post, then each blogger will inform you that they have been tagged.

Dear bloggers:
The aim of this action is that we bring unknown, good blogs to light, so I would ask you not to blog fellow bloggers that already have 3,000 followers.

Gosh this is the part that I find difficult and that is choosing who to pass this onto as I love you all but as I have to follow the rules I have chosen the following

Shirley aka Nannieflash

Vicky at Sticky With Icky

Cheryl at Cheryl's creative cards and ATC's

Enjoy 

Blog Award

I am so honoured to have received this award from the lovely Karen isn't it beautiful I don't think I have seen this one before.

The rules are that I link to the person who gave me the award which is Karen and to nominate 12 other blogs to award it to.  This is always the hard bit as there are so many wonderful blogs that I have the pleasure of visiting and following but here we go.

Shirley, Doreen, Jenn, Annie, Lynda, Pinky, Nicola, Cheryl, Becky, Dora, Crafty Chris, Gina

Two Lovely Blog Awards

Hi all I received two more most gorgeous blog awards the first from Nannieflash and the second from Spyder. I am always emotional when I know that someone has thought of me when passing these awards on and it doesn't matter whether I have received them for the first time or several the thought is still there which I love. As with most awards there are rules which I will recap on and then pass these two beauties on. Please accept my thanks Spyder and Nannieflash.

Big Hugs to all take care Lorraine x

A proud member of the Lime Light click over to see what we are doing.

I am so Lucky

Wow I feel so proud and honoured to have received these awards today from two very lovely people. The 'Lemonade Award' was given to me by Linda the second from Shirely they are two wonderful crafters and their blogs are gorgeous so please pay a visit and check them out.

Ok now for the rules to follow the first award 'The Lemonade Award' is given to bloggers who show great attitude and gratitude now I know that we are supposed to nominate but to me this covers all the bloggers that I follow and it is so difficult for me to choose but choose I must so I would like to pass this award onto the following bloggers:

Chrissie, Chris (glowbug), Joanne, Shirley, Rowena, Sandie, Sassy

at this rate I will list you all which is what I would love to do lol.  When you receive the award please leave a comment and show off the award on your blog then nominate other bloggers you feel have attitude and gratitude.

Now the 'Inspirational Award' you can nominate as many as you like to receive it, put the award on your blog, leave a comment and last but not least and this is the twist is to tell of a fact about yourself that no-one else knows and put it on your blog........ummmmmm let me think..............apart from spending too much on craft stuff (but then can we crafters ever spend too much on lovely craft items lol)........ok well this isn't very interesting but I do have a big weakness for........Pontefract Cakes and once started I don't like to stop eating them lol.

Ok I would like to nominate the following bloggers for this award:

Chrissie, Sandie, Sassy, Linda, Rowena, Kym, Suzanne, Joanne, Irene. 

I think that's about it for now please enjoy your day and see you all later lots of Hugs 

I Can't Believe it.....

I must be one of the luckiest people about today and I am so happy I could burst and its all down to my fabulous blogging buddies.  What am I rabbiting on about I hear you ask....well I have been given this gorgeous award by Susie for starters, for the main course I have won Lora's candy and for dessert blogging buddy Kym came to my rescue with the computer problems and I am now sorted.  I now know the meaning of living on Cloud Nine and tell you what its an awesome feeling but then you all make this possible for me and I will never ever be able to say enough other than 'THANK YOU'. It is only a small word but it means an awful lot.  Ooooo I am overcome with emotion........what a fab day this has turned out to be and I love you all.  

Ok now to pass the award onto some of you fab blogging buddies and I find that this is always the hardest decision I have to make.  In fact because I am feeling and living on cloud nine I cannot choose because your blogs are all so awesome and I find so much joy and inspiration from you all and that there are probably some who have already got this award that I will say to any of my listed fab followers please accept this award and show it with pride as I will do.

I am off to make some cards now but will be back later.  Hugs Lorraine x

Proud to Receive this Award

This award was given to me by lovely fellow crafter Craftypagan I am always so proud to be thought of when these awards come around and this one I am extra pleased to get because of those little images and the fact that I can bring a smile to others. The rules are to pass this onto five other blogs that I think worthy which is always the difficult part because there are so many fun and inspirational blogs that I visit mostly on a daily basis. The blogs I have chosen are as follows:

Lora, Anita, Brandi, Suzanne and Kyllimarjaana.

Hugs to all my followers and fellow crafters you bring me so much delight.
