Birthday Aged 9 (All Dressed Up image)

Hi crafty friends,

I hope you're all having a great weekend, sorry to hear a lot of our USA friends are having a freezing time, lets hope you can get some crafting done while you're stuck indoors.

I thought this gorgeous All Dressed Up image went beautifully with this Bo Bunny paper so coloured her up to match and fussy cut her out so she was part of the scene/papers.

Please email if you would like rough estimates of shipping, if we can send it as a large letter we will or perhaps get your friends to all buy too and share the postage!

Summer Birthday card (Little Miss Muffet image)

Good morning Crafty Friends,

I love this image from Little Miss Muffet so decided I needed to print her out large. The "Summer" and stripes at the bottom is actually on acetate. I coloured her up to go with completely different papers but it was too much colour when I went to create with them so I totally changed it up keeping a simple white background so she and the other embellishments stand out. The sentiment was printed out on my printer and then I hand cut it.

Hi crafty friends,

My second and last card to post tonight as it's midnight here and bedtime really.

I hope you've been able to get as much crafty time as I have these past couple of weeks.

This is a sweet new image I have just chosen from Bugaboo stamps, straightaway I thought about how he would look on my cloud paper, he's just so cute! I have another Bugaboo image similar but with an elephant instead of monkey, I can't wait to use him in coming weeks too.
