You Want Candy?!

 This post will stay on top until 24th September

I have put together some candy to say Thank You to my 101 followers.  Special big thanks to those of you who visit regularly and have been with me from the begining.  I love all your comments and the fact that you take time to visit.  I try to visit as many of you as possible but don't always get chance to leave you all comments :(  I have also made some great friends through the world of blogging.
So what have I got for you




  • Papermania Red Capsule Ribbon
  • Dark Blue Stickles
  • Fizzy Moon - Christmas Ribbon
  • Dovecraft - Polka Dot Ribbon
    Roll of White Satin Ribbon - (Great to colour with Promarkers)
  • More ribbon - Mixed colours of satin ribbon
  • Small cream satin bows with pearls
  • Coredinations Black Magic 6x6" Pad
  • Mixed Charms
  • Small Embossing Folder - Let it Snow
  • Studio G - Just for you cling stamp
  • Craftwork Cards Sentiments and embossed frames
  • O Scrap Jelly Embellies
Finally in my book Candy has to have some real sugar so I have thrown in a box of Maltesers - the lighter way to help you craft.  Even Mike has given my candy the thumbs up!!!
I will draw the winner 24th September and announce the winner 26th September 2011. Thats gives you all plenty of time to be in with a chance as I know a lot of you will have holidays during this period.  Keep watching as I may add more goodies before the end.
Thanks to you all.

Super Quick cards with Tatty Teddy

I am still here everybody I just haven't had the time for blogging but hope I will join you all again soon.  I needed something last weekend that I could do realtively quickly to take a break form work.  So I made 3 quick cards using a Tatty Teddy kit.  I felt like I was cheating not having a hand coloured image on the card.



I hope to get in my craft room tomorrow so that I can unwind a little after another very hard week at work.

Hope you are all having a lovely weekend and that you have seen some sunshine.
Welcome to my lovely new followers, glad you decided to join me.
Don't forget I still have Candy until next Saturday.
Have a lovely evening.

So this weeks challenge was set by Miria and is called Santa Claus is coming to town.
Please make sure that Santa Claus is the main image on your card.
We are sponsored by Delicious Doodles
And our other sponsor is Crimson Cloud



For my card I used an Digital Image from Sassy Cheryls

Sentiment - Lili of the Valley

Hope you are all having a good weekend so far.
Thanks for popping over and a big Hello to my new followers.
