Just a quick update on the move......only 11 more sleeps :)  So excited.......just can't wait.

I will be gone from blogland for a while as BT can't come and set up the phone and broadband until 10th December!  I'm sure we willl have so much to sort out though that we actually might wean ourselves off the telly and internet.....now that would be good in some ways I think :)

Enjoy your weekend everyone.
Catch you all soon.

So most of you will know that we are on the move......not that far away though, probably as the crow flies about a mile from where we live now...lol

I have put together the following for you.

• Promarker - Spring Pack
• StampFairy Clear Stamps
• Ribbon
• Twine
• Papermania paper pad
• Hobby House Pearls
• Assorted Wooden Shapes
• Assorted Metal charms

All you need to do is be a regular follower, no just candy followers please.
Add your name to the linky thing......thats it!!   Hope you like it.

You have until October 31st to enter and I will announce the winner at the beginning of November.

See you all soon,
Hugs Sally xx

Ready Teddy Go Challenge - How Many Fingers

I sound like a broken record but where does the time keep going to?   The 1st of September and as far as I am concerned work wise probably the worst two weeks of the year are about to start.  School catering at the beginning of the term is not pleasant but as the time is flying by I am hoping the next two weeks past me by very quickly!!! lol.

Well thats enough of my moaning.  I am here to tell you about the new challenge at Ready Teddy Go this month which is called
How Many Fingers - now this had the DT baffled for a while until our lovely Julie Ann explained to us what she had in mind when choosing the theme.  Here is what she said

have you ever heard a kiddie say that they are like 3 fingers . . . meaning that they are 3 years old . . .

We just want cards for a youngster or oldster for that matter with a number on the card . . . simples : )

Remember you just have to have a Teddy Bear as the main image and you can enter up to four times.
This month we are sponsored by Lili of the Valley with a £10 voucher :)

So for my card I have used the incredibly cute Fizzy Moon

He is coloured with Polychromo and Prisma pencils and Promarkers.
I have added Liquid Pearls and stickles to the star and Liquid Pearls along the bottom of the card.
The 1 today is from Ladybug Crafts Ink
Paper - Papermania

I hope you can join us for the challenge and don't forget to pop over to the challenge blog to see what the DT have come up with.

Have a good weekend.
Thanks for popping over.

Paper Piecing at Ladybug Crafts Ink

I am all confused with having yesterday off as a Bank Holiday, I have been convinced today was Monday and then realsied that I was late posting my card for Ladybug Crafts Ink!!!

Well without further ado here we go with another challenge and this one was chosen by the lovely Pam and we want to see Paper Piecing
We are back to the usual fortnightly challenges now that the Summer is over....I know....what summer!!!!

So mine was a very quick and simple card using Cupcake Cutie Cherry On Top this was one of the very first image that I purchased from LCI and I think is still one of my favourites.

I have paper pieced the cupcake wrapper and the topping along with her top.
She is coloured with pencils and I have added Glossy Accents to the cherry and Liquid Pearls to the frosting.
The sentiment is also from LCI and the flowers are die cut.

Short and sweet from me today.
Have a lovely evening.
