Here is another card I have made using my pencils.

What do you think of my first attempts?

Teddy CAS

Good morning crafty friends, hope you are all well.

I'm sorry I've not been around much the last few days. I've not felt up to much crafting or blogging. Our boxer Sammy died on Friday. He was 13 years old and very frail so we knew that he didn't have long left but its still a shock when it happens. We know that he is at peace now so this gives us some comfort..RIP SAmmy xxxxxx

I have a CAS card to share with you today..


I used these gorgeous slightly textured papers from Authentique Free Bird..
The image is from the stamp fairy coloured with my promarkers.

I'm entering this into the following challenges.

Nan....

Hello bloggers, hope you are all well..

Today's my Nan's birthday, she would of been 76 today.. 
Its been nearly 2 years since she passed away, can't believe it has been that long, we all miss her very very much and think about her every day..

Instead of making a card this year I wanted make something small that could be tied around the vases next to her memorial. We have a big family so there are always stacks of beautiful flowers for her (my nan really loved her flowers lol).. This is what I came up with:


In my craft stash I had an old wooden butterfly (I have no idea where I got it).
So I inked it with distress ink and sprayed with a metallic mist (sorry couldn't get it to show in pics).
Then I added flowers from WOC.. Pearl hearts, banner, peel off sentiment and ribbon from my stash.

Hope you like it, I'm sure my nan would of..
HAPPY BIRTHDAY NAN
LOVE AND MISS YOU LOADS..
