Good Luck Lynne the new shop is amazing!!!!

This beautiful card I made at one of my craft classes at the Craft Box in Elsecar!!!

Last week Lynne moved into new bigger premises at the Heritage Centre and I went to see it yesterday for such much needed supplies and Wow its amazing and it's "HUGH" she has some fabulous stock in even Debbie Bliss Wool and had a peep at stock to be put out and yes I need to go back!!!!

Good Luck Lynne with the bigger shop its just beautiful and can't wait to get back to classes!!!!

She also has an open day "Saturday the 6th August" well worth the visit she has Michelle doing Pro Marker Demos, Claire from Molly Blooms and Lindsay Mason with her fab stamps.

My card is obviously Molly Blooms coloured with Pro Markers.

Sorry don't know what the papers where but we also used plain coloured bazzil!

Cut out the top section with nesties.

Lynne had added Viva Pearls on her which I added at home plus lots more!!!

Another Molly Bloom stamp and some pink ribbon to finish off.


Off now to craft with my new goodies oh and I have a goblin Magnolia she is just lush!!!

Hope you have all had a great weekend even though the weather has spoilt going outside!!!

Sweet Pea Stampers and the Theme is Anything Goes!!!!

Well I must have cracked it as I'm here again with this weeks Challenge over at Sweet Pea Stampers!!! So sorry girls for being missing for the last few but hopefully I'm now on track!!!

This is my design for this week.

Just love how the image has turned out with my new colouring skills and just loving the Pro Markers.

As you can see I have used ribbon and lace on my card and they all go together so well.

My papers are from Prima and they are the "Moulin Rouge" collection.

Added flowers and feathers from my stash, some beautiful metal Tim Holt's corners on the background mount and a stamped my sentiment onto some ribbon but not very please with the result as when it dried you can only just read it!!! (will have to redo I think!!!!)

Yep it's me again!!!!!

I know I can't believe it either but here I am again!!

With some fabulous Molly Bloom images (These are Kerry's images I think she nearly has all the new range from the Craft Box) these where actually coloured when I went to my niece Kerry's last week but by the time we had masked and coloured them in we didn't have time to make the card so I did it yesterday.

These new images are coloured in with Pro Markers and have added some glamour dust to finish off the design.

The background papers are pink dotted swiss and Magnolia.

The sentiment is from LOTV and the flowers are from my very large stash.

Finished off with some punched butterfly's.

My little Angel and a Magnolia Card xxx

Well I'm finding it really hard at the moment to get into my crafting!!!
I'm still enjoying buying new goodies though, its just the actual crafting that's missing.

Last week I took Summer to my friends little boys birthday party and she had "Party Pets" there and a bouncy castle. Well Summer just adores animals so she just loved it this is her with the beautiful rabbits there was also guinea pigs, hens, rambo the pot bellied pig, four different types of owls, lizards, frogs and snails.


My magnolia card pictures are a bit blurred and didn't realise until I had put them onto the computer!!!!

I made this for a friend at work who left last week so can't take anymore photos!!
The image is coloured with pro markers.

Added some beautiful brown lace and orange seam binding.

The flowers are from my stash and I think the papers are Bo-Bunny.

Well after I realised the photos where blurred I had a look at the camera and found that the front lense was covered in sticky stuff from little fingers!!!!!

That's it for tonight but before I go would like to thank everyone for all the lovely comments on my last post and of course to welcome all my new followers!!!


Have a great weekend Love as always Chanelle xxx
