Two today.....

Hello all, thought I'd have a break from the dreaded ironing.......oops sorry to mention something so horrible lol. I have clothes everywhere at the minute & it all needs to be sorted, but oh well.......

Here is a card I've made for my friends lil girl who will be two tomorrow. Lil confession here, I've already given her a shop bought card! I didn't know if I would have time to make one & saw them a couple of days ago, so rather than not give a card at all.........
My friend will probably think I've gone mad, but I'll pop this one round to her too......it does have 'two' on it so I can't keep it for next year!
Papers & letters are all from a digital kit 'Flea Market Chic' which can be found at Shabby Princess.
As with my last card I've printed the letters onto card, double layered onto card again & then cut them out with my craft knife, giving them a chunky feel. Ribbon from stash & brad & flowers were from the very lovely Vicki. Thank you Vicki.

Better get back to it........ironing that is, but later tonight I'm going to sit down with my feet up & have a good old blog hop!

See you in a couple of weeks,

Fancy a footballer?............

.........freebie!!!

A very happy Saturday to all, from a happy & grateful me!
It's been a while since my last freebie image & I thought now would be a good time, so as to celebrate the fact that I've had an amazing 20,000 hits on my blog!!!!.........yay!!!!!
Thank you so much to everyone who visits my lil blog & for all of the very kind comments which I am given, I can't say how much I appreciate each & every one.
My intention was to put blog candy up, however I'm off on my hols in a couple of days (woooo....hoooooo,...I'm a bit excited lol) so won't have time to sort anything....at the moment.

So, if you do fancy a footballer, feel free to share with us who it is.....lol, but otherwise you could save this lil fellow & use him to suit. It's the image I used on my last card, as a footballer.
However, I've left his ball clear so as it can be adapted to suit which ever 'ball sport', ie..football, basketball, rugby, american football. (with a lil tweak for the last two)

All I ask is that you respect my copyright!

Many thanks & I hope you enjoy,

Lil footballer......

Here we are again......Friday! These weeks are getting quicker & quicker, we're already half way through the hols!!!

My boys are off to their friends birthday party in a while & here is the card I've made for them to give.
The pp's & letters are all Shabby Princess download kit Painted Summer. I've used these on a previous card & find them great for boys. (although nothing stopping them being used for girls!...) The letters I have printed out onto thick card & then double layered them so as they are like chipboard letters.
The image was drawn a while back, at the same time as 'Cool dude', but this is the first time I've got round to using him.

I hope you all have a great weekend whatever you do!!!

A few more....

Here are the next few Harry & Martha images which have just been released on the Spiral Whisper site for pre-order.

As you may have gathered from my last few posts I've been a lil bit busy of late, hence the lack of actual cards I've uploaded....lol. Hopefully I can try & get a few made until my next break in a couple of weeks, when we go off on our hols........can't wait!!!!!!!!

On another note, yesterday was terrible, we had no internet access at all (problem with our server...) it was only one day but OMG how did we live before it?!..............I couldn't look at anything, the boys couldn't go on their fav sites. By the time hubby got home from work we had given up trying! But today......yay!!!!!!!.......

Anyway I hope all is well with everyone else & dare I say it?!...........but the sun seems to be out! woo hoo, please let it last lol.

Welcome to blogland........

Hello all, I hope you are well?!........

Nothing creative to share with you today......of my own that is. I just wanted to let you all know of a new blog Little Princess Cards. For anyone who frequents docrafts you're probably already aware of Sarita's fabulous cards, but for anyone who hasn't come across them then a visit to see her creations is well worth while. They are soooooo gorgeous!!!

Plain & Simple........

Happy & relaxing Sunday.......that's what I'm having! Hope your's is going good too?!.......

Having put a couple of the Xmas Kerry jo images on the other day I thought I'd make them up into cards. For some reason I wanted to make them as simple as possible.

Now, for anyone who knows me, this I don't normally do. I love seeing other peoples creations, when less is definitely more, but find trying to do this myself quite a task.

Anyway I've had a go & I'm quite pleased with how they've turned out. I think I'll be able to do more this way, which can only be a good thing with all the xmas cards I'll need to make!

The first two are the previously shown images from the other day. For the sentiments on each card I've just wrote whatever I felt, however I'm not sure if I'm keen on my writing or if I'd have preferred printed sentiments, I could always do it differently next time.

Here, we have another two ........

I thought I'd show you all a couple more as two was a bit mean...........sorry!!!.......lol.

Bye for now, Kerry xxx

Woo hoo....I'm on Inspirational!

Hello to all from a happy lil bunny me!!!

I had a very lovely email yesterday from Martine over at the Inspirational blog, asking if I would mind if they featured my blog & some of my cards?!............
Now, how long did I need to answer this......in my head a second, otherwise as long as it took me to reply!....lol
Of course my answer was...................YES!!!

On another note, thank you for all of your fab suggestions with regards to 'boy/male' themes, they are all most helpful & I have taken note. Thank you!!

I hope you are all having a great weekend whatever you have been & still have left to do.

Harry & Martha.........

For anyone who pops by my blog from time to time, these lil characters you will have already seen........ 'Harry & Martha'.
I had the pleasure of receiving them a few days ago & it really is lovely to see them as stamps. I originally drew them one day whilst I was a little bored & never intended much for them, until the very lovely Kitty at Spiral Whisper said she would be interested in making them up into stamps. For this I'm most grateful, thank you Kitty!

I'd also like to say a huge thank you for all the comments I've received regarding the post below....'thank you!'.
To answer a few questions, they are all girlies this time & as yet there are no boys. However, just out of interest what would you like to see if I were to do some boys?!.............if you think of anything in particular I'd love to know.

Hugs, Kerry xxx
