Xmas Kerry Jo's........

Hi all, I hope you are keeping well & as warm as can be!

As I said, I'd let you know when I found anything out about the Xmas Kerry Jo's. I had a lovely mail from Tracey yesterday saying she had seen them on the Debbi Moore Designs site. Many thanks Tracey.
At the moment they are listed, but unfortunately with no picture & stating they are out of stock. However I'm led to believe they will be in stock within the next few days, so hopefully they will pop a piccie of them on then!

Many thanks to everyone who has asked about them & for all of your very kind comments.
Hugs, Kerry xxx

Festive freebie....

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

OK, so the curse of my best laid plans, lol. The weekend didn't quite go as planned due to Tom my youngest catching the bug that Sam had had earlier in the week. After lots of cuddles from Mommy & Daddy he was well on the way to being himself again. Now, at the start of half term hes back to his normal cheeky self, only trouble is I've started feeling a bit yuck! Oh well.........at least they know how to share!

Having read through the very lovely comments I'd been left on my last card (huge thanks for them all!) I started thinking about Emma's....."hint hint" with regards to the doodled christmas tree I'd used.

As I haven't popped a freebie on for a bit..........can anyone make use?
As before if you could just respect my copyright, thank you & enjoy!

Below are a couple of quick & simple cards I made with the tree on its own, as last time I'd used it as a background image.




Both cards have pp's given to me by Jools. (don't know what make they are) Core-dinations cs & sentiment is Doodlebug rub-ons.
Also, I'd just like to say huge thanks for the awards which have very kindly been passed onto me lately. I'll pop them on over the next few days.
Bye for now,

Greetings all, from bad blogger me............
Apologies to my blogging buddies for not having visited of late but for some reason my best intentions seem to keep going out of the window! My eldest decided to catch himself another bug & was sent home from school again at the start of the week........probably due to the fact that he had to run out of the class so as to be sick, yuck!
Luckily he's now much better, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the rest of us don't get it........

On another subject, as a family we seem to have lost our quiet weekends & lie-ins. Hubby has taken on an Under 9's football team, (Sam our eldest being in the team) with training on Saturday mornings & matches on Sunday mornings. Never thought I'd say this, but I'm really enjoying going to watch them!!!

But, with the kiddiwinks breaking up from school tomorrow I intend to catch up & get some well deserved blog hopping in.........well thats the plan lol.
Anyway, with all of this going on I haven't had much chance to craft other than the card below, & to get me back into things I'm hoping that a visit to the NEC next month will give me a needed kick up the you know what!

PP's Papermania & Core-dinations, image Martha Carol Singer, doodled tree & button, ribbons & eyelets from stash. As yet I'm not sure who I'll send this to, so will add a sentiment later.
Thanks for stopping by & I look forward to seeing what you've all been up to!

Secret Sister Reveal!.........

My Secret Sister reveal................
Last month a group of us crafty girlies were involved in a Secret Sister swap, which was very kindly organised by Michelle. A huge thank you has to go to Michelle for taking the time to do this, which I must say was most enjoyable. I'm not sure which I enjoyed most though, the sending part or the lovely receiving part.

Above is the card which I made & sent to my SS, the very lovely Sue.
PP's were Laura Ashley & image was one of Martha with flowers. Ribbon, braid & button were all from my stash & the sentiment was wrote using my Whispers Embossing Pen, then embossed over.
Below were the goodies I sent to Sue. I really loved these PP's & their colours, so much so I may have to treat myself to them too! lol.
Unlike other peeps I don't have many stamps so when it came to what images to send I included a few of the new Kerryjo xmas images. With a few (coloured) I had on my computer, as the colours were the same as in the pp's. With this in mind I don't think it was too difficult to guess who the goodies were from............lol!

Hopefully Sue can enjoy & make use of the goodies.

Harry Skiing......

Oooo roll on the weekend...lol. Today's plans seemed to go out of the window as my eldest was sent home from school poorly. So, having settled him down when we got back home I needed to find something to do that was quiet. Mmmm.........crafting!!!
Not that I need an excuse (when I'm in the mood) but an ideal opportunity to have a play, so play I did & this is what I came up with.

Image is Harry Skiing which I've coloured with watercolour pencils & then clear embossed over. Papers were all very kindly given to me by Jools, (but I can't remember where she said they were from) sentiment is Doodlebug rub-ons & snow, well............
Again I seemed to be in a punching & sticking mood lol, with quite a few lil pieces of white card!


Thanks for popping by,

They were sent to me by the very lovely & most kind Vicki as a thank you for her birthday card & images I sent her last week. To say I was thrilled with them would be an understatement lol, the colours are so yummy & lo's are brill. I think I can definitely say Vicki has got the hang of her new BIA!!!



Only thing is, I don't want to spoil the book! lol.
Thank you Vicki!!!!!!!!!!!!!..............xxxxxxx

Happy Anniversary....

Here is a card I finished in the week, but couldn't show until today. It's for Jools & her hubby Neil ( my Bro-in-law & Sis-in-law) who celebrated their 10th Anniversary last weekend.
The idea was that I was going to do a lil doodle of them on their Wedding Day & make a simple card, similar to the ones I made with the Kerryjo Xmas images. Then, I intended to give the card to them before they went away for their weekend. However, I wasn't keen on how it was looking & decided to go distressed...lol. This then took longer than anticipated & due to the fact I was a bit busy with other things I didn't get it finished in time.
But, I gave it to them today so.......here it is!

Pp's are Basic Grey, green cs is some of the very yummy Coredinations which I received from my SS along with ribbon, eyelets & pearls from my stash.
The image I drew from one of their Wedding piccies, but wanted to keep it quite sketchy so as it's just a representation of them both. (good way of covering the fact that it might not be quite right...lol) Saying that though I was pleased when one of my Nephews (Jools son) who stayed with us for the weekend asked "why are you drawing my Mom & Dad?..."



I hope you are all enjoying your weekend whatever you are doing!

Bye for now, Kerry xxx

Flowers & more flowers.....

Hi all, the weekend! I hope you've all got something great planned or a nice relaxing time to look forward to.

Here we have a card I made for the very lovely Vicki who's birthday was last weekend, all be it a little late getting to her. Sorry Vicki....lol. She has very kindly taken this very artistic piccie for me as I totally forgot, to busy getting it sent off!!
The pp is Laura Ashley & the lil flowers coloured cs. I punched them out with a fab lil X-Cut punch I was sent along with some other goodies, as a thank you for being blog of the week on Clare Curd's blog. (Docrafts Designer) Huge thanks Clare!!!!
This, was also the first time I had tried Silicone glue & just loved using it....
The image was one received from my Secret Sister, thank you SS & the sentiment my scrawl...lol

Because I enjoyed using the flowers on Vicki's card I thought I'd use them again for my friend's card who's birthday is this weekend. Pp's are Basic Grey & the image is again from my SS, with my scrawl for the sentiment.

Many thanks to the lovely ladies who have passed tags onto me. As & when I can think of any interesting facts I'll pop it on....but I'm struggling at the moment lol!!!
See you soon,
Kerry xxx
