Baubles and Bells

So as my ankle proceed to get more painful not less, I went to A&E.

After some blood tests and x-ray and a lot of socially distanced sitting around, the doctor ruled out everything else, so agrees with me that it's probably the tendons, but other than to continue with painkillers the only 'cure' is physio... which, is problematic at the moment for obvious reasons.

Oh well, we'll see.

It is making sitting in my craft room awkward because I'm supposed to keep my foot elevated as much as possible - but I did manage to get my craft on today. If with a small amount of pain. Ah well, art is pain, right?


I went with one of my non-traditional paper packs, from hobbycraft. Teal shades are some of my favourites!

I coloured the stamps from bugaboo with my promarkers - there is another from the set, a snowflake, which is inside the card, but I forgot to take a picture of that, oops!

The frames were cut on my cameo and of course, I couldn't resist the gems... although I did spend an unnaturally long time looking through all my colours, just to decide on clear! lol!

Have A Great Day

How cute is this wee pupper from digi doodle shop. I've had him cut out waiting for me to decide what to do with him for aaaaages! I finally coloured him with my promarkers and decided on this side stepper card. The various elements were cut on my cameo. The paper is from the Nit Wit Paws-ativity collection. I stamped and cut the sentiment by hand and added it to the tree with a bit of twine, to make it look kinda like a swing (and it does swing, side to side at least, lol).

Autumn...

The leaves and quote came from a set sweet and sassy. I used my cameo to fussy cut the leaves and cut the sentiment on the oval. The stars are wooden embellishments from my stash. And the paper is make and create. I added a few pearls. It's layered on a kraft card base.

we're dreaming of a pink christmas

As anyone who has been on my blog before might know, I don't generally like pink very much, but that was the challenge and other people I know do so... still I'm rather pleased with this one, I actually think it's super cute, despite the pink, lol! This adorable image is from Di's Digi Downloads, coloured as ever with my promarkers and a little glitter glue on the santa hats. The sentiment was just typed. The papers are from make & creates magical christmas design pad. I went with grey card to layer on a white card base. I added a little lace and some gems to embellish.
