Buzz, Buzz, Buzz. Busy Bee, Busy Bee. Have you seen this lovely little Gorjuss Bumble Bee from Sugar Nellies? So sweet! I've used Gayle's lovely sketch from The Sugar Bowl Challenge this week, I've just made the deadline! Well, I've been such a Busy Bee :) The wonderful summery papers are DCWV from Quixotic Paperie – aren't they glorious? Her little wings…

I am so lucky to be part of the Sugar Nellie's new Duda Daze stamps release blog hop. Karen asked for some volunteers for the new range designed by Diane Duda and I was awfully lucky to put my hand up in time. My new stamp arrived a while ago and I've had to sit on my hands until now before I…
You could not get a Tea Time more sugary sweet than this :) This month the Project of the Month over at the Sugar Sugar challenge blog is door hangers and here is a 'Come On In, It Is Time For Cakes' door hanger that I shall be putting up on my door. LOL. And all you guys that have been waiting…

So Spring Break has started for many children in the UK and next weekend it is Easter, which means that we have a four-day weekend. To celebrate Easter/Spring Sugar Sugar has a Easter/Spring challenge on this month which must be anything except a card. I've made a little chocolate egg holder. OK, so this would have looked a bit fuller but, well,…
A challenge card today taking inspiration from the Colour Create Challenge blog, which is celebrating a fab 10k hits - well done, guys. They have some blog candy to celebrate so hop over ASAP :) These are colours I rarely use but really like so I had to have a go! I dug about in my stash to find a colour match…
Have you ever done one of those cards that just changes several times over from first concept to final product? Well this was one of them! It has changed so much that I'm not sure what to call it now. LOL. Indecisive is my middle name :) Right, well, anyway this card uses the fab cracking UTEE technique which is this month's…
Another card from last year for you today. I haven't blogged it yet but you might have seen it in Papercrafts Essentials if you read the magazine. The image is a cute Hamish from Sugar Nellie and he has been coloured with Prismacolor pencils then embossed to give that 'just snowing texture' :) I cut the border with a circle template and…

I admit that I didn't do the doodling myself but it was already on the paper, and then there is the Rhonda Farrer flower doodle stamp I've used as the background for the image. The doodle flowers are stamped using Marvy Le Plume watercolour…
