What's Up, Pussy Cat!!!

Decided this was a very appropriate card for today, as my darling Sookie has gone to the vet for that special little op (otherwise known as speying)plus a microchip in case my baby gets lost. Anyway this card has been created for the following: Wags N Whiskers Challenge - Scallops, Spoonful of Sugar - sketch, ABC Challenges - sparkles, Cute Card Thursday - Touchy Feely. Image is Wags N Whiskers "Furry Friends" coloured with my copics, paper is BG Cupcake.

Overly Orange!!!

This card was a struggle - I was bored a few months back, so sat and coloured images...but when I went to add them to the card, nothing really flowed, so putting everything together was a struggle. I am not happy with this but here is tis - Friday Sketchers sketch Challenge, Crazy for Challenges (use 1 ribbon, 2 buttons/brads, 3 different punches), paper is BG Marrakech, image is Anya and thats all I have to say about this creation.

Whitianga Cruising!!!

Here we are at day 5, Narny and I managed to ditch the littlies and DH for an afternoon of book reading and silence.
Day 1 - We travelled via Hamilton where we stopped at the best little shop with everything you could ever want and scored some buttons and fabric for my cards...could've stayed there all day, but Narny dragged me out the door. We unpacked and headed around the coast where we navigated a gravel track (DH was passed by a vintage car on this track - going in the same direction - and I may never let him live it down)to a hidden paradise (discovered only by rich people, one of whom parked a helicopter on his front lawn).
Day 2 - I put in my new upgraded contact lenses and we took the ferry across to Cooks Beach (a 45 minute walk after departing the ferry - EACH WAY) - everything up here is so beautiful and larger than life, so I couldn't believe my eyes when I spotted the biggest mushroom I have ever seen growing on the bank I said to DH "wow, look at that"...then realised it was actually a tree stump (hmm newer even more upgraded contacts required maybe).
Day 3 - We drove around to Hahei, and walked 45 minutes down a cliff to Cathedral Cove (again stunning) I was bemoaning my existence and the fact that all parts of me ached, and that in all probability my heart may give out, when I was passed by a girl on crutches...seriously who undertakes that kind of hike on crutches unless they want to put to shame us mere mortals.
Day 4 - I announced that I had no idea why we came here, there is no Macdonalds, everywhere you go its a 45 minute walk and everyone is thin "I must be the largest person in Whitianga" I declared. Never fear the Wahs had my back "no Mum, you're not, yesterday on the ferry there was a lady who was bigger than you", great so I am officially the second largest person in Whitianga!!!

I Had A Oopsy!!!

Note - Viv, don't read this!
Last night we had a stray cat trying to get in the cat door - "ha, you ugly looking animal" I thought to myself, "I'll fix you", so I dragged a large plastic container close to the cat door so it couldn't come in, but my cats could go out if needed (just not come back in) then I went to bed...and had a lovely sleep. Got up for work this morning (ugh) and...heres the oopsy...I forgot last night that before noticing said ugly cat I had put Paylee and Brandy out to toilet before bed (the poodles) they had spent the whole night outside and never complained...or maybe they did - with my earplugs in, I don't hear a thing - oopsy!!!

I'm A Fairy Princess!!!

Me again, this time following a sketch from I Heart Copics, I have used a Karens Doodles image coloured with my copics, DP is Papermania Amethyst Infusion, flower is Prima and ribbon from my stash.
Had a giggle (to myself) at my title - on a hens night in January we gave the bride to be a crown and she had to approach random strangers and announce that she was a fairy princess, odd looks from some (and hysterical laughter complete with a snort from me).

Methinks...Bright!!!

Still thinking about Easter, so created this card for the Sassy Cheryl's Challenge - Easter using Easter Bunny Snowman (I think thats right), and used the sketch from I C Sketches. DP is BG Indian Summer, image coloured with my copics, all eggs created by me. I had great plans in mind when I started this card...yup, plans change, it got thumbs up from the littlies though.

Easter Surprise!!!

Over at Karen's Doodles Challenge Blog (Scandinavia) the challenge this week is easter, so I created this very flowery card which also meant I could join the Crafty Calendar Challenge - flowers), image is Easter Bunny Hop coloured with copics, DP is Basic Grey Colour Me Silly (with spots which meant I could also enter the Creative Card Crew Challenge) and flowers were primas I coloured with my copics. My Bunny mean I could also enter the Pile it On Challenge - furry animals. Phew, I'm exhausted just thinking about it all!!!
