It's mice to give a tiny Hello.......

Stamps- TGF Let's Mingle.
Morning all!!

I'm in for you today with my Dies To Die For DT make and today it's with the super cute new TGF Let's Mingle. I wasn't feeling the christmas feeling this morning so I went for a good old Hello kinda card using the sweet little It's mice to give a tiny hello sentiment from the set.

I also wanted to give the Mama Elephant Polaroid Fun die set a whirl. It has been pulling me into the shop to look at it for a few weeks now and I folded and got it...well....needs must and all that................!!!!

So Scott got me a fitbit Alta from the very catalog and last night he set it up for me. Today I am giving it a whirl...this mostly involves wearing my trainers and the fitbit alta to make myself feel fit...there have been a couple of lunge sessions to music whilst going from my craft desk to my ebosser..well a girl has to try right??? oh and I musn't forget I did do some side steps whilst eating my cheese straw....I will get better at it though! I am currently at (....small pause while Lou double taps alta tracker to see....sod that...goes to phone to see instead...) oh 4,097 steps and 983 calories!! There we have it crafty peeps, proof that we excersise while crafting!! Get in!!!!!!!!

Right, off to step all the way to the kettle...bwah ha ha ha!! y'all can see this is going to be successful for me right now don't you?!!!!!

If you're happy and you know it...........

Papers- From my Pizza size 12x12 random box.
Morning all!!

It's Lou in for you today with anther one of those yummy pleated cards but this time I went for a more male version. I am sooooo in love with this pleated fold skirt thing at the minute! I just think it looks so cute and especially with the double sided papers.

This paper is from my scrumptious Pizza size 12x12 random box. It came with just over 50 sheets of random 12x12 papers and it is seriously so much fun to delve into that box because there are papers in there that I never would of thought of buying myself.

This cute october afternoon monster one is a perfect example of something I would not normally of bought but it goes so super duper well with those gorgeously cute Mama Elephant Monster Jam stamps! awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww I love it...I will probably just stroke the other 2 sheets I have left of this design from the box!!!!! lol!!!!

Hi everyone!
I'm in with a post for you today using the new Let's be Bunnies image from saturated Canary. Having 2 gorgeous bunnies of my own I couldn't resist playing with this cutie, I think she's just fabulous.

I thoroughly enjoyed having one of those 'splodge it all on' Lou moments with this one! well, you gots to have those days right?! and the funniest thing is..while I've been splodging this card together Scott has been busy putting our bunnies rabbit run together!!

My bunnies are just my babies! They are called William and Kate...after royalty of course!! and I adore them!

Mama Elephant- Honey Bunny Stamp Set

I couldn't resist joining in the Dies/Punches challenge over on the Passion for Promarkers blog, the Die Namics Blueprints 24 set still ranks in my top 5 of awesome die sets.  All I needed to do for this one was stamp and fold a card base with kraft card, that die set does all the tricky layout stuff for you!!!

I even added a little tab with the carrot stamp and glossy accented up the carrot for extra cuteness!!!
Right, time for cuppa number 2 of the morning. It's so chilly out there I had dragon breath when I went to feed my bunnies!!!

Thank you for popping in
