my work space & blog candy.

The lovely Dawn has had more than 20,000 blog hits as is celebrating by doing blog candy.
This is what she is saying about her blog candy.....

"All you have to do is take a photo of your crafting space/room and if you're in the photo even better (and if you have any furry crafting buddies I would love to see them too~!!) - It's great to put a face to the name!!! - Post it on your blog, leave a comment so I can come visit and leave a wee post on your blog about my candy giveaway! That's it!
A winner will be chosen on Friday 31/10/08 at 8pm."

Now I have a thing about not putting photos of myself on my blog, I never have done.

But here is my work space..... Brace yourself! It's a lot of stuff in a small space!


I have started posting cards I make for challenges instead of keeping them like I had been doing.

And of course, my fury crafty Buddy.....Poppy La Pooh!

She spends much time digging her blankets on the spare bed,
which has also now decided is where she likes to sleep at night!
Her friend in the background is Dudley the dog who she likes to throw off the bed usually at me when I am trying to craft!

brrrrrr.........

Man it's cold here today, heavy hale and sleet showers were frequent today,
and forecast is for below zero tonight.

Being Thursday, it was out for weekly blood test,
and then I took sandwich home for me and Andrew.

Pops is on restricted walking with her sore paw but this afternoon turned into a

Tasmanian she devil!

So back to normal walking tomorrow!!!
I have an order for five cards for a friend of a friend.
Have done two of them so far.
I am finding it harder to make a card for someone I don't know.

But I gave it a go.

This one is as you can see for a 40year old Aberdeen Football club supporter.
The tartan is Aberdeen football club tartan! I downloaded it as well as club logo.
And Pittodrie is where the team ground are.
I tired it with a white square on top of the tartan but it didn't look right.



This one all I got on bit of paper was special sister in law and something cute.....
I think Tilda looks cute!

The two are using a couple of downloads by my lovely friend Debbie who designs for Crafty Templates. I love this wee Teddy.
The glitter glue is not quite dry on it yet.

I love this download.

The trouble I seem to have with downloads is the edges seem to smudge when I am colouring them in.
Is it my printer or dose anyone have this problem?

This wee lady is by the lovely Sammi who has a couple of different ranges of fairies, gnut people and now wee flower girls for sale.

Her face got a wee bit smudged while I was colouring her in.
Any tips anyone?
I have tried using the watercolors, pencils and my new fave pens with a blender pen.

She is also not quite dry but thought I would show her anyway.

The final picture is a simple wallet card, I like the stark contrast of teh shimmery black with teh vream and shimmery hot pink.
My new stamp is kind of Rennie Macintosh and I love the swirls.
It will be posted off to someone tomorrow. With some images tucked safely inside.
Sent with love.....
