Wednesday all day.

I can't believe that my two weeks
annual leave from work is almost over.
It has been a busy two weeks
and I could use another two
weeks to get all I need done.

A few makes to share...

This notebook cover using tilda
is my take on a sketch by Dawny P
for Just Magnolia.

The main papers are Bo Bunny & a
wee bit of basic grey from my scrap box.

~~~~~T~~~~~

My card uses the same image,
I don't own this stamp but
it is one of my favorites.

I am entering it in colour throwdown
who want red, pumpkin and olive.
It is also my take on another Dawny P's
sketch this time from over at Papertake weekly.
I am also entering it in
my time to craft
who want it looks like Autumn.
The backing papers are
downloads that I forgot I had.


~~~~~T~~~~~

This card is for a friend who wants
it for a good friend on hers.

It is Stella from Bugaboo
I made the 'Me' background,
it is a standing joke between the
two girls.

I am entering it in a spoonful of sugar
who want spots and stripes.

~~~~~T~~~~~

Wednesday is Puppy Class night,
Bella is not as keen as Poppy
is to participate at class.
When Andrew appears Bella
sits and cries and wont do anything
but run over and sit at his side.

She is smart, but thrawn,
and does what she wants,
when she wants.....

Mind you, they both know
they are not meant to go
up on the sofa after being out
in the rain..........

*sigh*

Gnomes and Kitty Cats.

This must be my lucky week!
I won the weekly challenge over
at Pixie Dust's blog
and picked this wee guy as my prize!

I am entering this card in two challenges.
This is my take on Friday sketchers,
I have rotated the sketch around.

Passion for promarkers want you
to make your own flowers.
I made my flower
from bits of ribbon.
The main DP is basic grey.

~~~~~T~~~~~

Since this a pixie Dust Image
I thought I would take part in
their sketch challenge this week too.

The main DP on this card is Bo Bunny.

~~~~~T~~~~~

Next is a card requested by my sister
for her friend Alison.
She asked for me to use this stamp
and the three colours
Green, Blue & Turquoise.

I am entering it in sketch saturday.
I moved the image over a wee bit
as it was difficult to cut through
the layers, and I wanted to keep
as much of the paper lace in it as
I could, hope this is ok.
Oh Alice want a window on
this weeks card.

I am really enjoying my week off
and have plans for next week already
including the gym, lunch out and
a shopping trip to Aberdeen,
including the papermill.
Happy happy!!

Hope you are all happy today too xx

Moonlight and setting sun

I think one of the best things about blogging
crafty stuff is learning new techniques
and getting inspiration!

A sure place to get lots of inspiration
is over at Curt's world.
His photography is absolutely amazing!!
And his doggy boys are just gorgeous!

Curt has a link on his latest post
to Michelle Zindorf
who has done several tutorial
including using a brayer and ink
to create amazing cards.

So this is my attempt at this style of cards.

My moon is slightly two yellow
but I like the end effect.


I had a second attempt.
And this time, I made the sun too
yellow! I am never happy
am I?

You can't see it that clearly
but there is wee blue gems
on my second birdie.

I really enjoyed making these
and can see me playing with
this style again.

Hope you are grand.
Love Teen xx

cuddles and cuteness

I am having a great week at home,
to those people who say that
if they won the lottery they would still work....

I say....
NOT ME!!!!
I could easily amuse myself !

I made this card a wee while ago
but it only turned up at the person's house
yesterday so can only post it here now!

An alternative anniversary card.

I have the poem on the computer upstairs
it is all about how love is weird! LOL.

I am entering it in Scrapbook sisters Challenge
who want your make to go over the edge.
Thank you to Julie for suggesting same.


~~~~~T~~~~~


This is a card I made today,
for a cousin who I lost touch with 22 years ago
and found again online thanks to
facebook!!!

I am entering it in A spoonful of sugar
who say anything goes.
Oldie but a goodie, who need the image
to be more than 6 months old and
want pink & girlie.

~~~~~T~~~~~

This card was for my hubby's birthday.
I love the sentiment, even though
these older Magnolia's have no mouths!
What is it about stamps that have no mouths?

I am entering it in the first challenge over
at Ribbon girl's blog
who want orange, black & white.
and Creative Inspirations
who want two or more images.

~~~~~T~~~~~

This is for a fellow witchy mate!
LOL
I found it when looking
for the above Magnolia stamps,
and although I am early for Halloween
I love this stamp!

My time to craft want kids on the card
and this young lass is trick or treating.
Allsorts who want you to use 3 or more punches
well I have used three different punches
for my leaves.
I love this time of year, the pretty colours
as the leaves change is just stunning.

~~~~~T~~~~~

My fave pixie dust digital download!
*My Edward*
sigh....

The card I entered over there won
their challenge last week!
Wooo hoooo!

~~~~~T~~~~~

This card was for my Hubby
for our Wedding Anniversary
which is tomorrow!!!

It is my take on the sketch at Cute card Thursday,
Papertake weekly want animals
and Crafty Pad who want embossing.
The wee sheep & bird is a crafty pad stamp.

~~~~~T~~~~~

Poppy has not been replaced,
Bella has taken to snuggling up with
a huge toy dog called Dudley.

He doesn't seem to mind the smell of wet dog!

Notes and Kisses

Monday already,
I am on leave from work for two weeks
and have little planed except
catching up on odd jobs.

And a wee bit of crafting!

The photo of this notebook is not
very good but it is in the post
so I can't take another one.

Another notebook as part
of a collection of stuff for a
Birthday Pressie.
It is my pal Sue's dog in the picture
I used online thingy again
to turn a photo into a sketch.

I also made ten note cards
using the same sketch picture.
They are all simple but slightly different.

And lastly a card for my hubby.
It is our 16th Wedding Anniversary this week.
Not your usual card,
but has quotes from my fave film Twilight.
The image is Pixie dust the same as
Edward from the notebook above.


I am entering it in two challenges.
Pixie dust want fur or feathers.
Secret Crafter say anything goes.

Talking about love......
How sweet are these two???

They really do love each other
as only sisters can.....

They fall out and bicker,
want the same toy at the same time
and yet ....
they can be so sweet together.

Hope you are grand.

Love teen xx

stuff and bits.

Holla!
Hope things are all good with you guys,
things are ok here.

Few makes to show you,
this was from a sketch,
but I took so long between thinking
about it, and actually doing it,
that the challenge has passed
and I can't even mind who set the
sketch in the first place!!

Anyway....

I got a bit carried away with inking the
edges and I love these papers,
think they are basic grey.

~~~~~T~~~~~

This is an altered notebook,
using a Sugar Nellie Autumn stamp
which is on offer as a set just now.
I have added the persons name,
but don't want to show it on here
since I still haven't posted it yet....

I am entering it in three challenges....

Creative card crew,
A spoonful of sugar,
Allsorts,
who all want autumnal colours.

~~~~~T~~~~~

Lastly an easel card for a man at work
to give to his daughter.
The dog is actually Poppy.
I used a sketch thingy online to
used to alter a photo of her.
The papers are Bo Bunny.

Talking of Poppy.....
Here she is with her wee Pal Bella,
in their nice new bed.
Also known as their play pen....

Bella is a smidge taller and longer than Poppy now....
And still growing....

Love to you all.

Babes and Blooms

You know what it is like....
you make a few cards,
some you like....
and some not so much....


This one I do like.
Lady at work is very prompt with
keeping her filing up to date
and called the file fairy by
her co-workers.
She is also very fit.

So this was for her.....

This one I am very unsure of.
I have seen similar cards
with the paper cut into squares
and stuck in the pattern below.

The paper is Bo Bunny,
and more busy than I usually use,
But I think it looks sort of ok.
The flower is cut from Tim Holts die.

This one is using a down load called Stella
from Bugaboo, I love them!

Stella with a different hair colour!
LOL

Now for another couple of babes....
My wee brown eyed girls.
Bella managed to get into the
recycling box, where my Hubby
had put the empty sacks
the dog biscuits come in....

This took her about twenty minuets....

She also stole the plant from the table
and replanted it,
in several bits,
in a nice deep hole....

Bella is 6 months old,
and now just a wee bit taller
and longer than Poppy!

Am pretty tired today,
Andrew was on a night shift,
Poppy woofed at 1.30am
to let me know that she had scared
off the scary monster....

Bella woke me at 6am by poking Andrews
touch bedside lamp with her nose
and switching it on and off,
and on and off,

Like a disco!!!

*yawn*

Hope you are all well.

Love Teen xx

pink, black and white

Is it really only just Wednesday?

I know, you don't see me for weeks
and then two posts in a few days....
Life is just like that some times.

Anyway,
here is a wee card I made
for a friend at work.

House mouse stamp,
Bo bunny Paper...
erm not much more to say about it....

Tonight, Bella-Boo who is
6 months already passed her
6 week introduction to dog class.

I am very proud of her.
She is still growing and is just as tall if not
slightly taller than Poppy-Dog.

Loving these Black and white shots.

Bella is still growing into her ears!

This kennel has wheels !

Still love to snuggle with my big sister!

Hope you are all grand.
much love Teen & Co xx
