Lookin' Shark (DT) Dies To Die For

  Morning all, today for my Dies To Die For make I am bringing you a dose
of Whimsy fun from Dustin Pike, guaranteed to raise a smile


Thankfully I didn't see any of this kind of drama at the beach yesterday!  The nearest we got to that was a small child throwing an absolute tantrum because she'd been told to return an item that she'd "acquired" from somewhere along the prom.  I'd rather take my chance with a shark!


Images all painted with Distress Inks (ReInkers) and fussy cut,  The shark is a separate stamp to the porthole (just in case you were thinking it was an all in one) so the hole has been layered over the shark.

Bright Future (DT) Dies To Die For

Morning all, happy weekend to you!

I'm one of those crafty weirdos who doesn't mind making male cards, so when a new male image becomes available I get a little bit excited.

Dark red card is DCWV from stash
I don't have the die for this stamp so little chap has been fussy cut

Sitting Pretty (DT) Dies To Die For

  Hello chaps, hope you have something lovely planned for this super sunny Saturday!

Well, Spring is well and truly in the air now (you should have seen me scraping the frost off the car yesterday morning), flowers are blooming and the trees are greening


So for this floral explosion I have used

I used Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens for the inking up on this one.  I'm not sure what's going on with the photo as my camera doesn't seem to like a particular shade of pink that I used for the right hand tulips and her t-shirt, IRL they are very definitely pink!

Adorable Adventures (DT) Dies To Die For

  Assuming you're not still in a queue for Primark or Debenhams, good morning - honestly, I think the world has gone mad.  Rushing into town to buy a new pair of flip-flops has been pretty low on my agenda for this week.

Anyhoo, I am here with another Birdie Brown make.


Stuff used

Whole scene coloured with Distress Inks (ReInkers) and Distress Ink pads.

Mice Day To Celebrate - again (DT) Dies To Die For

Here we are on a wild and windy Saturday and I really look like I have been blown inside out - jeez, I am in desperate need of a haircut, it's been six months since my last trim, and it was getting longer then.  In another couple of weeks I'll be able to have bunches!!

Anyhoo, the really good news is that I got vaccinated last weekend, hurrah.  Can't fault the vaccination centre at all, I was in and out in 5 minutes.  I felt fine.  Went to bed Saturday night, feeling fine.  Woke up early Sunday morning with the mother of all headaches and joint aches.  Headache had gone by Monday night, but I've had snuffles and a sore throat, and definite tiredness.  BUT all those are minor compared to the virus itself, so I'm a happy little rodent.

So, I did warn you that the mice from Birdie Brown had gone straight into the top 5 on my favourites list, and to prove it, here's another one.



I have used

Meece and his box painted with Distress Inks (ReInkers) as watercolours.

MFT Superstar 2019 - Clean And Simple Genius

Hello chaps, yes, no need to check your calendar, it really is Sunday and I am posting.

Friday saw the launch of the 2019 MFT Superstar Contest - there are three catergories, as before, Colouring Virtuoso, Clean And Simple Genius, and Innovation Master.

In past years I have entered two of the three categories, but this year I am being kind to myself and only entering one.  This is my entry for the Clean And Simple Genius category.


All the products used are MFT of course, and were purchased in the UK from Dies To Die For
(which is where the links will take you)


Cuddly bear painted with Distress Inks (ReInkers) as watercolours.

OK, so I am off to link this up to the contest before my nerve cracks.

Hugs to all

Flowers In Bloom (DT) Dies To Die For

You find me feeling a little sad, this morning, sniff.  It's the end of my week off work and I can feel the "routine" about to kick in again ready for Monday.  BUT, we have had a good week, we have been out and about but still found some relaxing time too.  For my birthday Himself took me to see Toy Story 4 (which was brilliant!), and we went on the St Elizabeth Hospice Elmer On Parade trail around town.  There are a LOT of elephants, 55 big ones and 84 smaller ones (in herds), and we came nowhere near finding them all so we cheated a bit and bought the lovely souvenir book from the Hospice shop so we could at least admire all the amazing artwork on the Elmers.

Anyhoo, out and about on our travels this week, Himself and I have spotted lots
of beautiful wild flowers in the hedges and verges.


Lovely things used for this are:

Flowers painted with Distress Inks (ReInkers)
and the off the edge-ness was my freehand fussy cutting with a craft knife.

Have yourselves a wonderful week, and, if it gets as hot as is predicted, keep the fluid intake up!

Chevron Accents (DT) Dies To Die For

Morning all, are you ready for a hot one?  Make sure you take care of yourselves, and keep hydrated.

You might need a stiffer drink now - something a little out of the ordinary from me today, there isn't a stamp in sight!


For this die-cut masterpiece (!) I have used

Well that has my nerves tingling!  I think I need to reach for the paintbrush.....

Hugs to all
