Happy Monday Crafters. Today I have made these cards. I started with the blue tailed Peacock, but wasn't happy with it for the challenges I had in mind, so I made the green tailed version with a metal feather. Then I didn't want to waste the first bird, so I finished it off decoupaging the Peacock, and now I'm not sure which I like the best. Which do you prefer?</div>

The rain has returned to Malvern, but the air's still humid enough to give us a lovely thunder storm last night. So instead of going out today, I've stayed in and done some jobs around the house that I've been putting off for ages, and then I sat down with a coffee and made a card for my friends birthday.</div>

The plane was stamped, coloured with AP and markers, masked with a Post it, and the sky sponged over it with a scalloped circle to mask the clouds. Three tree tops were stamped below it, and finally a green wind sock greeting was added on a white pole.</div>

I stamped the trees in Versamark and heat embossed them with white powder, and sponged over them and a Post It note sun with the Fall colours, I did the same to some leaves on a strip of white card, but also added some randomly stamped leaves. I embossed some stripes on brown card and laid this by the side of the stamped card with 3D pads on a base. Instead of ribbon, the cards were wrapped with plated raffia of the three colours for a more masculine feel, and the trees and sentiment were added also on 3D pads.</div>

Buttercup is still with us, although she thinks she is a dog instead of a donkey!? She wont drink from a bucket yet so is still being bottle fed, much to my sister's annoyance as she isn't getting much sleep. I will be going to see her on Tuesday so I'll see how much she's changed over the weekend.</div>

I embossed some white card with diagonal stripes and laid it on some yellow card. I stamped some grey lattice and wrapped it with yellow organza ribbon, and added it to the base cards. I made a yellow and grey label with daisies, placing it down on 3D pads and topped with a butterfly. The sentiment was tucked under the lattice, and the finishing touches were the gems added to the butterfly. </div>

The last few weeks have been a complete nightmare. The long awaited donkey foal, Buttercup, became an orphan when her mother died two days after giving birth from complications, and we are all trying to care for her at my sisters (Alison ) house as she needs to be bottle fed every 2 hours. With 2 kids, 2 dogs, and a donkey in the house you can imagine the chaos, especially when the kids were off school.</div>

To top this, Ali's neighbour had a huge house fire which has badly damaged her own house, so the insurance assessors are sending builders and glaziers round for repair work quotes. Then my neighbours husband suddenly died!............they say things happen in 3's, so I hope that is the lot now. ( fingers <b>AND</b> toes crossed )</div>

Here is Buttercup having a little snooze, and in the rear of Ali's car with Duff Duff her dog, on their way to the field to see the other donkeys. She isn't strong enough yet to be left with them all day as she has no mother to feed her or keep her warm and safe. We say a lot of prayers at the moment to make her strong enough to survive, but we still have a long way to go yet before she is out of danger of catching an infection and falling ill.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<br />
<br />
I will keep you informed of her progress.</div>

Yaaaaay! I was the Featured Stamper with <a href="http://colorthrowdown.blogspot.co.uk/">Color Throwdown</a> last week with my Circus Mouse card, and as a result I have been asked to be their Guest Star Stamper this week. OMG ! I was so excited, that it took me ages to decide what to do with their colours</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Well, after some deliberation, here is the card I came up with</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgr-dQbnD73jdkH0U64MfYlHd9Akrbb3wqOJ-TMB8oA8t32u2Y8cSaCtGr15KatKL11gXsThZCQVYdH0rlxSVD6DFV8sRY6ueunxbgUOq-SVuByqk1ui41-T8PxqE4RySQ1hIXg39dO9GPl/s1600/DSC05739.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgr-dQbnD73jdkH0U64MfYlHd9Akrbb3wqOJ-TMB8oA8t32u2Y8cSaCtGr15KatKL11gXsThZCQVYdH0rlxSVD6DFV8sRY6ueunxbgUOq-SVuByqk1ui41-T8PxqE4RySQ1hIXg39dO9GPl/s1600/DSC05739.JPG" height="400" width="300" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Using the <a href="http://colorthrowdown.blogspot.co.uk/">Color Throwdown</a> palette, I stamped the blue wood grain background through a Framelit aperture, and topped it with a flower coloured with my AP and markers. Some leaf sprigs and sentiment banner were added, with some Mini gems on the centre of the flower to finish.</div>

Hi All, I hope you've had a nice Bank Holiday? Mine was hectic, but my Sisters donkey finally gave birth to a new donkey foal that we have been waiting for (seems like it's been months!!) I have yet to take a photo of her ( Buttercup) but will post it when it's done.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now, I found time to craft today for the first time in a week, and here's the card</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I stamped two flowers and the leaves on the white card, laid it on green card, and then with 3D pads onto some wood stamped brown card. A third flower was stamped, fussy cut, and added to the top panel with a sentiment banner. To finish I put some mini gems on the flower heads.<br />

Yaaaay! My Peacock card was Top 3 at <a href="http://trystampinontuesday.blogspot.co.uk/">Try Stampin' on Tuesday</a> challenge #178, so a big "Thank You" to their lovely DT.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A quick post tonight as it's very late, but here's the card I've made for my Mum's birthday on Sunday</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I stamped the lattice on brown card, and laid it on red card. I stamped the flower ring, coloured it with my AP and markers, then fussy cut it out and laid it on 3D pads on some wood effect card cut with a Framelit.I fussy cut some foliage and added them under a chipboard heart covered in red card that was embossed with gold word "Mum". The finishing touches (that you cant really see in the photo) were the mini pink gems in the flower centres.</div>

Hello All, I can't believe that it's Friday already! What happens to the time?, as each day seems to pass quicker than the day before it!<br />
<br />
Oh well, today, I've made this playful card </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjld4lFDi1B5KGsTZYz70lbZdljyrxqlbyy9mLLgSjf3P50Ydj400pJaunF2PTWIHVsUmU74mS9bxRqhhC6NPPRknhdbDCPZIkx0CN2Gt1kz5mnjMRch220wKarQ_v4of612vSr9rPrUBMf/s1600/DSC05642.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjld4lFDi1B5KGsTZYz70lbZdljyrxqlbyy9mLLgSjf3P50Ydj400pJaunF2PTWIHVsUmU74mS9bxRqhhC6NPPRknhdbDCPZIkx0CN2Gt1kz5mnjMRch220wKarQ_v4of612vSr9rPrUBMf/s1600/DSC05642.JPG" height="300" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I embossed some strips of green and blue cards, rounded the ends, and laid them side by side like the frill on a Big Top tent, over the top of some white glitter card. I stamped and coloured the mouse with my AP and markers, fussy cut him out, and placed him on 3D pads on the glitter card. The two hats he is juggling with were also placed on 3D pads so they look like they are in the air. The finishing touch was a strip of glitter card and the sentiment label.</div>

Still no sign of the donkey foal, and fingers crossed ( if I could ) it wont happen till late tomorrow, when my sister is home from their holiday!<br />
<br />
Thankfully, the heatwave we were having seems to have ended, only to be replaced with thunder storms, rain, and cold winds!. I seem to be the only one who is happy about it, as the drop in air pressure helps my RA.<br />
<br />
Anyway, have a great weekend whatever you have planned, and I'll be back soon<br />

Today, I have still not had the call about the donkey going into foal, but my thoughts are with my good friend who has just found out that her battle with Cancer is on again, as the dreaded disease has returned. My friend Jacqueline came around, and I tried to take my mind off things by crafting, and I came up with this card</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I still had Jacqueline's borrowed stamp set of By the Tide on my table, and with the theme of Holidays, I thought of snorkelling in the sea, and so the card was born!</div>

Still no donkey foal, and I'm in panic mode every time the phone rings?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: start;">To take my mind of it, my friend came round this morning to craft, and I made this card</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: start;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: start;">The wooden background was stamped on natural card and laid on a base. I then added some navy card with a MENU label added on the bottom. I die cut a cream circle, and drew an inner broken circle with a marker to make it look like a plate. I fussy cut a lobster and put it on the plate on 3D pads. I downloaded some clip art cutlery and stamped a pattern on the handles before grouping them together with a raffia bow. The finishing touch was the sentiment tag on the bow.</span></div>

This is my second post tonight, just in case I get the call to go to my sisters field at any minute ( her donkey is due to go in to labour any minute)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
First, I must say a big "Thank You" to Broni at <a href="http://colorthrowdown.blogspot.co.uk/">Color Throwdown</a> who said that she thought one of the outstanding cards in their challenge this week was my Peacock card, with "<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 20.799999237060547px;">Gorgeously colored peacock and great embossed background panels!"</span> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now, here's my CAS card</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
First, I stamped the wood texture on white card, and placed it at the lower half of the base card, with a wobbly line around the top half. Next, I stamped the mouse on white card, coloured him with my AP and SU markers, and cut it with a Framelit in the Big Shot. This was then added on top of the wood panel with a sentiment printed on my laptop. The finishing touch was the gem dewdrop on the apple. </div>

Happy weekend everyone!. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Well, I've waved off the family as they drive down to Devon for a weeks holiday........and I'm glued to the phone as my sisters donkey is about to foal any minute, and I'm in the hot seat if it goes into labour!Aaaaah!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
While I wait, I've made this card</div>

I wrapped some Raffia around some pale yellow card that I had embossed, and laid it off centre on a white base. On 3D pads, I then added a yellow card square and topped it with a smaller white one, onto which I stamped two flowers and sentiment. Next, I stamped three yellow flowers and fussy cut them out, and arranged them with some punched leaves above the sentiment. The finishing touches were the gems in the flower centres and flower heads.</div>

Yaaaay!, my Seagull card made Top 3 at <a href="http://mimchallegeblog.blogspot.co.uk/">Make My Monday</a>, so a big "Thank You" to their lovely DT.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Today I've been rushing here, there, and everywhere, but I have managed to make this card ( and at 10.20pm I hope I'm not too late with this post for some of the challenges.)</div>

The Kingfisher was stamped on white card and coloured with my AP and SU markers, and cut with a Nestie. I then stamped the wood texture on some neutral card, tore the edges, and laid it with 3D pads on some blue card. The sentiment was stamped and placed below the wood, and the Kingfisher label added on 3D pads with two leaves in the corner. Some more leaves were added as bunting in the opposing corner.</div>

I first stamped the sprigs of leaves and the lattice, and then added the sentiment over it. I then stamped the flowers, fussy cut them out, and arranged them over the leaves. One of the yellow flowers was laid on 3D pads, and the finishing touches were the mini gems in the centre of the flowers and 3 scattered around the lattice.</div>

The flower was coloured with markers and AQ, fussy cut and laid down with 3D pads. Some leaves were stamped and tucked under it, and the sentiment stamped alongside. It was finished off with a butterfly and two yellow buttons.</div>

Happy Monday everyone! I hope you've all had a great relaxing weekend, and are ready for another week of crafting?<br />
<br />
Today I've got a card I've made for my friend to show you<br />
<br />

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Peacock was stamped in black and coloured with my AP and SU markers, and then fussy cut and laid on some white card on 3D pads. I then embossed some blue, green, and red cards, and layered them side by side on a white base. The Peacock panel was layered on top, and a sentiment and some gems were added. The finishing touch was the single feather on 3D pads, and topped with a Mother of Pearl button and red ribbon bow.<br />

I'm off to my Sisters tomorrow, as Nathan and Sophie want to do some crafting and make a card for Nana's birthday on the 24th of this month. We're hoping it will keep them busy enough to calm them down, as they are so excited about going on holiday on Saturday. They have already packed their cases with toys they want to take, and keep asking " how many sleeps till we go now Mummy?"<br />
<br />
Here are my little darlings wearing their holiday Onesies.<br />

I stamped the lion, then masked him so I could sponge the grass and stamp the long grasses around him using my markers. I then fussy cut the grass into a triangle for the foreground of the card. Next, I repeatedly stamped a tree (coloured with my markers) for the bushes and again fussy cut it into a triangular shape for the middle ground. Lastly, hiding behind the bushes I stamped a nosey giraffe, and the sentiment. The pieces were then put in their place with the lion and foreground raised on 3D pads.</div>

Hello, I hope you are all having a great weekend? This is my first day out of bed after my hospital treatment, so I still feel a little fragile. To start the day off gently, I have made this Butterfly card.</div>

The main image consists of the word "Butterfly" in different languages, with small butterflies flying around. I coloured the whole image with my AP, and the small butterflies with my markers. I then stamped the image on some saffron card to cut out the two tags, and stuck them down on 3D pads. This was then laid on some coral and saffron card that had been wrapped with a ribbon and bow. The large butterfly was coloured with my AP and markers and placed on the large tag with 3D pads. To finish it off, I added the sentiment, two Swallowtail butterflies and gems on the insects bodies.</div>

This is my second card of the day. I am going to give it to my friend who has bad Gout and Arthritis in her foot, and she is hobbling about at the moment on my borrowed crutches.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When I saw the "Singing in the Rain" theme at Less Is More, I thought of the iconic dance scene where Gene Kelly dances around a lamppost, and so I went straight for my lamppost stamp. After stamping it I coloured it with my AP and markers, fussy cut it out and placed it on a base card. The dots and drops were stamped </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
in the opposing corner with random teardrop gems added. To give the design some colour and texture, I stamped the small flowers and leaves and grouped them at the base of the lamppost. I know it's corny, but the only sentiment that I could think of was "Feel better soon", as the rain drops made me think of being "Under the weather".</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

I will be entering these challenges :<br />

My plans for today with my niece and nephew, were postponed until tomorrow, so I've been crafting in front of the fan instead. This is the card I've made </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The first thing I did was sponge a water and sky scene on a white base card. I then stamped the wood grain on some brown card to make a beach groin, and cut a hole towards the top. I then cut a white ring with Nesties, and pieced together the sentiment from various stamps, and coloured two areas in red so it looked like a safety ring. This was placed on 3D pads around the hole in the wood, which was then stuck over the base also on 3D pads. I randomly stamped the flourish in white on some blue card and fussy cut half of it so it looked like a wave crashing against the groin, and this was stuck along the bottom of the card. I added a Sea gull sitting on the ring, and finished with some pearls for bubbles.</div>
