Blog Giveaway from Injoy Stampin' with Robyn

Evening girls,

As most of you are aware I have become a you tube user and follower lately and one of my fav you yubers that I subscribe to is Robyn from InjoyStampin, which is her you tube name, if you would like to subscribe to her video channel. Robyn is the most caring and considerate woman I have had the pleasure of watching on you tube, very genuine and giving. You have to watch some of her videos girls because her mini albums are to die for they truly are and we both go in for the monthly mini swap over on the Scrapbeach and I would just kill to be her swap partner and receive one of her minis, it would be a real honour to be able to call one of her minis my own


This is just some of the booty you could win on her blog hehehe.

Anyway the point of my post is that Robyn is having a giveaway on her blog which you may want to join to have a chance to win this prize because it is lovely. Why don't you make the effort to pop over to her blog and follow her directions to be in with a chance. Also go over to Youtube and watch some of her videos you will not be disappointed at all. Good luck everyone.
In the meantime. . . .

Week 8 Challenge

This week over the challenge was to alter a recycled item or go green so too speak. I alter these tins all the time so I chose to do that this week as I sell so many of them. I love the brightess of these papers by Stampin' Up! and the flowers made with Stampin' Up! punches just complete the picture.


I hope this inspires you to go and find something that you would normally throw out and recycle and alter it. I would love to see what you make. That is all I have for you now.

Swap Sisters Week 6 Challenge

Hi everyone, this week over at Swap Sisters it was technique week and we all know what that means hey. . . . .it means I present the challenge for everyone and it is a technique that I choose. This week I chose the ghosting technique and I have to say that I just love it. I had forgotten how much fun it is to 'reveal' the image with the brayer lol. I chose SU Sense of Time stamp set which is no longer available but a real fav of mine so I keep using it lol.

I also used the Linen background stamp and an old in colour stamp pad colour which was River Rock. I hope you like what I have done. Okay that is it for me at the moment.

My First ATC

Hi everyone. Well today I did my first ATC and took part in my daughters meme on her blog. She runs it every Wednesday so if you would like to join in then please visit her blog and find out more about the details. It is themed each week and this week is was about the ocean. So the first thing I thought was Mermaids. And I went from there to what you see below being the finished ATC.

I have called my mermaid 'The Dreamer' and used tulle, and Prima flowers and pearls and of course glitz, cannot forget the glitz when one is working with mermaids lol. I hope you enjoy my offering today. I will be back with more tomorrow.
In the meantime. . . .

Project Tuesday BirdHouse

Hello everyone. I am such a bad blogger lately I really am. This week over at Project Tuesday the challenge was to create this beautiful little bird house and there was a template provided.

This is the front on view of the birdhouse, doesn't look too bad I hear you say. . . . . .

This is the side view and where you can see that things are not quite right with this picture lol. She had started to pull the roof capping off and the front bottom from the side and I was extremely happy that I had not attached the perch, bird or the butterflies as they could have been dead on the floor.
The bird is from The Timsters set Flight Of Fancy. I am not sure what the paper is I had it in my stash. The stick is from a little conifer just outside my front door. Hope you like it.
In the meantime. . . . .
