Snowflake Kisses - Simon Says Stamp DT Card

Hello lovely peeps,
I'm still coughing, wheezing and feeling wiped out but I do feel so much better than I did last week thankfully. All the things I wanted to get done while "resting" didn't quite happen as all I wanted to do was sleep & I didn't have the energy to fight tired eyes so sleep is what I did.

Gareth & his girlfriend came back from holiday in Menorca on Monday, & Jodie is off the the TT Races in the Isle Of Man tomorrow, so just as I get on top of one lot of holiday washing another will appear, fabulous lol. Hubby was going to go to the TT Races as well but he's not up to a few days camping yet so he'll be staying home watching it on TV instead this year which he is disappointed about but it's another goal for him to work towards on his road to recovery.

On to today's card -

My lovely teamies and I are featuring Lil' Inker  &/or Newton's Nook products on our creations this week, if you have any we'd love to see them but as always it's not compulsory to use them to join our challenge.

My eye was immediately drawn to this little cutie when browsing in store for a stamp to use on my card & it's called "Snow Mouse" by Lil' Inker.
I like to make different style cards from time to time & must have been in a "distressing" kind of mood when I created this card as I got a little carried away with my scissors & gesso lol.
The copic colours I've used are -
W4, W2, W0 / R83, R81, RV10 / C3, C1, C00 /RV93, RV91

That's me finished for today peeps,

Ice Cream & Tilda - Simon Says Stamp DT

Hello lovely peeps,
I am so full of cold at the moment I'm told I am stinking the house out with Olbas Oil which I think must make a nice change from my usual White Fig & Patchouli burning oil, obviously I can't be sure of this as I can't smell a flipping thing lol. I can't believe I got through Winter with barely a sneeze & at the start of the lovely weather a heavy cold turns to a chest infection & I get a high temperature & I'm practically glowing lol. Typical, but I may at last get around to colouring some new stamps, updating my Etsy shop, uploading on Splitcoast etc etc, I've got to look on the bright side lol.

I'm entering my card in the following challenges -

I am trying to find that organised girl I used to be & I have what seems to be a never ending "to-do-list"! As I'm doing little else but chillin' on the sofa & blogging I am going to tackle the "blogs I'm following list" as I reached my limit a while ago of blogs I could follow & I noticed the other day while having a hop around that some blogs on my list don't exist anymore, or haven't been updated in three years, or even have been assigned to someone else & contain the most bizarre blog posts which I won't say what they are but they are in no way related to any form of crafting lol.
Don't panic if I follow your blog & you're still posting as I will not stop following any active blogs, I come across lovely blogs that are new to me all the time & I want to make room for them to join my reading list :)
That's me finished for today peeps,
