Spring Pinterest Inspiration - Simon Says Stamp DT Card

Hello peeps!
I hope you mummy's out there had a lovely Mother's Day. I worked a 14 hour shift on Mother's Day but my babies treated me with gorgeous cards & gifts :)
I haven't achieved much crafting wise this week as I've been trying to do a bit of Spring cleaning & I do tend to get a little carried away when I'm in a cleaning mood! Hubs long standing joke when I'm in a cleaning mood is telling the "kids" and fur babies to keep moving before I cover them in Bees Wax or tidy them away, & to be honest he may have a point lol.

It's Wednesday which means ..........

& this week our challenge is

Spring Pinterest Inspiration

I have made this mood board for us to use, choose one or more pins from this board for your inspiration ! Spring has arrived in some areas and is on the way in others (at least on half the planet), and Easter is on the way, as well! There are many places to find inspiration!

 My lovely teamies and I are featuring

I am guilty of having ahem, let's just say quite a lot of Magnolia stamps that are very neglected, especially the accessory stamps so I am going to make more effort to use them again.
I couldn't find the lamb I used to link to so I have linked to another from the same collection, the fancy corner is made with Martha Stewarts Crafters Clay & I've altered a little Prima nest again to make it smaller.

The copic colours I've used are -
Tilda - skin - E11, E00, E000, R12, hair - E43, E41, E40,hat - E53, E51, E50 / Y32, Y21, Y000, top - RV63, RV00, RV000, dungarees - B23, B21, B0000, boots - W3, W1, W0

Things That Fly! - Simon Says Stamp DT Card

Hello peeps!
I've had a few days off work and I am thoroughly enjoying spending time in my craft room :)
I don't know what is wrong with me at the moment but I'm in that zone where I have ideas galore keep popping in my head and I just want to keep playing, not that I'm complaining of course lol.

 It's Wednesday which means ..........

I can honestly say I don't know quite how this card happened lol!
I'd intended using a cute Magnolia stamp so I chose the colours and papers I wanted to use and was looking through my dies and somehow I am making a totally different card to what was in my head!
I am happy with the finished result even though my copics and Magnolia's were neglected, & I hope my mum is too :)

 We have the tedious chore of doing our monthly grocery shop today, hubs loves it I on the other hand am not a patient shopper! I'm a list girl & as long as I have everything crossed off my list I want out of there while hubs on the other hand likes to browse. I've never known a man enjoy shopping as much as hubs does, he's very strange lol.

 That's me finished for today peeps, thanks for stopping by
