Hanglar Stamps For Sale ...

I got lucky this week and was able to buy a gorgeous Hanglar Stanglar stamp set from Ebay. I bought a second set too so if you'd like it email me - my email address is up there on the right - and I'll get it sent off to you. All I am asking for is the £33 that I paid for it plus £2 (United Kingdom) or £2.50 (everywhere else) for postage paid via paypal

Back in Business ...

I. Am. A. Useless. Blogger.  Yeah, yeah, yeah you've heard it all before I know. But at least I have a post for you today with something new which has been something of a challenge because the screen on my laptop is broken and I am having to use an antique :)

Ribbon Girl Colour Challenge

This is my entry for the Ribbon Girl colour challenge. This month the challenge is to make a yellow and green card and I used my lovely new Papertrey stamps as well as lots of goodies from the Ribbon Girl

Splashing in the Rain ...

I just adore the Molly Blooms stamps, especially this little puddle splashing Molly and she has the most perfect spotty welly-boots!  She just happened to be sitting on my desk this afternoon waiting for a few finishing touches when the postman brought a new supply of charms for the Ribbon Girl and look - umbrella charms!! They are so sweet and I love the brass colour - goes perfectly with the kraft cardstock and the distressed edges I gave to my favourite October Afternoon papers as well as the tea dyed gingham ribbon.
