ENJOYING SOME "ME" TIME

As luck would have it,

I have found myself with some time to craft

and enjoy myself.

Once in a while, I like to use precoloured

digis to create some quick cards that still have

some degree of creativity.

Here I used a digi from Meljens Designs

called 'lovey pup'.

I printed off a few of the digis and created a couple 

of different designs.  Fast, easy and cute.

Having some time for myself, I have been attempting my

Copics once again.  This cross over card has

a hand created chiffon flower and a Copic coloured Tilda.

My friend Jenny is celebrating her birthday this weekend

and we were planning a little overnight trip to

Niagara Falls to take in a show and do a bit of shopping.  

But due to some nasty weather warnings, 

we have decided to cancel our plans.

Here is her card:

BUGSY's NEW BOATING ATTIRE

Bugsy is almost a year old now and is pretty

much full grown.  So his little ball caps that I made for him

last Summer, no longer fit him.

I am a stickler for protecting his eyes from the sun

just as I do my own, especially when we are on our boat.

I knew that if I waited until the Spring, I probably would not

get new caps made for him in time

for boating season.

Whenever I see fabric that I like, I buy a chunk and

tuck it away for 'something'.  In this case, the something

was new caps and matching bandannas for

my little man.

He has also outgrown his life vest so that will be the next

thing on his wardrobe shopping list.

Thanks for stopping by.

WELCOMING THE NEW YEAR WITH OPEN ARMS

Saying farewell to 2013 was much anticipated 

and much welcomed.

Last year brought many, many lows

but it's behind me now and

time to move forward.

Here are a few of my Christmas creations that did

not get posted.

This was my card that I made for my girlfriends.

Love me a poinsettia!

This little stamp has become one of my favourites for Christmas.

Although I chose unconventional Christmas colours,

I really love how these cards turned out.

And last but certainly not least,

here are a couple of recent BUGSY photos ...

Does this schnauzer like the snow? Ah, that would be a YES!!!

And he has finally decided to use his little bed that I

built for him ...

... as a means of jumping up on the filing cabinet

to get a better view of the street!

BFF's forever!

Thanks for stopping by.
