Well its a long time no blog from me
Now life seems to be settling back to normal around here ( for now anyway) and I have no more holiday planned (execpt maybe one in October for my birthday and them maybe one in November ..lol) I thought it was about time I got back into crafting.
Anyway here is my DT piece for Funky Fairies . I used the Gorjuss Ginghams and the Matt Blocks
Why not have a go and pop along to funky fairy inspirations for some free downloadable papers
and then show your art work off HERE
I am useless doing doodles so this is the best I could come up with

I will try better next week :(

It wasnt my first choice of card to make but I just coudnt ind the design I was looking for. Its turned out OK but I would have liked more time to work on it.

The matting blocks are great from a site called Funky Fairys Paper Craft I found by following a link on Sues blog . Thank you Sue its a great site
I was going to buy the Nesties to do these but these were only £1.50 so a great saving.

Hi everyone popping in again.
This is what I have been upto for the past few days
I decided to make small gifts for all the family for when the new baby arrives, Which can be any day now.
I couldnt do girl/boy ones because the parents dont want to know until it arrives so I had to stick to colours that hopefuly will suit both
They were made out of 1 sheet of 12 x 12 paper Maze Book


This is my now tidy craft room and all my new storage things I brought yesterday

Its so tidy now I dont want to use it and mess it all up...lol
