Glitter and glitz Paris

Hi hope everyone had a lovely Easter. I had a busy time , my Hubby and I went out on Saturday with my Son and grandaughter to Cleveleys. We had a lovely time ,but it was very cold and windy on the front. We had a potter around the shops for an hour while Maddi and her Dad played on the beach. I t was the first time that she had been in the sea. Even though it was quite cool she had run about with no clothes on splashing about and had a great time. He had made a little video of her giggling away in the water.

Sunday we had an Easter egg hunt at 7am as she knew Easter Bunny had been. Monday I had some time to myself and did some crafting. I managed to do some more of my Wedding Book. I will be able to show you soon. I also managed to use my Glitter and Glitz Paris cd and make a card for a very dear friend of mine. The card is actually longer than a A3 card, so had to join the box together. My card wasn't as strong as I would have liked But it's done now. I just hope she likes it. I am going to add some ribbon around  both sides of the middle section before  I give it to my friend for her birthday.
Thanks for stopping by. I always appreciate all your lovely comments. Happy crafting Hugs x ChrisB

Bah humbug - stockings

I have managed to get my card for the Bah humbug challenge. This week it's Christmas stockings, I  have made the card over the last two days in my dinner time at work. I stamped my image and coloured it with promarkers then added a touch of glitter.  Stuck on my backing paper ,I think it was free with a magazine.Used a Martha stewart punch for the border and cut a ribbon of backing paper. Stamped one of my Lili of the valley sentiment stamps and edged it with promarker. I hope you are all enjoying this great weather and having a good week.

Thanks for taking the time to visit. Hugs x ChrisB

Gosh!! a new week.

Gosh!! A new week already . I can't believe it, since my son came home and Maddison is here every weekend. The time seems to be going twice as quick. I have a two quick cards to show you. I made them yesterday outside in the sunshine. They were made with very limit craft stuff as Lee was fast asleep and  didn't want to creep about as he works nights. I made  Warren the rabbit easter cards, I think he's so cute. Thanks for visiting. Hugs x ChrisB

Glorious weather.

Hi everyone glorious weather here again today. Posting these pics then I am off outside to do some more pages in the sunshine. Here are two pages they just need some finishing touches yet but thought I'd let you have a peek at them. There will be 8 of them to make the book up in all. Happy crafting, hope the sun is shining for you. Hugs x ChrisB. Thanks for visisting.

Hi everyone.

Hi everyone, hope your week is going well, can't believe it's nearly weekend again. I haven't anything to show you today, but I am crafting away. I'm working on a Wedding Book. I've been asked to make two over the top Wedding cards for the same couple's wedding. I decided to make a wedding book for the first one as it's off the Mother of the bride. I just hope she will be pleased with it. I'm making  8 pages and have finished 2 at the moment. I'm working from an idea that was in last months Craft stamper magazine. which was a Nature book. I will try to take a picture tomorrow to show you.
I'm struggling at the moment as my Son as moved back home. I moved into his bedroom 4 years ago and made it into my craft room, with built in units. I am now sharing the space. So every time I try to craft I have to work in a metre space and tidy everything up afterwards. Plus every weekend I have my Little grandaughter over to stay so can't craft then so she doesn't hear me and goes to sleep.
Thanks for visiting. Will  hopefully see you tomorrow. Hugs x ChrisB

Bah humbug - humourous

Wow this as been a hard one this week. Looked through all my stamps and nothing. I had given up when I spotted a paper chain I had bought my Granddaughter at Christmas. It made me smile, especially the snowcat and the snoozing snowman. I added a smiley jolly snowman and that was it.
Thanks for visiting. Hope it made you smile. Hugs x ChrisB
