Phew!...Can Access My Blog Now!...

Hi all. I have been a bit freaked out today as my computer would not let me access my own blog! Whenever I tried a warning would pop up saying my blog contained Malware content from another blog (a blog that I follow that was on the blog list in my sidebar). Seems I'm not the only one who's had this problem with their blog today. So for now I've had to delete my blog list sorry, but will try to add it again tomorrow. But it's done the trick, I can now access my blog. All is scanned and fine. Sorry if you tried to visit my blog and also had this scary warning. All is fine now...promise! xx

CES Challenges ~ Recycle It!...

 Hi all! Wow, a week since I blogged! Sorry about that....just been a bit busy with family stuff. I'll try not to leave it so long this week.

Time for a new challenge over at CES Challenges!

Sheena's turn to pick our theme, and she chose;

RECYCLE!

I decided to use  this fab 'Josh' image from DigiStamp Boutique that I coloured up a while ago with my Copics.

 From Crafty Emma's Store I used;

Echo Park Happy Days papers,

Bakers Twine,

Buttons.

I also used;

My HUGE Whimsy Stamps 'Street Art' stamp,

White Pigment Ink,

Whimsy Stamps Sentiment Stamp,

Nestabilities Lables 17, and Star Dies,

The stars are cut from my recycled item ~ cardboard food packaging,

Hope you'll join us this week, can't wait to see what you recycle!

Many thanks for stopping by!

A Gem Of A Challenge 30 ~ My Sketch! & CES Challenges 54 ~ Embellish Me More!...

Hi all! Many thanks for your visits this week. I do start to catch up with you all....then seem to fall behind again! I'm sure it will be much better when Ben it at school full time. He's just doing a couple of hours a day for now to break him in gently. My eldest Son's high school hours are much earlier start and finish times that most schools....and the girls are at their school till half three. I'm back & forth doing school runs for what seems like all day long! There just aren't enough hours in the day at the moment.....so I have killed two birds with one stone today and made one card to fit both of my DT spots.

First at A Gem Of A Challenge it's my turn to host, and I have this sketch for you to follow if you'd like to play along (many thanks to Janet for making it look all pretty xx)....

I decided to use my Ellie & Gingerbread stamp from Pink Gem Designs.

I coloured her with Copics.

Then over at CES Challenges, our lovely Claire has picked a fab theme for us....

''Embellish Me More'' (4 or more different types of embellies)
