A Few Challenges........

Well I had started out doing this card for one challenge,but it managed to fit the theme in a few so I'm doing a multi challenge card.(Think that's a first for me)I'm usually missing the deadlines...lol.
I've used a Pixie Chick image and coloured her with Copics.(I've had these images for ages) I cut her out and mounted her on my oval nestabilities.
So I'm entering her in Colour Create Challenge 30 - All White (except image),Digital Tuesday - Things With Wings,ABC Challenge - F Is For Flying,Daring Cardmakers - 5 Favourite Things (Copic Markers,Nestabilities,Doodlebug,Glamour Dust,Flowers,Lace,Jewels, WhiteInk Essential Pen) and finally PaperPlay Challenge - Favourite Embellishment (Flowers)
Think that's them all...lol.

I also met up with some of my lovely bloggy buddies at the SECC on Thursday at the Craft show.We had a fab time and I spent too much...lol.My feet were killing me,but on the good side I heard Fleetwood Mac rehearsing for their concert that night.
So a big thank you to Kath,Lorraine,Gayle,Judy and her sister,Allison,Ann and my friend Janice for making it such a fantastic day.I also bumped into another fellow blogger a few times on the way round too.Laurane also has her own blog.
Here's a picture of the stash I bought.

My Body Combat/Pump instructor asked me if I'd make a card for her,for her niece's birthday.It was to be pink,girly and she wanted her name on it.Out came my trusty Gorjuss Girl Stamps.She's coloured with Copic Markers as usual and I've used plenty pink and flowers.I also made a matching box.

It's Only Me

I just wanted to apologise for not being around for so long.We've had a pretty stressful time here for the past wee while and I'd really just wanted to have a break from crafting and blogging for a bit.I even packed all my craft stuff away as I just couldn't be bothered.Thanks to everyone who have left comments and also emailed me.I appreciate it so very much.Thanks also to everyone who gave me awards too,which is so kind considering I've not been around.
Just wish whoever pinched my blog hits would give them back!.......lol. It's gone down instead of up.I didn't realise it did that if you didn't post...hehe.

I decided to go to the Hobbycraft show at the SECC yesterday even though I've not really been in the mood.I thought it might perk me up a bit and help me get back into the swing of things.I'm so glad I did. I met the wonderful Kath.I always knew she was a fabulously talented and lovely lady,and to meet her in real life was worth the visit alone.She kindly treated me to lunch and we had a lovely natter.
I also had another lady approach me and ask me if I had a blog as she thought she recognised me (not sure if that's a good thing!.....lol),so I got to meet the lovely Alison too. We had both been headed for the Sugar Nellie stand and bought some of the lovely new stamps.I think I got 6 in all and it was lovely to meet the Sugar Nellie ladies in person. I also bought far too many lovely papers,especially MME which are just gorgeous and a few other bits and pieces.Some card,white gel pen,box for my Crop-A-Dile Big Bite and two new pokey tools as mine keep disappearing.I actually came home with money for a change.....gasp!

I'll hopefully get round and visit everyone over the next few days and catch up. I've made a card with the lovely Little Darling Daisy but it was too dark to take a picture,so i'll upload it tomorrow.She's such a cute little image and at least it got me back into making a card.

Thanks for reading
