I think I might be back...for real!!

I moved my craft stuff to our new house this week and am really enjoying having some space to get inky!!  My daughter needed a card for a birthday party today and whilst trying to decide what to do I was checking out Just Add Ink and decided that the fun colour combo they have this week would be perfect.


I would never have put these colours together, but think it is just the funnest combo!!  Especially for a 5 year old, lol. 


What do you think? I didn't have any taken with teal so I used the aqua super nova glitter.  And I didnt' realise you can also add a neutral so I might even have another go at this at some stage.

I Stamped!!! and other BIG news!!!

Can you believe it I actually stamped!!!  Well I have actually stamped quite a bit over the last few months I just haven't blogged anything!!  I have had a few excuses though.  Number one being that we have been owner building our house (which should've been completed about a year ago according to hubby's original plans :) and things have been particulalry hectic as we get to the moving in stage (notice I said moving in stage not finished stage which was one of the original conditions on my agreeing to this crazy idea of owner building!!).  We are not all moved in yet but are on our way.

Anyway I must've remembered to forgive him and still must love hubby somewhat as we are also pregnant!!  Due at the end of October.  So I have been extremely exhausted much more so that with my other pregnancies which I am putting down to being older, fatter and mothering two energetic little girls.

So there are my excuses and big news!!  And here are some cards:
