Swimming these days is a little bit weird, but I aim to do it every week, so I'll get better.  My Mum say's I've improved from last week and that was my first session (I didn't, I thought I was useless).  The only way to go is up!!!

Bunnies & Chicks - I love this time of Year!!!

Hi Everyone,
Hello again, it's only me with my second post.  I do like this time of year, the weathers changing (although not for the better!!!), there's the start of new life and it's a time for families again.  I know many children think it's all about chocolate eggs, but we must remember the reasons behind Easter.  Years ago I was one of those children, but it wasn't until 2010 that I now understand the reasons.
Enough of my rant, today I thought I'd give The Sweet Stop ago.  I chose to do Sketch #81.

Ad this is how my card turned out:

Fab 'n' Funky Challenge - Challenge #93 - Punches and Die-cuts

Hi Everyone,

Gosh!!!  You guys did it again, I'm so gob-smacked by all your hard work on your cards / projects.  I can't believe it, well it has to be said Well Done to the 3 which were hand picked.  And a extra Well Done for the overall Winner.  Well it's on with this weeks Challenge, which you have to use Punches and Die-Cuts.

Our Sponsor this week is The Stamping Boutique, which again is a wonderful shop.  I have spent hours on there looking at their stuff.   All the art is all hand drawn and original by, Tracey Malnofski. They are not computer generated or enhanced in any way.

Well I guess it's time to show you my card, and here it is:

I can only apologise about the state of my photography, I really need sometime when I can sit down and go through my new camera.

Well the Image was one from The Stamping Boutique, fantastic, you just have to love him!!!  I have coloured him in in Pro-markers, and finished off with a little bit of Glitter!!!  The Design Papers came from a book of colours, My Mind's Eye - Bohemia.  The Sentiment came from Hunkydory.  I added the Balloon's that I stamped out, and also the Hearts where a Martha Stewart Stamp was used.

Again, you can see the Hearts.

Well its your chance now, off you go and make something brilliant.  But remember the Punches and Die-Cuts.

Sweet Sketch Wednesday - #119 or #120

Hi Everyone,

This morning, I've been up dale and down!!!  That's if we have any dales where I'm from, doubt it!!!  No I've been to the Doctor's and then to the job centre, and then a quick walk round the market then home, that was my morning, was your's the same???

When I got in I went onto the tintinet and so I picked to do Sweet Sketch Wednesday and when I went onto their blog, they've got another great competion running, so go over and try and win one.

Anyway onto my card:

The Image is one of those Sugar Nellie stamps that is totally lovely.  She is coloured in using Pro-markers and just a little Glitter Pen.  The Design Papers are a combination of Papermania - Temptations and My Mind's Eye - Bohemia.  I then added a Ribbon through the centre which came from Create and Craft.  The Gems came from Kanban.

I then added some flowers, which seemed to go.  I decided to leave out doing a Sentiment and so you can send it for any reason.

I would like to put this one into the Challenge Sweet Sketch Wednesday - 119 or 120 (confusing cause on your diagram / sketch it says 120 and then in the writing it says 119).
