Faldaree Deirdery

Oh, I love to go a-wandering
Along the mountain track
And as I go I love to sing
With a knapsack on my back

Faldaree, faldarah, faldaree, faldarah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
Falderee, faldarah a knapsack on my back.

Faldaree Deirdery is setting off for a trek up a mountain, something she likes to do at the weekend, personally I am more into lies in, copious quantities of tea and a takeaway at the weekend! You can find Faldaree Deirdery HERE. Hope you have a good weekend, whatever you choose to do!

Weekend Walter

Not a pretty sight, but at least the furry monster slippers match the cuppa. And as Father's Day is rapidly approaching, Weekend Walter is the perfect image to that perfect guy.

Mini Cooper


Just love this image it reminds me of the film Italian Job with the coach rocking to and fro on the mountain edge. My first card was a Mini and it was red, I hated going out in the rain in it. If you went through a big puddle the engine cut out!! The Good old days


You will find this image along with lots of other fabulous images HERE

Dunderton Academicals RFC!

Wow its Sunday morning again already! These weeks are flying by too quickly. Today Im showing you Dunderton Academicals FC and Balls. I used the balls to change the image from a Football player to a Rugby Player.

I'm trying to get ahead and make some Fathers Day cards ready for 21st June. I made this one with my Dad in mind - Who played rugby well into his 50's. Now at 70 - its a more sedate affair of Bowls! I have many happy memories of days spent hanging around the rugby club watching Dad play whilst the Mum were in the club house cooking up Pie and mash. I've made this card in the team colours and Derek looks more like my Dad today rather than back when he was playing!

 If you would like to see the card recipe - pop over to my blog where even the marker pens used are listed.

Hope you enjoy your Sunday

Keep Fit Kenneth



Today I have a card with Keep Fit Kenneth, from Dr Digi's House of Stamps.  I actually have a brother by that name....hmmm.  With summer fast approaching, it's time to find out those weights and buff up a bit.  Kenneth wants to look his best for the summer reveal, and also hopes to fit into his summer clothes from last year.

X-Ray Raymond



Oh dearie me, Raymond has come a cropper, never one for taking things slowly, Raymond was on his space hopper, racing down the high street, when he accidently bounced onto a mattress, on display at the local bed shop, and catapulted himself straight into the display next door at the greengrocers. It was carnage aubergines, quince and squash went everywhere (Raymond lives in a posh area it has to be said). Never mind it looks like he has come away pretty unscathed.

You can find X Ray Raymond HERE along with lots of other fantastic digistamps. Hope you all have a good weekend

Mini Cooper

Sometimes its the small things that make us smile. Mini Coopers do that.  And nice and simple cards that just happen to fall together.  I'd like to think by magic, but it's probably more luck and good fortune!

3 Girls, 1 Mic.

Morning - my turn to show you another amazing image from Dr Digi - Today its 3 Girls, 1 Mic.

I had loads of fun adding all the glitter to these ladies as they had to shimmer and shine. I seem to have a bit of a thing for Purple at the mo but not sure why really. I think gold and purple go together well and is very opulent - which is only what these ladies deserve!

If you would like to see the full card recipe - pop by my blog here.
All for now - love to hear your comments.

Cars

Today I made some ATC-cards.
All of them with a car.
I think it is nice to do this in such a small size.




I thought these colours fit to the cars. 
We have had a green 2CV and I see the Mini Cooper often in red.

You find the cards HERE.
Like to know how I did the cards read my blog HERE.

Have a nice weekend.

Hello Leatherface!!


The first time I saw one of Dr Digi's Hello Horror collection, I was slightly taken aback, I am not a lover of the horror genre but then, despite being a cat lover, I am not a fan of a certain white kitty with a red bow in her fur. Merge the two together and they have a certain charm that I find very entertaining and not a little endearing; I have been racking my brain for a while now as to how to use them! My 50th looms larger every day, 2017 can not come slowly enough for me, and this card describes how I felt on my recent 48th!

You can find Hello Leatherface HERE, plus 5 others in the color digis section HERE, if you want all 6 you can get them with a £2 reduction.

Hope you all have a good weekend, I am helping with a barbecue on Sunday at a dog show, just need to make sure none of the participants run away with the sausages!

WALKIES


Daisy thinks she is taking the dog for a walk; our lovely lively dog has other ideas!   Poor Daisy is left huffing and puffing in his wake.

“All trees have bark.
All dogs bark.
Therefore, all dogs are trees.
The myth of barking up the wrong tree.”

Blunder Woman.

Dr Digi image called Blunder Woman. I think this would be a great Mothers day card or just one to cheer up and support a friend. (Who has a sense of Humour !!)



It makes me think of Bella Emburg in the Russ Abbott show that used to be on TV - am I showing my age?? To mention age - It was my Birthday yesterday - hence why this post is a little late as I didn't get chance to do it in advance. I was busy gossiping and catching up with my friends and eating and drinking with the family - What else do I need!
If you would like the full card recipe - take a look at my blog.

Right Im off the make a brew as I was up late watching Eurovision (My Guilty pleasure!! Please don't judge me!)
Take care all

Weekend Walter


You may have thought this card would be for a guy, but no no no!  In this case it is for the lady of the house.  Hubby dearest is bringing her a cup of tea in bed, and who knows what other surprises may be in store.  This fun image, titled Weekend Walter, can be found over at Dr Digi's House of Stamps.  I even know who will be the lucky recipient ....my brother's wife.  lol   I'm sure she will get quite the chuckle.
