Mulberry Wood "Friend"

Morning Friend bloggers.

Hope you enjoyed your weekend. Today I have a card which I made for Russ's Birthday. The image is by Crafter's Companion and is part of the Mulberry Wood range called "Friend". Quite appropriate as Russ is my best friend.  The stamp comes with its own friend sentiment but I computer generated the sentiment on the card. 


The papers are from Nitwit Collections. I have used Kraft card for the first time and I am very impressed with the results. I have used Copic Markers (the greys) and Pro Markers (for the rest).


The Spellbinders die is Marvellous Squares.  I am so pleased I managed to track these down from the NEC.
The flowery border is by Memory Box which I also purchased from the NEC. 


The ribbon is Silky Crush Ribbon from The Pretty Little Ribbon Shop. 
The gems are from my own stash.


Enjoy the rest of your week. Happy Crafting Bloggers.

I have been a very naughty girl!!!

Good evening blogger freinds.
Hope you are all well and having a lovely weekend. 
As the title says I have been very naughty, but gosh it has been so enjoyable. I am talking about a wonderful day at the NEC. I went really to get stocked up on essential craft items such as paper and tape but as you will see I got carried away.  It as was even more wonderful getting carried away as Russ gave me his debit card!!!


As soon as I saw the Spellbinders Marvellous Squares I had to have them but just for the hell of it I got the Marvellous Circles as well. I also sneaked another 2 sets of spellbinders into the basket.
You can't really see the Tim Holtz Distress Markers, who put them in the photo!!!
And really, you just can't go to a craft fair without buying Memory Box dies can you.  My last naughty buy is the Crafters Companion Stamps which are so adorable.

Another really good find was the hanging display which I thought would be fab for my dies. Such clever storage.


I got to meet the lovely Laura Bradley today from Songbird Challenges. Laura very kindly invited me to be on her challenge team a while ago and it is a real honour. It was lovely to meet her in person. Her personal blog you can find here.
I so wish I wasn't at work tomorrow cos I am dying to play with my crafty stash. I am sure you will see the results of my purchases very soon.
I will be back tomorrow with my DT card for Dream Valley Challenges.

Hope you are having a good  crafty week. Is anyone as excited as I am to be going to the NEC on Saturday. I am like a kid in a sweet shop. I must be very good though and only buy the essential bits like card and tape. Who am I kidding!!!
I have just had 2 days of marathon card making to make sure I get my DT cards done so that I can relax a bit the week before we go on holiday.  Today's card is one I made last week for a colleague.


I have used LOTV's Patchwork Daisy. I love this image and it suits so many occasions. The papers are from Nitwit collections Life's little Lemons.


The image has been coloured using Copic Markers for the Teddy and Flexi Markers for the flower.
The spellbinders die is A2 Fancy Ribbon Threader.


The ribbon die I love and is from Memory Box. The Sentiments has been computer generated.
