GORGEOUS ASH IS 21
Hi everyone!! I'm sure there is some veeeeeeeeeeeery sore heads out there this morning!!! Last night was Ashleigh's circus themed 21st. It was a fantastic night I went minus Gary who came down with a tummy bug, I just think he didn't want to go as a lion!!! That is me 1st left as the clown...amazing how many people recognise me. The next pic is me with Ash the great ringmaster, she designed and made her amazing outfit. Won't go through the others but a big thankyou to Kellie and Jayne for their amazing readings as fortune tellers with a pack of Jim Beam playing cards...I was rivetted!!! Oh! Can't leave Janice out who had us mesmerised with her miming skills that just got better as the night went on!!!
Kath & Lionel are so proud, you are such a gorgeous girl Ash, thanks for sharing your night!!!
Thought I better put in the card I made Ash, I thought it was very Ash, hope she liked it.











I apologise for the marks on some of the photos, I had a smear on my lens DOH!!!

CLEAN AND SIMPLE FTL#86
This is a challenge from the girls over at Clean and Simple, so easy just a 5 min card which you can see below. I am not loading my challenge as I haven't exactly followed the guidelines by putting patterned DSP where it is meant to be plain. Thought I'd pop it up anyway for you to have a little look.I used the new Rich Razzleberry cardstock and Cottage Wall DSP...in love with both!!! Look out for lots more to come.

JUST ADD INK #13

The girls over at JAI have come up with a nice earthy colour combo, as soon as I feasted my eyes on the colours I couldn't wait to play!!! You must take a look at the Design Team submissions, they are amazing.
Below is my creation...but I have a confession to make. There was not a scrap of Barely Banana in my stash so I had to use So Saffron. I hope this is OK girls.
I know I am yonkers behind everyone else but I got all my newbies yesterday so I had my 1st play with the birdie punch....I LOVE IT!!! Sadly no Big Shot yet but my birthday is soon, so my wonderful hubby may come good there!!! I have dropped enough not so subtle hints!!! Stay tuned for lots more new(old for everyone else) creations with new colours and stamps.
INGREDIENTS
STAMP SET : Fresh Cuts
CARDSTOCK : Choc Chip, kiwi Kiss, So Saffron, Whisper White
PUNCH : Two Step Bird Punch
INK : Choc Chip
MISC : Stampin Dimensionals
Thanks for popping in for a look and have a great day.

BLUEBERRIES & RASPBERRY TART FOR MEGES
I just had a wonderful morning with my gorgeous upline and friend Megan. It was a great catch up as we hadn't made our jaws sore for a few weeks and I missed it!!! Anyway we caught up at Casuarina for coffee and I had Blueberry pancakes which Megan kindly helped me finish...what a girl!!! Megan loves Raspberry Tart DSP and I thought I would make her a card for her birthday which is on Friday. You can pop into her blog using the link on my side bar and leave her lots of love and positive energy just cause we love her to bits!!!
Below is the card I made her and the two of us looking gorgeous!!!

A LITTLE SOMETHING FOR EASTER
We are going out to breakfast on Easter Sunday with some friends and their kids to a new cafe in Pottsville called White Jade (they do amazing food and coffees if you are in the area). I thought I would do them up some Easter choccies in the colours of their cafe to say Happy Easter. I don't own an Easter Stamp so a thankyou for breakfast will hit the spot I'm sure. We are pretty game going to breakfast with sugar fueled kids, if they aren't mental by then we certainly will be!!!
The little bag below is just made from 1/2 vertical A4 sheet and the Word Window punch at the top and you can decorate with whatever colours and papers that you like. Score each side of the centre to how tall you want your bag to create the base. Eazy Peazy!!!

CLEAN & SIMPLE FTL 84

It's challenge time again!!! This is the first time I have been involved with the Clean & Simple Challenges, they are great fun. They are exactly what they say, nothing over the top, but the result is some amazing cards from all the girls. Below I decided to use the Die Cut Blooms which I haven't used in ages so I hope you like my card. A simple one and the recipient is going to be a friend of Allie's.
