Just so cute!

Hello all and I hope that your week is going well? After days of warm weather and sunshine (or warm weather and cloud lol!) - this evening it has just started to rain. I can almost hear all the plants in the garden cheering as they soak it up! Grumpy Poppy the cat seems to have taken it all as a personal insult though as she has had to come in from sitting on her cushion in the garden like the Queen of Sheba. I'm sure she would have preferred me to just stand with an umbrella over her until it stopped or until she felt SHE wanted to come in! So she's now sat sulking and glaring at the back door.

A very warm welcome to my new followers - and I hope you're prepared for all the waffle as well as the crafts! And thank you to everyone who has supported my new venture into the scary world of Facebook lol. I'm gradually getting the hang of what I'm supposed to do - I think. I'm not the most computer-literate person (my son just rolls his eyes in despair when I ask some questions), but it's also quite good fun to see what other people are doing and share crafting ideas. And as I make quite a few cards for friends and colleagues, a few people had convinced me that it would be good to see if anyone else wanted things made! Since having a blog I've enjoyed seeing what other people are doing, how trends change, and especially seeing how my own efforts have progressed (hopefully!).... Anyway, if you fancy taking a look at the Facebook page in it's infancy, please follow the link on the sidebar.

Phew! Apologies for all that waffle, and just sharing another of the baby cards that I had been making for last week's baby & toddler fair, using a sweet little Crafters Companion stamp of Beatrix Potter's Mrs Tittlemouse


The image has been coloured with copics and pencils

The backing papers are from LOTV and NitWit, with some added stitching, and the sentiment is from LOTV. I've used a Tonic border punch for the edges and the Memory Box precious hearts die. The ribbon and pearls are from stash.
Hope you like it! 
Back soon,
