Spaced out .........

Good morning I really hope everyone is ok, I have a card to share with you today for my little fella who will be 3 soon and thought it was very fitting I found it in all my card stuff on the computer. This is Taylor he is Planet mad he lives and breathes Planets think he should spend a day with Brian Cox I said to Taylor you'll be going to School soon his reply was yes and I will teach them about the Planets.

He said "the Universe has exploded Nannie"

Now for his card I have only used Stickles and Diamond Glaze on it.

As you can see I have also made the Envelope box for it too, this is where I have been inspired:

Welcome Ella-Rose

Hello Everyone well it seems Mother Nature has calmed down a bit and it's about time too, those poor people who have been servilely flooded have been im my thoughts for the last few week and now hopefully it will be draining away.
Yes this is me doing a little blogging and yes it has been too long but as I explained I had big problems with Google and it is now sorted out.
So lets get on with the project I have produced it is a card for my friend at work who is now getting very excited as her new Grand Daughter is due in the next few weeks, the baby is being called Ella-Rose and this is her card:

For this card I have used
Tonic Butterfly Doiley
Papermania Happy Days 12x12 dp
White roses
Spellbinders tag
Ribbon from stash
Silver Peel-offs (dust blown away)
Stickles
Metal corners, Cameo, Mo Manning topper, 1mm Pearls all from Hobby House.

This is where I have been inspired:

We have been retreating .............. so to speak

Well my girls and I went to the Crafty Retreat a couple of Sundays ago with Taylor who really enjoyed it I thought I would do a new Plaque for the house. Long ago before we bought the house it was called May Cottage and thought it would be nice to rename it that, I went with an Idea of how I wanted it and did a layout on a black surface for inspiration.

I will get this finished when I have finished practicing painting flowers, these are what the others have produced:

Laura's

Taylor's planet plate

Grace's hedgehog

Ewan's hedgehog

So as you can see everyone seemed to have fun Ewan and Grace have had theirs glazed and cooked now I will show you what they look like when I pick them up.

So I am going to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year now just in case I can't get back as I now have to try and get the password to go on my main computer. Take care everyone

Well hello everyone I hope you are all having a good day what is happening with the sky there is just nothingness about it, this is really the onset of Autumn, thank you all for your lovely comments I really do like to hear from you all and that means quite a lot. Today I thought I would share my second wedding card it too is based on a design I saw in March of this year on a challenge blog called Scrapping Everyday Miracles I love this layout I have used it quite a lot and there is one more to go of this design but they are all done differently this is made for a friends wedding and she wanted it based on Midnight blue the lady I made it for was really pleased with the result and yes I have been playing with the melt pot again.
