I am a working mum of three very untidy children. Although not sure if 18 still qualifies as a child? but then again from their actions its a yes! I really enjoy most crafts and tend to be enthusiastic but not always competent!!

Dilly's Doodling

Crafting from a garage in the Cotswolds...

Whiff Of Joy 17

Friday, February 6, 2009

How happy am I? - The answer is very :))) and its not because of the snow (love it) nor the fact I can work from home tomorrow. Its simply because I have made a card I am happy with. I don't think its perfect or anything like that its just I'm happy with it!!!!. I treated myself to some BG Bittersweet card and what a difference I love the fact the papers tone so well - I'm not great with colour so am really pleased!.

The Challenge over at http://wojmondaychallenge.blogspot.com/ is a sketch one ( I have tried to copy and paste the sketch in but can't get it to work- all help gratefully received if someone would let me know) and I have been able to use my recently purchased "Henry". I am really impressed by the quality of the Whiff of Joy stamps and they do stamp a lovely clear image and the service has been great too. I coloured using pro markers and cake case, dusky pink, ivory,blush& blossom, Candle ruby & ivory, Henry, Satin, dusky pink, blush and highlighted with ranger inkessential pen. I also used sparkles on the icing ..... bed cover, my jeans and socks!! yes sat on the bottle and testament to my bodily padding didn't feel it!


Its been a bit snowy in my part of the Cotswolds today and had to work from home and was hoping to sneak a tiny bit of crafting in but no such luck as we had crisis at work. Tomorrow is another day at home but its conference call hell ... I have 8 calls booked in and not much time in between. I can only hope I can find the mute button on my phone so I can sneak to the loo at some point during the day!!!!

I would love to make some new crafting friends I read on many blogs how people have found some good buddies and would really like to do the same - I'm just not sure how you do it!!

Have a safe day if you are travelling in the poor weather & fun snowballing & sledging if your not!
