A Girl’s Best Friend :)

  

Hi there sweet peeps and hope that you are all OK :)

Over at the Simon Says Stamp Challenge today we’ve gone very verrry posh and it’s all about

Diamond Jubilee, Crowns & Gems

As always, the lovely Heidi is giving one lucky winner a fabulous ….

… which they get to spend in he store ….

… right here :)

So …

   

.. this is what I did.

The  image is Sweet Princess Tilda and i coloured her with these Copics -

Skin – E000, E00, E11, E21, R00, R20

Hair – E42, E50, E81

The rest – RV0000, RV000, RV01, RV95, Y21, Y28, YG0000, YG000, YG03, YG23

I also added some polychromos pencil detail as well

Don’t you think that these papers are just heavenly?

They are from First Edition and this set is called Bird Song – gorgeous!!

A trio of dies here peeps – just for a change!! I used a Tilda Lace Die, Magnolia Heart Tag and my old faithful Magnolia leaf and swirl die

Then I made a rolled rose to sit on top of the tag.

What would I do without SAFMAT Self-Adhesive Printing Film.

I am so bad at stamping directly onto an image panel so this is just the job.

This pretty crown is from this set …

… which is by  Blue Moon and clicking the pic will take you straight to the right place on the website.

I love these soft pastel colours, I really do, and pink and lime is one of my fave combis.

Well I went to see my new Granddaughter last night – and not forgetting my sweet and precious Kyla as well – and I changed her for the first time. Talk about scary and all fingers and thumbs!! You wouldn’t have thought that I had had 2 kids of my own, not to mention  Kyla. I was ever so slightly terrified I can tell you (Richard is still a bit scared of holding her, bless him!!)  Anyway what would have taken me 5 minutes max  in the past, took nearly 10 and I have to say it was as if she knew cos she never made a murmur (which may have been cos the poor kid was too scared even to squeak to be honest!!! ) And her nappy was a disaster – it sort of ended up by her knees.  6 years out of practice is what I am!!!!

Ohhh what an amateur!!! 

Anyway we managed it eventually and I felt such a sense of achievement that it was quite pathetic really. We are having them both to stay over on Friday night so that Emma and Tim can have 8 hours of undisturbed sleep (and I get to have lots of cuddles, hahahaaaa!!) . So I better shape meself and quick otherwise she won’t want to come here again lol!!!

Right I better go and finish off. I’ll see you tomorrow with some more cardage but till then, have a fab day and huggiest of hugs to all xxx
