The Gardener Falls Into The Cucumbers and Two Birds!



I thought I would post something cute & funny today, so...
The two cute birds are on top of corks that you put in wine bottles. Mine sit on a tin by my Tea House! I think they are cute!
The gardener int he cucumbers is also on a cork, but she sits amongst my fruit & vegies from my garden!
Thanks for visiting:-)

My Little Tea House and Tea Pot





Here are some photo's of a littel Tea House that holds tea bags. It was a gift from a friend.
The Tea Pot is one of a small collection I have. This is my favourite one!
Thanks for visiting; have a great weekend!

What Do You Do...

...when the "Inspiration Fairy" has left you and you WANT to stamp but you're just not inspired by anything??
I've trawled the Internet & looked at heaps of fabulous blogs, all with wonderful cards etc, been to SCS & found heaps of great stuff...but I just can't quite get inspired to stamp:-(
I was thinking of starting a stamp group where like minded people could meet (at my place, I have plenty of room etc) & we could encourage & inspire eachother & learn new things! Would anyone be interested?! I feel that I need (want!) to stamp with other stampers rather than by myself. Leave me a comment below if you are interested or know where I can find the "Inspiration Fairy"...
Thanks!!
(PS I live in West Auckland)

Two Little Birds



These two birds were both made using my circle nesties. Very quick & very easy:-)
The heart is from an SU heart punch.
Thanks for visiting my blog; {{HUGS}} from me to you:-)

The Owl And The Pussycat...



Yes, well, the owl & the pussycat is right! The Santa owl is made using my SU punch, I had fun making this!
The spooky looking cat is "Romeo-Valentino" hiding under a piece of gauze like material. His eyes caught the flash & made him look scary!
Thanks for visiting, hope your weekend went well!

New Year's Cards!



These are a couple of new cards I made this year. The One with the little dog (Newton, from Hero Arts) was sooo easy to make, it took all of five minutes! I added a little Santa hat which I picked up in the Boxing Day sales (ready for NEXT Christmas!) The word stamp is from Stampin' Up from a set I picked up on sale.
I have a GREAT Stampin' Up demo lady, her name is Dianne & she always lets me know when things are on sale or if there is something she thinks I may like she always let's me know. So a big thank you to Dianne!
The owl card was made with a Stampin' Up punch & I hand drew the wiggly lines with the hearts. The hearts are punched out using the owl punch, I put those hearts on lot's of cards! Ok, that's me for the evening, time to go now! Thanks for visiting and don't forget to leave me a comment! I love to hear what you think of my art!
And if you have a blog please leave me your address so I can come & visit YOU!

New Stuff For A New Year!






Ok, here are some new cards & "frogs" I have made recently. The owl cards were made using a Stampin' Up punch - and so was the littel reindeer! He was also made with the same punch. His antlers are bit OTT but that's ok by me!
The frogs are about three inches in height & I made them using punched out circles & ovals. Easy to make - have a go! And don;t forget to show me what you've done, I'd love to see your spin on them:-)
