Owlies

I was over at Niella's and Bree's last night and seeing all the owls I remembered these and had to post 'em. I was at Te Puke craft market held at the town hall with a stall of my own and these tea cosy's were for sale at another table. I thought they were so cute and had to take a pic inlight of all the Owlie items around at the mo. I'll have to check the pic in zoom but I think they're $12 plus post if you're interested.

Gotta go, better get. My day off work today, heaps to do that's not getting done.

Scrapbooking Friends Fall Crop

Possibly my favourites.
A scrap lift challenge completed over the last 10 days at Scrapbooking Friends Fall Crop.
Deadline dates tomorrow and I've hardly done a thing!

Figures huh!
SF hold four seasonal Crops over the year with donated prizes, lots of games and loads and loads of fun!
There's a heap of layout challenges too but since I can't scrap right now I'm entering card challenges instead.

Use Scallops anywhere on your layout. I didn't have my nesties when I made this so the scallop circle is hand cut. Practically a lift from For Keeps Creative Paper. Issue 69 2008.
I LOVE these three papers. I can't imagine how old the beige and rosebuds pp are, a gift from Regina (thanku!!) a long time ago....saving it for that perfect photo that never took place. Dimensional Magic is used on the Basic Grey Giraffes.

I wish I could take better pics. I've given up taking photo's in different rooms to get the best light. These are done in my scrapspace infront of a window.

Card Lotto

These are for Patty aka Memory Collector.

Have you heard of Card Lotto?
Sign up and if your name's drawn you win 4 handmade cards from everyone else that signed.
Recently that equates to 40 cards!!
I used 7Gypsies to make these. Bazzil Cardstock, a HS chipboard heart (thanks Lara), bling brads, heart brads and patterned paper.

So are you getting sick of these cards yet? Think of it as my way of making up for being away so long...at least you know I did something :P

Arlenes: Christmas Card without red or green.
Queen & Co's felt and Heidi Swapps tiny flower jewels.....can you see them?
Used the Swiss Spot embossing folder on Basic Grey patterned paper.

Kims: use stickers and alter 'em, use on a Valentines card.
Lots of Kindy Glitz on the stickers...the only stickers I rckon I own.

Lois's Christmas Card Challenge, use a sketch.
Bazzil, Basic Grey Scraps, a Prima flower and a bling flower courtesy of one of SBO's monthly kits

Use at least two different punches on a card.
Lifted this straight out of Aussie Paper Crafts. Issue #61 2007. A freebie mag, in the back of another.

Bazzil, Kindy Glitzed 'petals' and the stamp is one of several from a Simple Stamps set; A Confession, sold at www.crafthouse.co.nz

World Card Day

Remember World Card Day? At The Crop Room we turned it into World Card Week with challenges and prizes. This chllng had to feature a butterfly anyway you liked.
Bazzil, Basic Grey, scallop circle cut and embossed with a nestie and the butterfly is a years old diecut.
