Hippee Girl

Would like to say hi to my new follower, thank you for taking the time to look at my blog.

I was expecting nothing but rain this weekend but have managed to get quite a bit of washing  out and dried.  My electricity bill arrived Friday and I was shocked at how much it was, admittedly we have had the heating on quite a bit and had to use the tumble dryer or else we would have no clothes to wear, but even so it was terribly high.   With my husband being made redundant some time in the next few months I will have to think of ways to cut down on bills, worse thing would be crafting items - silently screaming and stamping feet.

I am not sure how I found this site, but through looking at one thing and another, I ended up with this image called Hippee from Stitchy Bear Digital Stamps.  The site has some really lovely images.

For this card I used the following:

Image from Stitchy Bear
Promarkers
Papers from Making Memories Simply Fabulous Collection
Memory box die
Tonic butterfly punch
Sizzlet corner punch
Flowers from stash
Glitz glitter glue
Papermania pearls

Molly's Present

I was very pleased to see that I had been given an Honourable Mention from The Shabby Tea Room for my card.  Thank you very much.


I have decided to finally have a sort out of my craft items and use all the papers and stamps that have been bought or been free with magazines and use them.   I am just running out of space.  I have lots of odd paper that I am now determined to use up so apologies for not letting you all know what company they are from.

I had this stamp which came with a magazine about a year ago, it had this cute image along with a boy, cupcake and three sentiments, so decided it was time to actually use them. I used Glitz glitter glue on the butterflies but it is not very clear in the picture.

For this card I used the following:
Image and sentiment from Molly Blooms
Promarkers
Pink card and patterned card from stash
Memory Box Leaf die
Tonic Butterfly punch
X cut oblong die
Papermania pearls
Kars pink pearls
Glitz Glitter Glue on butterflies
