Trick or Treat

Hi I have been on the  DT at Delicious Doodles Challenge since it's creation 3 years ago. I love working with the great spectrum of cute to dark images that Teri doodles. I have to say my   favourite ones are the Emo images, Mermaids and Fairies. I decided to play with some of Teri's more darker images this weekend to create some Treats for Halloween.








I made some unique note pads to jot down information whilst you are on the phone and such like.


I am looking forward to the challenges starting again on September 7th and hope you will play along with us xxx

Trying something new... xxx

Hi hope you are all keeping well. Did you enjoy the ceremony last night. It was a fantastic fun party. I could just see the fireworks from my bedroom window. Highlight for me Gary Barlow singing so brilliantly after his recent tragedy amazing. I am just sharing a card I made with you. I wanted to try a new technique and this is the first time I have done this so please there are some mistakes and it needs to be worked on.

I hope you can pop over to the new challenge page. The  new challenge is starting on August 30th so we would love you to follow us so you don't miss anything. There is also CANDY available to be won.

The new technique is to use a very light ink like Memento Desert sand to print your image so it gives the illusion of no lines. I did this directly to card too. I will need practise for sure but I am happy to have finally given it a go.

Stamp - Sweet Elin frog on flower (Nellie Snellen) and Studio G Alphabet stamps
Buttons - Back to Basics mine buttons

New Stash from Natalie's and Amy's shop...

Hello I hope you are all enjoying your day. I have been doing a mahoosive clear out of stuff as my craft storage needed to be tended too. I needed to relax afterwards so I made this little Thank You card using some gorgeous stash that arrived today from Natalie and Amy's Shop.

I used First Edition Family Ties papers and Papermania Capsule Chelsea Green papers to create a background on my card. I used some punches from my craftroom to create the flowers and added gems. The ribbon is available in the shop HERE!. I used some glossy accents which you can buy HERE! on the watering can to give it a bit of dimension. Finally I added a sentiment to the image using these wonderful alphabet stamps from Dovecrafts. I have to say at 99p they are a must have.

Sneak Peek of Quiet Contemplation

Hi hope you have all had a great weekend. I got to do lots of crafty things after my H*******K so I am sharing with you a canvas I made for myself for my bedroom. This gives me the opportunity to share a new release from Delicious Doodles called "Quiet Contemplation". She is due for release Wednesday in the SHOP. I love her so calming and elegant.  I am going to make some miniature ones to accompany her. I dream of a grey and pink bedroom so this will inspire me to design my room.

I opened the image up in my Serif craftartist on a custom page 20cm by 20cm however the lines from the umbrella did not reach across the page so I extended them. I then printed the image out and coloured using just cosmic shimmers paints. I painted the canvas sides and back with an acrylic black paint. I modge podged the image to the canvas. I then added a few twigs I created using a Martha Stewart punch. The blossom on the twigs is the flower in her hair which I cut away from the image digitally and resized.

Challenges entered
Simon Says Stamp Challenge - Anything goes
Come and get it Challenge - Anything but a Card
Stampalot Challenge - Whats Your Crafty Passion? I love using digital techniques with craft techniques. I have made this canvas using a digital image which I altered slightly and I have painted with cosmic shimmers and Acrylics and added a punch.

No longer a Saturated Canary virgin xxx

Hi I hope you are all well. I am busy as a bee with one thing and another. The holidays are soon so should be able to blog more. I had a bit of time this afternoon to make a little Name canvas for my Bradie. She loves my Arc (Art) and tells everyone I am an Artist. I found out she has Dyslexia as well as her DCD this week. Her Phonological awareness is not very good and her short-term and Working Memory are poor so her IEP is going to be radically reviewed in September.
I have never ever coloured a Saturated Canary image I have admired them for ages. So this is the first go for me. I used Butterfly Princess I coloured with Spectrum Noirs and glitter pens for the bling. I used Prima papers . I modge podged them onto the canvas. I then coloured the edges with a Spectrum Noir. I added lots of gorgeous Embellies to finish it off xxx

Summer Holidays....!!!

Hello we are on our Summer Holidays from this week over at Delicious Doodles. So our theme this week is Summer Holidays. I managed to get out last night to Greenwich with a couple of good friends. We went to Nandos my first ever time. We sat on the terrace over looking the Cutty Sark, Canary Wharf and The Shard. I must say I was a bit disappointed with the laser show it was not visible from a distance. I could of stayed home and watched it from my balcony....!!! I hope everyone is safe in this rain over the weekend.

I have had another busy week. My Dad is poorly his lungs are deterioating with age and he has had some problems breathing so I worry as he is in Cornwall. I am off to Occupational Therapy with my daughter to see how her Theutaputic Listening is going. I also had a job interview for a role as a SEN and Families Adminstrator. I did not get the role but they offered me  a maternity cover in January. I have applied for some other school admin roles too so  hope that they are successful xxx

I have used the gorgeous Fern the Forest Fairy from Delicious Doodles for this challenge. I coloured her with Spectrum Noirs lights set (love this set). The DP's are from a Prima set called Almanac. I made my flowers with these DP's and added some pretty rosebuds.

Sneaky Peak of Thorne

Hi Everyone hope you had some sunshine this weekend. We did here intermittently however I have been working on some sewing projects and I managed to make this card with this STUNNER which will be released at Delicious Doodles this week. She is called Thorne. I love her tattoo and her expression.
I coloured the image with my Spectrum Noir lights boxset. I love the colour pallette in this box. I then used the spectrums to create a moody background. I added two DP's from my DCWV papers. I added a  sentiment and then cut out the flowers from her hair to add as an embellishment. I added some gems to finish. I love this card and I am giving it to a really good friend for her birthday.

3,2,1 Challenge at Delicious Doodles.

Hi there, hope it is not too wet and windy where you are today. Max has had chickenpox this week and Harry has a groin strain. Georgina had a fab report (Extremely proud mummy). Little Bradie has dyslexia as well as DCD I had that diagnosed last week. This week she is going to have an auditory processing therapy introduced to her by an American Shelia Frick. It retrains the ear to listen so I hope this will improve her sensory listening. So as you can see it has been a busy week. I have been to a job fair and doing my part-time job too.

It is time for another challenge over at Delcious Doodles Challenge. This week we have a 3,2,1 challenge for you. I liked this one as we were allowed to choose what our 3,2,1 is.

I decided to use 3 Delicious Doodle images ( Butterfly and Butterflies) I used 2 DCWV design papers and 1 ribbon. I coloured in the images with Spectrum Noirs which I am now enjoying using having got used to them. They are a cheaper alternative to some alcohol pens. I decoupaged them up and popped two of them onto a Spellbinders die and one onto the ribbon.  I then added some text banners that I made and a stamped corner embellishment.

As always Teri has some fab prizes from her store for you to win so please come and join in the fun xxx

Back from a Wet but fun Wales

Hello everyone I am a bit late posting my DT card for the wonderful Delicious Doodles Challenge. I have just returned from our church holiday in Mid Wales. It was very wet but much fun. It is a beautiful place and it was so nice to be in the middle of nowhere instead of the city. I am glad to have come home to my bed though.


Our challenge this week is called "One for the Fella's" it can be a Fathers Day card or a card for a special fella you can choose. The DT have done some fab cards using Teri's images. I choose to do a card using the great image Vintage Spitfire from the Delicious Doodles store. I have made the card inspired by the fantastic jubilee celebrations and the flyover that comes at the end of all these Royal celebrations. We got to see the river pageant before we went away and that was so fantastic even if it was pouring down x

I used my own digital stamp from Gr8 Crafts 4 U called Lil Larry Jubilee. I coloured in with alcohol pens. I then used a DP's from the Rule Brittania digital kit to create the background. I coloured in the Vintage Spitfire with alcohol pens too.
Please hop on over to the Challenge and join in all the fun xxx

Diamonds Are Forever

Hello I am just a bit late posting this today. I have been a work and then volounteering for an old peoples group. I am excited to show you this DT piece for the Delicious Doodles Challenge. This week in honour of the Jubilee we have a theme called "Diamonds Are Forever" so get your bling on!

This week I decided to create a couple of Smash pages using the gorgeous Vintage Spitfire from Teri's   SHOP .  We took the kids to see the HMS OCEAN which is the navy ship that will act as a military base over the Olympics. This is a little collage of how the day went. I thought the Vintage spitfire was perfect for these pages. I used my own Digital Craft Kit called Rule Brittania for the backing papers and the sentiments. This week my digital stamp company Gr8 Crafts 4 U is sponsoring the challenge.



I used a smash ticket to journal about the day. Finally I added some bling swirls.

Felt Dragon

Hello I have been locked in my room creating this dragon for my 4 year old son for the last two days. I created the pattern from some inspiration I found online and some other creatures I had created. It has been a learning curve but all for the right reasons. I has fun making it and learned lots of techniques whilst in the process.

I used some orange and red felt and cut out all the appropriate bits. I then stitched together the relevant pieces using blanket stitch. I added some stuffing and I added some stitched detail to the face.
I hope you like him as much as I do. I went for cute over ferocious. More Pete's Dragon (a favourite film of mine).
I would love to know what you think and please look out for more of my creations using felt I am really inspired to use  my sewing needle now xxx

Lil Larry and Lil Lilly Jubilee

Hi there I am just sharing this creation I made today with you all. This card is made using the newest release from Gr8 Crafts 4 U called Lil Larry and Lil Lilly Jubilee.
I made the card by using my graphics program to create the image. I flipped Lil Lilly so she is facing the other way. I created a crowd in the background and used a circle to frame. I thought it resembles a scene from the Olympic or Jubilee celebrations.

I coloured in with promarkers and flexmarkers. The card is glossy. I added some bunting and backed onto black card.

Freebie for Twit Twoo!!!

Good Morning I hope you are all having a great Monday!!! I am just getting prepared to go to the school to discuss a new approach to my daughters learning. She has DCD (Developmental Co-ordination Disorder) and Sensory Intergration problems. I had confirmation last week that they will be carrying out a Literacy assessment by a specialist in dyslexia. Today I am meeting with the Educational Psychologist and her teachers.

Enough about me here are some sentiments for you. They are quite large if you just print out the page so when I printed it out I used them as two A5 sheets to get them to a size appropriate for a 6 by 6 square card.

I have made this card using the sentiment "Have a Hoot" and Twit Twoo Orla from my latest digital stamp release at Gr8 Crafts 4 U. I created the DP using Serif Software and then coloured Twit Twoo Orla in with promarkers and spectrum noirs. I then decoupaged the eyes and the wings and the heart on her head. I coloured in the sentiment with my alcohol pens to match my image.


I am  entering the following challenges

Craft Your Days Away - All Creatures Great and Small
Crafty mess Challenge - Pink and cute (Anything Goes)
CES Challenge - Anything Goes Last ever challenge (Good Luck for the future)

Please grab these freebies to use on your Owl Projects. I have some Owl canvases to finish that I will be sharing shortly with you. I hope to do a picture tutorial about how I make my canvas art, this week too.

Twit Twoo Orla and Oliver

Hello I am just stopping by with news of a new release over at Gr8 Crafts 4 U. This was inspired by my daughter who is learning about "The Owl Babies" at school. Her friends do not believe that I am an Artist so I have made this bookmark for her to take into class to show them that I designed the owl and coloured it in with Prismacolour pencils, spectrum noirs and promarkers.

These two cuties are available to buy at Gr8 Crafts 4 U.  They are called Twit Twoo Orla and Twit Twoo Oliver. If you keep looking I am going to offer some Owl sentiments as a freebie this week too. You can see one of these on the book mark. I added the Twit Twoo to Orla she comes with no sentiment on her.



I am entering the following challenges with this bookmark.

One Stitch at A Time Challenge - Use your Favourites I used my Graphics programme which I really could not live without to create this bookmark and my alcohol pens

Sneaky Peak of "Fae" from Delicious Doodles

Hello I hope you are all getting some sunshine where you are. We have it on and off here in London and it is still cold when it disappears behind a cloud.

I made this canvas using a STUNNING image that will be released at Delicious Doodles this week. She is a Fairy called "Fae" and I think she is so pretty. I decided to make a canvas so I printed the image and then used the Modge Podge Technique to get the image to transfer to canvas. This time though I did not colour the image first. I also did not rub the paper away completely so I could use my Promarkers and Flexmarkers to colour. I also did not size my image correctly so I had to use some artistic license and I had to extend the image over the canvas. I added some crystal glitter and some acrylic varnish to protect the image. The canvas has been delegated to youngest daughter already.

Keep an eye on the store for her release she is pure joy to colour and makes a stunning focal point to any creation.

Challenges I am entering are

So Artful Challenge - Fairies or Butterlys with Yellow ,orange and Turquoise
Glitter Geeks - Wings and Things
Inspire me Fridays - Anything Goes

Try Something New

Hello the sun is shining yay!!!! I am here to share a canvas I have made for the Delicious Doodles Challenge. This week we have a bit of a scary challenge. It was to try something that we have not done before. We allow less than perfect entries (that includes my DT piece). I chose to do a canvas using a Mixed Media Technique.

I used Friends Forever from the Delicious Doodles Store. I love this image so so much. I coloured the image with promarkers and flexmarkers. I prepared the canvas by adding a layer of design papers. I then painted over with two different colours of acrylic paint. Next I prepared my image by adding a nice layer of Modge Podge to the coloured side of the image. I put it onto the canvas when the paint was completely dry. I then left it overnight to dry. I dabbed my fingers into water and rubbed the paper away from the image this takes a  little while but you get a lovely transfer once you have finished. I added a handmade beaded embellishement and some leaves.

I loved this technique and I will be using it lots in the future. I hope you have fun experimenting.

Say A Little Prayer

Hello I hope your week is not too wet and windy as it is here in London!!! I am just sharing a project I was assigned by a friend from church. She asked if I could make a prayer box for one of our church community projects. So I kindly obliged and here it is... xxx


I used a box that once contained trainers. I decided to use some Basic Grey papers which I used modge podge to stick on and then I painted around and over the papers with a bright orange acrylic paint. Next I got some verses from Bible Gateway about Prayer flipped them into reverse so I could make a transfer and then printed them  out. I cut them to size and then added some modge podge. I stuck to my box and let dry. I then dipped my thumb into water and rubbed over the top of the paper and gradually rubbed it away until it  left the text.

I made some paper flowers using My Craft Studio Paper Flower expert. I added them to the box in little clusters.

I am entering the following challenges with my Prayer Box

So close to my heart ....!!!

My beautiful daughter Bradie suffers with a hidden specific learning disorder called Developmental co-ordination Disorder (Dyspraxia). It is one of the SLD that not much is known about by the general public. I have been having a tough time this week with some issues surrounding the disorder so I decided to SMASH a page on it as some cathartic therapy xxx

I used a gorgeous DP from My Paper Stash quintessential garden. I then cut out some pictures and phrases from magazines that reflect this SLD. I added a frame in green card. I then coloured in a Whiff of Joy stamp from my stash which is the close to my heart bit. I added some journalling tags made using correction fluid and pen and some pearls.

Smashed!!!!

I have been following a new craze for a little while and I wanted to start  doing it myself and this is my first attempt at Smash. I brought an art journal rather than the smash book as I will get more economy from it.

I basically took an MME frame and two embellishments and glued to the page. I then drew My Life in bubble letters. I zentangled inside the frame. I added some faux sentiment tags that I drew with a fineliner and a promarker pen. I then added lots of texts I then used one of Teri's Delicious Doodle images Black Pearl.

I am entering the Macabre Monday challenge which is to CASE a Minion. I cased my boss at Delcious Doodles Teri . I used black and purple as she did for her card and the beautiful Black Pearl image.
