Happy Friday

Its half term, which means lie ins whoooooop, lazy pj days whoooo, Although I do want to get the kids out and about in some fresh air, I love the Autumn, my fave time of the year, the colours are amazing, and its the official countdown to Christmas :)

I hope you all have a restful week if you are on half term

Today IS the day Leann will share these fab NEW NEW pens with you :) 10AM on Hochanda, I'm all set with a cuppa and record button, might even crack open a packet of biccys

This is another scene from Make it Crafty, this image was the second image I coloured up with these markers and I was blown away how easy the blend on them is.

This image is from Mo Manning, how cute is he! I used more of the vintage tones in this one

This one is another from Delicious Doodles, its one of my fave Christmas images ever, I adore it!

I really hope you have a GREAT Friday

Until next time

Tomorrow, Tomorrow...

Is only a heartbeat away...........

I am too excited, I mean REALLY!

Did someone say NEW PENS...................

AT 10AM TOMORROW with Leann on Hochanda

Oh Yes indeedy!

3 days in a row, I feel like I have all my ducks lined up lol! Hope you are all well :)

Leann will launch the fantastic NEW Spectrum Noir Illustrator pens over on Hochanda, and there is a discount if you are a Freedom member, and and and........ you wait till you see this babies in action, I mean seriously they are so cool!

The are dual ended, 1 end a fine nib for all your detailed work, the other a glorious brush nib for just about everything else! I'm a bit of a geek, I like the feel of these pens I mean the casing lol, so smooth, and I love the colour. Talking of which, the colours! OMG - Wait till you see them, there are some absolute corkers! the vintage tones are my fave :) 

Here are a few samples from me :)

I have used the brush nib only to colour these - Happy Days

This image is from Delicious Doodles. I believe the sentiment is from Whimsie Doodles, although not 100% sure. I love how easy it was to create the sky.

This image is from A day for daisies, and I wanted to add a blue tone to her hair, I love using greys to shadow my pinks too

This scene is from Make it Crafty, I adore the scenes, but I'm always to anxious to colour them, but I just had to with these pens, I was trying to create a sunrise.

Honestly tune in to the shows, you will learn heaps :)

Until next time

Hello Little Angel...

Well GOOD Morning!

2 days in a row!!!

Hump day, I love Wednesdays, My Ella is at club so I get an extra hour at the end of the school day, honestly that extra hour is like golddust, it really means I can get a solid days work in! 

And I do have lots to be doing as usual lol

Today I wanted to share a couple of makes from the gorgeous Little Angels Range

This collection is seriously seriously CUUUUUUUUTE!

So I went with Pink for a Girl

I adore that Baby Sentiment die, so so elegant, the paper pad in this collection is so cute. I love the tone of the pink, not to pale and not to Barbie, just right!

and Neutral for a Boy

Pretty much the same design as above but different colours and the Elephant die instead of the Giraffe, how cute are they?!
