Read all about it!!

Hi everyone,

Sorry I've been missing for a few days, been to the Lakes to visit my Mum, glad to be back though, there's nothing like your own home.....the only problem is we forgot to set the timer on the heating, so its absolutley FREEZING at the moment.

So I'm braving the cold to come and tell you my fabulous news.......Janet at pink gem designs has very kindly chosen me to be part of her wonderful design team. The two new members are...lil' ole me and the gorgeously talented Bev and we will be joining Janet and Katy in this exciting adventure. I am absolutely thrilled.....well who wouldn't be.....have you seen those stamps....soooo cute, thankyou so much Janet, looking forward to 2009.

Thanks for stopping by, have a lovely evening

Sketch Saturday

Morning everyone,

Jo over at Sketch Saturday has an awesome sketch on her challenge blog this week and is also looking for DT members, so I thought I would give it a try.

You had to make 2 projects using the same sketch, one Christmas and one anything you like, so here are my two cards

Birthday card

• Image: Sweet Ebony from Sugar Nellie
• Medium: Promarkers
• Paper: MME
• Flowers, brads and ribbons from stash

Christmas card

• Image: hAngler
• Medium: Promarkers
• Paper: K & Co
• Sentiments: Royal blush bubble stickers
• Flowers, brads, ribbon and snowflake buttons from stash

You will notice that I have used Promarkers! yes I finally was able to buy some, only a few :( and I absolutely love them, they are so easy to use, quite a change from 'painting' everything with my Marvy pens. I haven't been able to do the shading quite as well due to the lack of pens, but I think I did ok for a first attempt. It's not long till my birthday.....I know what I'm asking for!! Thanks to Fran for the help and advice and the wicked tutorial.

Anyway, enough waffle, thanks for stopping by, have a super day
