December blog candy winner

Hiya everyone, 

I'm hoping that you all had a fab Christmas and saw the New Year in without too much of a hangover! Lol

As much as I enjoyed myself I am looking forward to getting back to normal.  We've already took the tree down as it was quite big and we wouldn't have had enough room for everybody that we had round on New Years Eve so we didn't really have a choice.   

I have just finished some cards for Cardmaking and Papercraft magazine so I am getting back making cards again after several months off.  Coming up shortly are new challenges for both the Joanna Sheen and the House Mouse challenge so I need to make some cards for them.  
 
Anyhoo, the reason for my post is to announce the winner of my December candy which is:-


Congratulations Christine!  Please e-mail me on cheeky_monkey_24@hotmail.com to claim your prize!

I will post my January candy in the next few days!

Thanks for looking!

With love at Christmas

Hiya everyone,

After a few weeks off after having Nathan I am now back making samples for Joanna Sheen and the Joanna Sheen Challenge blog where there is a brand new challenge starting today which is:-



I have an easel card which I made a while ago which is also a gift box that has 4 little drawers in it which I popped chocolates in.  The gorgeous image is from the "Singing angels" House Mouse stamp set which you can get here.  I have coloured the image in with my promarkers and flexmarkers and I think the papers are from a DCWV christmas stack that I've had for ages.  
I was going to make something specially for the challenge but I have been snowed under trying to get things sorted for Tayla's 2nd birthday party and now for Christmas so I haven't really had a great deal of spare time.  I'm hoping that we'll get the Christmas tree and decorations up tomorrow so that it will be up by the time Tayla comes back from her Nanna's.  We've gone with white and silver for a winter wonderland look although I've only bought cheapy decorations with having Tayla and 3 mischievous cats!  I'll share piccies once they are all up though - hopefully it'll look ok!

I may or not post again before Christmas so if I don't, I wish you all the best for the remainder of the year and hope that you have a fab Christmas!

Hugs Paula. x

November Blog Candy Winner

Hiya everyone, 

As you know I have recently had little baby Nathan so I have had a few weeks off blogging and crafting so I haven't updated my blog in quite a while.  I will be getting back in craft room shortly so please bear with me.  I will be back joining in the challenges over at the Joanna Sheen challenge blog and the House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge blog shortly. 

I have missed not blogging and crafting but it has been nice not having the added pressure of DT deadlines with a newborn and Tayla who was 2 years old yesterday.


This is a piccie of the hubby and Tayla yesterday morning both sporting their Movember tache's before he finally shaved his off!  Was soooo pleased to see the back of it as it looked bloody awful! Lol

As we were now in december I thought I would give my neglected blog a festive makeover - I hope you like it!

Anyhoo,  I will now announce the winner of my November Candy which was this fab selection of spiders web lace.

Congratulations to:-


Please e-mail me on cheeky_monkey_24@hotmail.com with your address to claim your prize!

Thanks for looking!

November Blog candy

Hiya everyone, 

As you may have seen I have been a little absent for the last few weeks but I am now the proud mummy to a bouncing baby boy who I had only a few days ago.  I am still trying to catch up on a few bits and pieces but it will probably be a few weeks before I start crafting again as I want to enjoy spending the next few weeks with my family and looking forward to getting ready for Christmas.

Up for grabs this month is 1 metre of each of the above colours of spiders web netting which is soooooo gorgeous!  

All you need to do to be with a chance of winning is to become a follower of my poor neglected blog, add a piccie and link of my candy to your sidebar and add yourself to Mr Linky below!

My candy is open worldwide so it doesn't matter where you are!


Thanks for looking!

It's a boy!

Hiya everyone,

Did you miss me?  On tuesday evening I had Nathan Ryan Joshua who at 9lb 7oz was a few days early.   We were only discharged today due to a few complications but I am so glad to be home now.

Tayla seems thrilled at the idea of having a little brother and is already trying to comb his hair and share her juice cup with him.  

Below is a piccie of her meeting him for the first time on wednesday.  We bought a pressie for her that we said was from baby Nathan and she keeps telling everybody which is so sweet.

Below is the best piccie of Nathan so far although he does look uber serious!  He looks just like his daddy! :)
Luckily the hubby is off for the next 3 weeks which gives us some quality time together as a family. 

I'm really looking forward to getting back in my craft room as I really struggled to fit in there towards the end so it was easier not to bother.

Hugs Paula. x

PS.  It's late so I will draw a blog candy winner tomorrow!
