Hey everyone!  So yip confession time this post is a tad late this month!  It's been a busy and trying time lately.  I may have mentioned in a previous post that my dear Mum passed away recently and to be honest it is something that I have struggled with on many levels.

Through this tough time however I have found strength in those who surround me.  I have accepted many a coffee date lately and have spent a number of hours chatting, sobbing and laughing - all of which I have been very grateful for.  So on this note, it has also become the center of my inspiration piece this week.

I present to you.....Coffee and Friends!

Here I have used a 'Simon Says Stamp' set Coffee and Tea.

Thanks for stopping by, don't forget to upload your entry this month to Let's Craft and Create!

    So sorry to hear about your mother, but glad that you are managing to find time for creativity and coffee - and especially for those conversations with friends. This is a lovely card full of warmth and love,

Southern Girls Challenge - Anything goes

Welcome back everyone!  This time of the year is when things really start to get busy for me - so an anything goes challenge is just perfect.  Busy times do often mean that my relaxing times are spent playing with my craft goodies. I have used a New Zealand Brand here of Rosies Studio - Indigo mist range. This is a range that I had in my stash - yes I'm going through one of those phases where I feel the need to use up more of my hidden stash rather than think of myself as a craft supply horder. So here we have 'Love u' This particular paper was a bight too pink for me - so I toned it down by applying a thin layer of white gesso over the top of some clear gesso so as not to destroy my paper. I have used left over scraps of varying lengths to build up my next layer and to add that directional layer. I'd love to see what you are working on so remember to join in the challenge fun!

Hi everyone! So I am a little bit excited to let you all know that I am a guest designer over at Clique Kits ! I was asked to pick from their kit range, a kit to use as my inspiration and I happened to notice a NZ brand Rosie's Studio.  So being a kiwi I opted for this one which sports the great Indigo Mist range, which is described as wintery florals, wood textures, and misty pinks, teals and blues - a modern yet rustic collection. #RosiesStudio #Indigomist #Cliquekits My lovely box arrived with a full set of Indigo Mist papers, Butterfly embellishments, gemstones, vellum die cuts, veneer embellishments, collectables, doilies and some designer buttons.  A great kit full of products that I could instantly see would be well suited to almost any style of scrapbooking, card making or general paper crafting! I have to apologise for the lack of process photo's as I had so many ideas for this range that I ended up swapping and changing my mind on things right the way through
