Pollycraft Challenge #94 And a Preview...

OMG... its ages since I posted!
Did you miss me??

Well, The Lovely Sheena set a FAB new challenge yesterday (yes I'm late) over on the challenge blog...
Embellishment Bingo...
now I have to admit, I hadn't got a clue what this was all about at first.... but its really straightforward!
You just pick a line from the 'bingo card' (Horizontal, vertical or diagonal)
and use those embellishments on your project...
simples....
Heres my card using a brand new Sonny image...( she'll be in the shop soon folks!)
I chose Lace, buttons, flowers..
The papers are MME and Pink Paisley...
'Smile' sentiment available in clear stamp set HERE
or as part of a Digi set HERE
Flowers from stash...

I followed the fab sketch from sketch and stash, so I'd like to enter my card there...

also I'd like to enter the following challenges...

Spoonfull of sugar are looking for things with wings...
Hope you can see the diddy butterflies?

Crafty Emmas Store want embellishments...
(waves at Emma!!)

And I'd also like to enter this at Make it Monday...

Thats all for today...
I'll be back soon!

I've had a facelift!....

... Not me personally (although its probably widely considered to be a good idea ;))
but my shop/blogs etc....

I know..I know ANOTHER change!! but you know what I'm like for fiddling!
The idea was to tie everything together again, and hopefully 'clean' things up...

So whatdya think??

please let me know if anything looks a bit squiffy....
oh, and be sure to grab the updated logos too....
..................................................................................

I'm feeling a bit brighter today, And my 'not so little' little man is perking up too....phew!

I have to say though, being laid up on the sofa has its 'up' side...
I managed to get some doodling done...

A new Special Edition 'Swings and slides' set....

These little guys are only available as a set... but you can grab them for just £3.50

I've been a bit hasty with these, as the DT have only just recieved them, so I don't have any samples to show you yet...
But hopefully there will be some gorgeousness soon!!

Well, thats about all for today...
see you soon!!

Pollycraft Challenge #92 Boyz to Men... Fundraising reminder and a Freebie!

Hi Everyone!!
WOW its been a while eh?
let me explain my absence....
Firstly we went away on our hols... 10 days in France, which was lovely!!!
weather was glorious, and it was a lovely break....
BUT...
since we've been home I've been feeling awful!... thought I was starting to feel better at the weekend, but then my Son came down with a virus, and has passed it on to me!....
So thats why I've not been around much, and things have been a bit quiet in the Pollycraft world...
Have had this card made for a few days, but havent felt up to photographing it....
This week the challenge over at the Pollycraft Challenge is:
'boyz to men'
Joanne is our host this week, and she wants to see our creations for the men/boys in our lives...
Here's mine...
I've gone with a monochrome feel, and used the Charity fundraising Digi
Please read Emmas FUNDRAISING PAGE for the story behind this Digi....

You can purchase 'Vintage Ronnie' here for £1.50
All proceeds (minus any paypal fees) will be donated to the Yorkshire Air Ambulance Charity.

While you are over in the store picking up your Charity Digi, you might want to add this gorgeous hunk to your shopping basket...


Maurice - Daddy 'Cool' available FREE until the 30th May...

hope you like him?

I'll hopefully be back soon with some newbies... prizes, and maybe some holiday pics...
