AWOL

Hiya all,
Sorry I have been awol, I have lost my bug! :(
I have attempted to get it back by buying myself some new stamps which I am waiting for so hopefully will be back in the land of Blog then. I do have two calendars to do before Thursday though so shall pop back then.
I hope you are all keeping well xxx

Yay! I made the top 3..

Over at Die Cut Dreams challenge blog!

Just a quick post...

I am on the scrounge!

I have just been looking at the CC designs stamps, and missed out on the Winter kit! I didnt realise that CC designs done kits, and the stamps that I have seen are gorgeous! So, heres where you come in if you have got them!

If you can help a desparate me out, I can swap some images that I have (Magnolia, elzybells, squiggle, plus a few more - I can provide a link to my photobucket which has em all in!) or I can pay you, to stamp me a few out!

You would make me VERY VERY happy!

Email me if you can help - katie@sainty.co.uk

And another challenge card!

And this is another one I have made today! I do like these images - They are from Lily-Boo's bootique and you can find them here.



And a side view:



Challenges:
SophistiCat - Wings
Dare you to Digi Stamp - Sketch
Allsorts - A card for a child

Challenges!

I have been colouring in today, and thought I would have a go at some of the challenges that are running this week.

I am quite impressed with this one. Its not my normal style (I am normally more cute and girly) but I think this is quiet an adulty card! Although I think it may look better with the gold backing paper, with the red layered on the top of it but hey its done now!



And a close up:



Challenges:
Die Cut Dreams - Sketch
The Cuttlebug Spot - Fruit (Cherries!)

A quick update!

I have lost mybug again (I am blaming Facebook as I am addicted to Cafe World lol Saddo eh!) but hoping to get around to making a few more cards this weekend! I have managed to get most of my christmas shopping done, and went back to Weight Watchers on Tuesday and lost another 5 and a half lbs which I am pleased with!

I have just taken part in the Lili of the Valley blog hop, which you can find here! Their new stamps are gorgeous! I for one will be buying some when I get paid!

Back at the weekend with some cards (Hopefully!)

GRRRR a bit of a rant!

Sorry guys, I am using this as a bit of a rant!

I posted an item out on October 1st to someone from UKScrappers. Got proof of postage etc. Item STILL hasnt turned up. Was in a massive box so I dont know how it has gotten lost! Anway, I have asked the buyer to bare with me while I put a claim in with Royal Mail as from my understanding, she will have to sign a consent form to say she hasnt recieved the items. Last night, I get a Paypal invoice from her, requesting I send her the payment back. I can understand her point of view, but there has been a lot of cases on UKS where people have re-funded the items, and when the buyer is contacted by RM, they dont sign the consent so the seller wont get their refund.

Now, I wouldnt have minded so much if it was for like £5 or something, but it was actually for £20! Something I could do without right on top of the big C word! I have posted about it on Money Saving Expert and most people say I am being unreasonable and to refund her now!

What do I do?! :|

Started back at Weight Watchers last Weds..

And my results so far...

I am 1 and a half lbs lighter!

When doing diets, I never do good in the first week like most people do, its always my second week! I have been on the Wii Fit (Plus) which I love at the mo and it has said that I have lost 3 lbs since weigh in on Weds! Fingers crossed that this time works for me please! (And that I have the wii power to stick to it...).

Back tomo with some cards hopefully!

Green!

Had a yummy postie day today! I had delivered all my yummy goodies from the Pollycraft Blog Hop (5 Clear rubber stamps and 10 promarkers) and I had a lovely letter with 3 cross stitch charts from Jackolean of Craft Bubble! I wasnt expecting them, and it was a pleasure to come home to after the crappy day I have had at work!

I couldnt wait to have a play with my new goodies, and I came up with this card. I have never really used green apart from the frogs that I have done previously, and I thought this one was quite nice! It is lacking a sentiment, but as I dont know what I will be using it for, I decide to leave all my cards without sentiments (Unless its for an order or a christmas card!). That way I can print my own!

Colour Meduim - ProMarkers
