Birthday Wishes

Hi there as we approach the end of May.  Winter is upon us although we have had a very mild autumn down here.  We normally have a wet autumn but its been quite dry until today.  The rain is set to continue with a drop in temperatures over the next few days.

Anyway I'm here today to share a Happy Birthday mouse from LOTV.  This is another of the new images and honestly this set of new releases are just so cute and adorable.  Perfect whether you like clean and simple or embellished.  This little cutie is coloured in pencil.  The sentiments come as part of the set which is a real bonus and I do like this font.

Pop back again soon

Cute Happiness

This little cutie oozes happiness.  It would be hard not to smile and feel warm fuzzies with this little bunny.  This is a new image from LOTV and available now.  The sentiments are part of the stamp sets also and this is such a lovely font.  I used a digital stamp but it is available in limited quantities its a rubber stamp.

He is coloured using pencil and I added some bright and cheerful yellow gingham to add to the sunshine coming from this little fellow.

Hope to see you again soon

Have a Lovely Day

I do wish you a lovely day.  This is a new image from LOTV.  Available as a rubber stamp for a limited time and as a digital image.  I coloured this little cutie in pencil.  First thought he was a bear then I realised he had a slightly different tail to a bear and is in fact a mouse.  Not sure what I was thinking but there you go.

I added some peachy orange to match the pot and to keep it bright and cheery with some of my favourite gingham paper.

There will be a few more new images over the next few days so do pop back.

May Digital Release from Kindacute by Patricia

It's May already and that means new digital stamp releases from Kindacute by Patricia.  First up is this gorgeous wee dragon holding a little bird.  This is not Kindacute but really cute!! I coloured it in pencil and went for purple and orange with accents of white.  For the background just some very simple cloud stencilling and a sentiment "You are truly amazing".  I do think that's what these two are saying to each other :-). Pop to the facebook group or the store for this and all the other new releases for May.

See you soon

New Challenge at Southern Girls

Its time for a new challenge at Southern Girls.  Its a favourite "Anything Goes".  We have lovely sponsors for the challenge so pop to the blog for all the details.

I'm sharing this cutie using dies from Frantic Stamper. There is only one baby in the set but being the mum of twins I had to put 2 into the bath tub.

Come join us with anything you like, we love to see all your creations.

Butter wouldn't melt...hmmmm

Come back soon

Fishing Seagull

Seagulls love fishing not always with a fishing rod though.  This is another of the new releases from Kindacute by Patricia.  He was really  quick and easy to colour.  I love the expression on his face, he looks a little disconcerted that he actually caught a little fish so I went with a "Get Well Soon" sentiment.  I'm sure the fish will make it through.  Coloured in pencil, with a simple card design pulling out the lime green of the seagulls hat.  There are other new releases so pop to the facebook group or the store to see them all.  I'll have another tomorrow so some back for a look at another lovely image.

Be back soon
