The Pink Elephant & WOYWW

Morning everyone. Hope we are all well. I have a house full of sick kids. My gosh I can't wait until they are all better. I really don't like cleaning up the poos and spews and it just keeps coming. Ahhhhhh....!!! It is doing my head in.

Anyway - thought I would do a What's on your workdesk Wednesday post. Not very exciting as always - I actually cleaned up my table somewhat yesterday so it was messy yesterday, maybe I should have done the photo then LOL. Here it is.

Thought I would make a card with the Oh Boy, Ian stamp I got from TGF for the Card for a Stamp Swap. He is so darling. Great to colour. I always struggle with boy cards but think I just need to more of them. The Pink Elephant are showcasing cards made with ribbon so thought I would whack one together as well.

Have a Hoppy Easter

Afternoon everyone. Wow what a mad week I have had this week. I must admit that I was blown away with the response for the Freebie on Spesch Stamps and so happy that you all liked her so much. The only problem was that my email got so full that some people couldn't email me. Thankfully most people got the stamp. If you didn't she is available to buy on my Etsy Store.

Anyway this card was made with the Egg stamp from Spesch Stamps for three challenges. The sketch was from The Pink Elepant and both PaperPlay challenges and Dare you to digi Stamp Friday Challenge have a theme of Easter so this is the perfect stamp.

The Pink Elephant #55

Morning. Hope we are all well. We have a few sickies in this house including me. I had the worst headache yesterday and just got worse and worse as the day went on. Unfortunately my little miss wouldn't stop crying yesterday afternoon and said her ear hurt so off to the Dr. Turns out she has an inner ear infection. So she is now on antibiotics. Hubby went to a footy game last night and messaged me to tell me he had a headache and a fever. Wonderful. I went to bed at about 9pm but couldn't get to sleep as my head hurt so much - I was still awake when hubby got home at 10.30pm and then he kept me awake with his fever shivering. Not a good night. Hoping to get a better nights sleep tonight.

Sorry about another waffle. I made this card for The Pink Elephant with this sketch. I love it's simplicity. I also made this for Just Magnolia with a 'Birthdays' challenge. I thought I would give my DT stamp from Magnolia Down Under another look in. She is excellent for birthdays as well as Christmas. Don't you just love her - well I do at least. LOL.
Don't forget Magnolia Down Under still has 10% off stamps - for Aussies only.
Have a good one.

The Pink Elephant #50

It is Saturday. Woot woot. The weekend. We are off to a fifth birthday BBQ at my Besties place. It is her DD's birthday today. HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHARLI LEE.

I made this card for The Pink Elephant with this great sketch. Now I must admit that this was a hard one for me - not the sketch but the DP and card. I wanted to use this DP from MME but didn't have any matching DP to go with it. So I just layered up the colours and the DP to give a little dimension. I think it turned out well. I got this fabulous Boho Chic from SCACD last week. It arrived in less than a week which I was impressed with and I love working with them. Thanks Susana.

Going Girly

Good morning everyone. Is it cold where you are....??? Well it is scorching hot here in Australia. Monday was 44 degrees celcius or 111 degrees farenheit. Pretty hot and yesterday morning the air conditioner got put on as soon as I was able to switch it on as it was in the high 20's over night. Stay warm to those of you in the cold and stay cool to all in Australia and the warmer climates.

Okay - on to my card. I have combined three challenges with this one. The first is using this wonderful sketch from Sketch Saturday. I had to change it a little as the flowers wouldn't fit above her head but it is the sketch. LOL. Second over at The Pink Elephant they have a challenge of 'Birthday' and I made this card for a good friends 30th so it fits with their challenge. And last but not least we have the challenge at Cupcake Crafts - Going Girly. Seeing I have so much pink on this card I think it fits. LOL. Okay I am off. Hopefully not to hot for us today.
