Liebster Blog Award....again

I am excited to be receiving another Liebster Award. It was received from a newbie blogger Heather. Thank-you so much! Please every-one check out her blog here!

Here's the to do list for any of the Liebster Blog Award recipients.
1. Thank your Liebster Blog Award presenter on your blog.
2. Link back to the blogger who presented you the award .
3. Copy and paste the award on your blog.
4. Present the Liebster Blog Award to 5 bloggers with less than 200 followers.
5. Let them know they have been chosen by leaving a comment on their blog.

Now for the tricky bit....selecting just 5 deserving bloggers when there are sooo many inspirational crafters out there! Also note that I have made a point of not selecting the same 5 blogs I picked last time although they still all do mean so much to me.

Here are the blogs that I would like to award the Liebster Award too:

Rachael from Studio Three - I love your inspiring colouring

Marcia from self titled blog Marcia Pringle - Your cards/work is beautiful and unique

Louise at Passion Creations - Your cards are stunning

Emma at Crafymummy2five - I am in awe of your amazing colouring

Tara from A day in the life of Osiris and Loki - I simply just love your work!!

Please check out these women's work and be inspired like I have.

If I awarded you and your blog the Liebster Award please copy and paste the award and direction to your blog. Thanks so much for stopping by.

Stylish Blogger Award

I have received the Stylish Blogger Award recently from two Susans - my BFF Susan from Stamp On Me and Susan (not my BFF...LOL although I have mistaken her for my BFF previously) from Cricut and Grasshopper... so thank you very, very much, I really appreciate that you both thought of me!

Ok on to the business side of things...

The rules for receiving this Award are, as follows, to thank the person (in this case persons) from whom you received the Award and then share 7 random things about yourself and then pass it on to 7 newly discovered bloggers...

So 7 completely random things about me:

1. My favourite colour is pink.
2. I love anything owls
3. I love chocolate but hey who doesn't!!
4. Addicted to stationery...I've tried to seek help but to no avail. Maybe this addiction is why I love paper craft sooo much. Actually I think this addiction extends to stamps, and maybe ribbons...and also....ooh I could go on but best I stop here!!
5. I've always been a bit of a Tom-boy and due to this my career path lead me to a very male-dominate field
6. I can be a little anal, excessive compulsive or what ever other words that can describe this sort of behaviour
7. My favourite artist is P!nk.

I nominate the following 7 bloggers for this award:

1. Cheryl from 'Cards by Cheryl' - You have made me appreciate the art of quilling - your work is beautiful!
2. Pattie from 'The Pampered Paper Patch' - Your cards are stunning! Thanks for the inspiration.
3. Regina from 'Hand to Paper'- It's amazing the ideas you have put to paper with our much loved cricut. I followed your work many years ago on the cricut website and sooo glad I have found you personal blog now to be inspired by.
4. Saundra from 'Luv Scrapping Together' - I didn't think what you make was even possible! Your designs and ideas are Fabulous (or Fantabulous) Thanks for inspiring me to use my machines more often than before.
5. Marlene from 'Scrappin Cookie' - Your work is stunning also and you too have inspired me to use my cricut more than before. Thanks for the inspiration.
6. Lisa from 'Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons' - Your designs are so bright and cheery. I love checking out what projects you have created.
7. Dangina from 'My Carden' - Your colouring is amazing. Congratulations on making the Anyone for Anya? DT.

Please check out all these wonderful Ladies' blogs and the two Susans' blogs as they are all well worth the look and I am sure that you will return time and time again to them for inspiration like I do!

I'm sooo excited - I received a blog Award

I have been soooo lucky this week to receive an award from my Fantastic BFF Suze; it's the "I got the Attitude Blog Award".

Now I have to tell you three things that make me - "ME"! Then I can pass this award onto three worthy bloggers of my choice.

I found this tricky but managed to get a list together.

1. I've always been a bit of a Tom-boy and due to this my career path lead me to a very male-dominate field
2. I can be a little anal, excessive compulsive or what ever other words that can describe this sort of behaviour
3. Addicted to stationery too...I've tried to seek help but to no avail. Maybe this addiction is why I love paper craft soo much. Actually I think this addiction extends to stamps, and maybe ribbons...and also....ooh I could go on but best I stop here!!
   

Phew! Now I can pass this award onto three very worthy winners who all make terrific cards and given me loads of inspiration....this is my way of saying THANK-YOU!! (Sorry Suze you were top of my list but I thought I couldn't give it back to you!)

http://mycraftyspot.blogspot.com- I meet Fi on the Cricut website and she has given me loads of ideas and inspiration in the forms of cards swapped through our Aussie Swap we have going on.

http://craftybirdsblog.blogspot.com- I also meet Cindy (Mama Bird) through the Cricut website. She has inspired me to branch out and try my hand in scrapbooking.

http://jackiemthomas.blogspot.com- Jackie I haven't meet but she has inspired me with her sensation colouring and card designs.
