My Time To Craft/Charisma Cardz/Sketch & Stash/Colour Create Challenges...

Hi, Hope you are all having a fantastic Saturday...my work is done for the week and I am so looking forward to a few days off as always. We are going over to some friends tonight for a bbq, we haven't seen them in ages so really looking forward to a good catch up.
I spent last night crafting whilst watching Big Brother...I was giving the telly a bit of flack!! That blooming Sofia was totally doing my nut in...I tell you I am so glad she was voted out last night. I dread to think what I would have done to her if I was living in there....ggggrrrrrhhhhh!!
***************************
Anyway enough ranting and onto my cards...
The 1st one is for:-
1 - My Time To Craft #65 / Sketch below
2 - Charisma Cardz #23 / Something Yummy

I have used the NEW Cupcake Crazy kit from Funky Fairy's...the kit is soooo massive it will keep you creating for hours and hours.
Pop over to the shop of the blog of inspiration for more details.
********************************
My 2nd card is for:-
1 - Sketch & Stash #12 / Sketch below
2 - Colour Create Wk 19 / Blush Pink, Lilac and Mossy Green
I have used one of the soon to be released 'Twiddly-Wings' images from Pollycraft and again papers from the Cupcake Crazy kit by Funky Fairy's. Both of these are new to my stash together with the gorgeous prima flowers.
(I have made a bit of a boo boo - I forgot to add the ribbon/ric rak detail to the image!!)

A Little Treat & Our Sensible Car...

Look what the postie brought me today...I have been soooo good with my crafty spending lately that I thought it was about time I had a treat. I got these gorgeous Prima flowers and two Papermania kits...

And here's our sensible new car....we got it last week and although I was very sad to see the scooby go (even had a tear in my eye) I must admit that I am really liking this one.
We can't believe that a car can be so economical....lovely to drive too!!
I won't beat the boy racers off at the traffic lights anymore but hey gotta grow up sometime!!!

Good Morning,
Back to work for me today but I have had a lovely few days off...well apart from my washing line snapping yesterday and clothes ending up all over the garden. Bit of a nightmare getting them dry at the moment too cos my dryer is broken. Luckily we have it covered with insurance so they are coming to repair on Monday.
*************************************
Time for a new challenge over at the Digital Tuesday Challenge blog and this week the theme has been set by lovely Lora.
The theme is:- Make or decorate a box or bag.
I got a little carried away and ended up making 2 bags and a box!!
Our sponsor for this week is My Grafico....pop over and take a peek, amazing digi stamps available to suit all occasions.

The image is from Dustin Pike and the bags and box are a freebie from Funky Fairy....see them here on the inspiration blog.
Remember all you need to do to enter is use a digi image on your creation.
I look forward to seeing what you come up with, the DT has some amazing creations to inspire you.
