My style has definitely changed over the years, I think CAS is harder than it looks but I love making clean'ish' modern cards and I always use dies</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hello everyone...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've been out and about again visiting friends, this time a trip to Spalding to see lovely Lou and Fleur</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Lou and I spent a day in the woods with our cameras, the weather was perfect and we managed to see some deer (quite a few in fact) which was amazing</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you haven't seen Lou's fantastic pictures then do have a look on her Facebook page. I was really into photography about 15 years ago but it was side lined when I started papercrafting seriously. I have a very expensive camera that I have no idea how to use - it only comes out to take pictures of cards and Manny!</div>

The latest challenge at <a href="http://asyoulikeitchallenge.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">AYLI</a> is to share a project either using Santa or not, and don't forget to say why. I love penguins, snowmen and cute winter animals so rarely use Santa on my cards...</div>

These are some of the new snowmen from LOTV. I actually did this when my printer was playing up and would only print green. The others went in the bin but I coloured this and I think it turned out ok. The lights are done with Nuvo drops and I used Frantage for the snow</div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "quot";"><span style="font-size: small;">Hello everyone, thanks for stopping by</span></span></div>
<div style="color: #333333; font-family: &quot;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "quot";"><span style="font-size: small;"></span><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: #333333; font-family: &quot;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "quot";"><span style="font-size: small;">I've had a busy couple of weeks...</span></span></div>
<div style="color: #333333; font-family: &quot;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "quot";"><span style="font-size: small;">I went to visit my lovely friends Mary and Andrea in Newcastle for some crafty time and a catch up, always great to see them</span></span></div>
<div style="color: #333333; font-family: &quot;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "quot";"><span style="font-size: small;">Then I'd just got back and Jess asked me if I wanted to go up to Carlisle and Hamilton with her to take some horses to the races. It was a quick turnaround but a benefit of being retired that I can go without notice, so I was going back up the A1 before I knew it! What a lovely run though when you turn off the A1 at Scotch Corner going to Carlisle, I haven't been on that road since I was a kid and we used to go camping in Scotland</span></span></div>
<div style="color: #333333; font-family: &quot;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "quot";"><span style="font-size: small;"></span><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: #333333; font-family: &quot;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "quot";"><span style="font-size: small;">I haven't had much chance to play with the LOTV Christmas images because my printer died. I got a new one but only just managed to find the time to set it up and install it so got a quick card made with the new Gnome Simply Prints and Hand Drawn Sentiments...</span></span></div>

Good afternoon crafty friends, I'm late with my post for the <a href="http://asyoulikeitchallenge.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">AYLI</a> challenge as I've been away but there's still time to enter and it's a lovely theme</div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hello everyone, what are you up to this weekend? It's absolutely pouring down here so a crafty day for me</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm doing a small craft fair next weekend and having a bit of a panic because I've not made much! The advice from crafty friends was keep it simple, I was spending far too long on them, so I've made a pile using old LOTV art pads and some simply prints</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
These 2 fitted in nicely with the current <a href="http://asyoulikeitchallenge.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">AYLI</a> challenge which is your favourite flower (and why!)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Daisies are so pretty, I love the way they open their little faces up to the sun and we used to have a lot of fun with them when I was a child making daisy chains and playing he loves me...he loves me not (although I wouldn't pull the petals out now like we did back then!)</div>
<br />

<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
These cards are very simple, the LOTV image is called delightful daisies and I did the sentiments on the computer. The scalloped frame dies are Papertrey Ink and the daisy die is from a Sue Wilson set</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

The <a href="http://asyoulikeitchallenge.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">AYLI</a> challenge finishes on Wednesday and as always there is a great prize up for grabs and some lovely inspiration from the team</div>

It's been longer in between posts (again!) than I intended but... you know, life got in the way and before I knew it another month had whizzed by!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Good evening everyone, it's been another lovely day here and Keith is putting some steaks on the bbq as I write! I love eating outside and we haven't really much so far this year</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Just wanted to let you know that Loti is on Hochanda in the morning (8am) with some fab Christmas stamps, papers and other goodies from Mama Makes</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Good afternoon lovely friends, quick post from me as I've been making the most of the sunshine and sending some time in the garden</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The current AYLI challenge is to use Summer or Winter colours and say which is your favourite. I haven't got round to doing any Christmas cards yet so went with Summer, I do love this colour combo and use it a lot...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I seem to have made a lot of LOTV cards lately so I thought I'd use something different. This is from a lovely store on Etsy called <a href="https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/StudioDudaArt?ref=pr2018_faveshops&section_id=5328202" target="_blank">StudioDudaArt</a> and her images are a bit quirky, not cute but quite sweet I think</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The sentiment is from a Polkadoodles digi kit and the pearl square die is tattered Lace. I'm not really a fan of their dies but they do have some lovely frames</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hello everyone, thanks so much for stopping by even though I'm hanging my head in shame at the way I've neglected your blogs this past month</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I haven't put my holiday pics onto my laptop yet, I took so many and the thought of sorting them out keeps putting me off doing it!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I just had a lovely weekend away doing a workshop with Tracy Easson. If you haven't heard of her she is the artist behind the Wonky Tonk stamps that Paula at Which Craft! sells.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Tracy has a new range now on her own Etsy store and they are just adorable. I'll take some pics of my makes and post about them shortly</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This fortnight's challenge at <a href="http://asyoulikeitchallenge.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">AYLI </a>is to use your favourite stamp brand and why?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I LOVE so many brands and have a huge stamp stash but I didn't have to think about this one really because it has to be Lili of the Valley...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is one of the Spring images, Happy Birthday bear... I put him on a tag and printed out a few extra flowers to decorate. <span style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: transparent; color: black; display: inline !important; float: none; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: center; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;">Really simple card but I think it's pretty so I hope you like it</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The dotty border die is Tonic</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Just in case you aren't aware, LOTV have moved to digital products only now and you can get them in their Etsy store. The original website will redirect you there</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Don't forget to enter the AYLI challenge... the prize this time is a guest spot on the DT so it would be fab to have one of you join us!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hello everyone... I can't believe it's been so long since my last post so thank you for still stopping by!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've been jetting off to Italy (Lake Garda) and had a lovely time, what a beautiful place. I haven't sorted my pictures out yet so I'll share some in my next post</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then when we got back Jess had an operation on her arm. If you've been here a while you may remember that she was kicked by a horse a couple of years ago and broke her elbow. To cut a long story short it was to correct some nerve problems resulting from that injury. Anyway she couldn't drive and was bored, she came to stay for a bit so I was taxi and entertainment! It was lovely to have her home but (and please don't judge me) I was glad to see the back of her!! She's fine and having physio now so hopefully back to work next week</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
The latest <a href="http://asyoulikeitchallenge.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">AYLI</a> challenge is 'His or Hers' - which is your favourite?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I would usually always say 'Hers' because I love making girlie cards and everything pink and flowery. But I thought I'd have a change and because we are sponsored by Polkadoodles I used the fab Horace and Boo digi kit to make a boys card...</div>

Good morning crafty friends, I should be packing as I'm going on my jollies today but couldn't resist popping on and sharing these adorable new images from Lili of the Valley</div>

If you like the pre-coloured ones the Simply Prints will be available shortly but the rubber and digi stamps will be launched on May 15th</div>

Good morning everyone, it's May, how this that possible? Every year seems to fly by quicker than the last</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's a quick post because I have a busy day, we're going to watch the Tour de Yorkshire this afternoon and then out for a curry with the family for my sister in law's birthday tonight</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
Good morning crafty friends, hope you enjoyed the gorgeous Easter weekend. It was so nice to get out in the garden again and feel some sun on my face, hopefully it's a sign of things to come</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We went to visit Jess and her boyfriend on Sunday and had a lovely afternoon. They've got nicely settled into their house and she actually cooked... badly, but she tried! She used to pay Joe to make her toast for lunch when they were at home, I have tried over the years but she has no interest in cooking and doesn't take after her Mum in that department lol </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Time for a new challenge at AYLI and it's ribbons or flowers. A tricky choice as most of us use both! I don't use ribbon as much as I used to so I've chosen flowers as I put them on most of my cards. I love the mulberry flowers but recently am preferring to use die cuts, I have a lot of dies</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used one of the latest LOTV spring cuties and enjoyed colouring it...</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Good evening crafty friends, I'm sneaking in a quick post before the Easter holidays are upon us otherwise I'll forget and it will be another week! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thank you so much for your comments on my last post, I'm very grateful that you are still stopping by when it's been weeks since I caught up with your blogs, I promise to be round shortly to see what you've all been making</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've been watching Game of Thrones again from the beginning, I was so excited for the new season which started this week. None of my friends or family watch it but I think it's got to be one of the best things that has ever been on tv, for me anyway</div>

The latest challenge at AYLI is your favourite animal and why, I love all animals and I think dogs would probably have to be number 1 but closely followed by cute woodland furries. I used this sweet image from Lili of the Valley called Party Parade which has 3 of them...</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Good morning everyone, where has the past month gone? I just haven't found time for my blog lately despite good intentions. I keep thinking I'll call it a day but I do love blogging and going round to see what you've all been up to so I am really going to try and keep up to it better</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"></span><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I've had a few trips out, went on a spa day with Jess, an AALL & Create art workshop and a trip to Newcastle to see my lovely friends Mary and Andrea</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"></span><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I've done quite a bit of crafting so I'll share a few cards today. First is the AYLI challenge, still time to enter if you're quick and it's your favourite colouring medium sponsored by the fab Lee Holland digis. This is one of his cute images and although I've tried many different colouring products I always go back to my alcohol markers, I used Copics on this and a die by Little B...</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This is a card I made for Jess's boss who had a nasty fall from her horse. I love this Spellbinders tulip frame die. She broke quite a few bones so thinking of you seemed more appropriate than get well soon. This stamp is from a lovely MFT sentiment set which I've used a lot...</span></div>

Good morning crafty friends...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
well another week has whizzed by in a flash!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
February and March are busy for me with family birthdays and anniversaries etc so always pass quickly. I had a lovely birthday, Keith was working so I spent the day with my Mum and Sister in law and then Keith and I went for a meal last night</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Lots of birthdays always mean too much eating and drinking though, we're going to Italy in May and it will be here before I know it so I need to start losing a few pounds before it's too late as my clothes are all too tight!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
The latest challenge at AYLI is all about layers, I tend to use lots of layers on my cards as I find one layer/CAS very difficult</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love using Polkadoodles at the moment, this is an image from Fuzzy Puffs and the digikit is in the Horace and Boo collection…</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I like fussy cutting so adding all the extra elements is fun for me and I enjoy building up the layers</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
As always there is lots of fab inspiration from the team, and you can find all the details for entering the challenge <a href="http://asyoulikeitchallenge.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">here</a></div>

I don't usually enter challenges but I know Polkadoodles host a couple of nice ones so I've entered this card<br />

Good evening, hope you're all having a nice weekend</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I went to the Harrogate Stamperama show this morning but was disappointed. I queued for 20 minutes to get in and it was a small room with too many people. It was heaving, you couldn't move, couldn't see anything, just got carried along in the sea of people.<br />
I like my personal space and with the hot flushes I'm having it was just unbearable so I bought a couple of Studio Light stamps and came home.<br />
Sadly I think the shows have had their day, there weren't many exhibitors and there wasn't anything you can't find online cheaper.<br />
Couldn't even get in the café for a cuppa, I counted 43 people in the line!</div>

Hello everyone, I've been AWOL again but I have an excuse as I've been away on a last minute holiday</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was a bit of a change for us, we went to North Iceland</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was absolutely amazing, what a fantastic place</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Northern Lights were weak and we couldn't go whale watching because of the blizzards but I think if those 2 things had gone to plan it would be my most favourite trip ever... and I've been on a few</div>

Good morning crafty friends, thanks for stopping by and I hope everyone is well</div>

The <a href="http://asyoulikeitchallenge.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #444444;">AYLI</span></a> challenge for this fortnight is your favourite card shape or fold. I don’t often make shaped cards so thought I’d try something different</div>
<div align="center">
This Z fold is very simple to do and I really like it for a change…</div>

…the eagle eyed amongst you will notice that they are the same fairies, I made this card and then had an unfortunate incident with a glass of wine! I managed to save them and used them on the first one</div>

The little fairies are <a href="https://www.liliofthevalley.co.uk/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #444444;">LOTV</span></a> downloads from their Etsy store and the greeting is from the <a href="https://www.liliofthevalley.co.uk/acatalog/Rubber-Stamp-Set---Large-Magical-Sentiments.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #444444;">large magical sentiments</span></a> stamp set</div>

<div align="center">
<span style="font-size: small;"></span> </div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-size: small;">Hello, what are you all up to on this Sunday afternoon?</span></div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-size: small;">I’m doing a bit of crafting today and catching up on some TV. We watched Luther for the first time when it was on recently so I’m catching up on the box set. I have to say I’m enjoying the earlier episodes more; I’ve watched season 1 and just about to start season 2</span></div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-size: small;">I’ve been watching ‘the Crown’ too which I’m really enjoying but I’m interested to know how accurate it actually is</span></div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-size: small;">*</span></div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-size: small;">I’m having real trouble posting to my blog, I’ve always done it in Live Writer without any problems but when I go to publish it’s bringing up an error. I’ve spent ages googling it but can’t seem to fix it. So, I’m having to write the post on blogger which I hate because the spacing and text is so messy. Has anyone else had similar issue over the last couple of weeks?</span></div>
<div align="center">

<span style="font-size: small;">I have a couple of cards to share today that I made with the Copolop bears from <a href="https://mamamakesstore.co.uk/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #444444;">Mama Makes</span></a>. This is a Christmas set but they are so quirky I wanted to use them all year round. You couldn’t do it with all the stamps but I masked the tree from the front of the jumper on these 2 and I think it worked ok…</span></div>

<div align="center">
<span style="font-size: small;"></span> </div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-size: small;">Good evening lovely crafty friends, did you have a nice weekend?</span></div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-size: small;">I went to see the new Mary Poppins film with Jess, it wouldn’t have been my choice but she wanted to see it. I actually really enjoyed it – good old fashioned family entertainment! </span></div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-size: small;">We used to go to the cinema often… maybe we are just getting old and grumpy but after an altercation with some yobs who were running riot and people chatting/phone screens/bags rustling etc we usually end up deciding it’s easier to watch in the comfort of our own home!!</span></div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-size: small;">*</span></div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-size: small;">Must mention before I get onto my card that our lovely Loti from <a href="https://mamamakesstore.co.uk/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #444444;">Mama Makes</span></a> is expecting a precious baby boy</span></div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-size: small;">To celebrate she’s offering a fantastic 30% discount across the store until Feb 1st</span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;">The new <a href="http://asyoulikeitchallenge.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #444444;">AYLI</span></a> challenge is Pearls or Buttons; which is your favourite and why?</span></div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-size: small;">I do like to use both but recently have been using pearl drops instead and I love them. The Nuvo drops come in a great range of colours and you can make them any size you like – no fiddly gluing them on either!</span></div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-size: small;">This is one of the new <a href="http://www.liliofthevalley.co.uk/"><span style="color: #444444;">Lili of the Valley</span></a> fairies, the colours were dictated by the papers which were in my scrap box. I have years and years of bits that I can’t bring myself to throw out so I’m trying to actually use some of them…</span></div>

<br />
<div align="center">
<span style="font-size: small;">Good afternoon everyone, a very happy new year to you all and I hope you had a lovely Christmas. We went to my Brothers which was nice. The kids are all getting partners and houses of their own now so I think this will probably be the last year we are all together as a family on Christmas day</span></div>
<div align="center">

<span style="font-size: small;">*</span></div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;">I decided to take a few weeks out over the holidays, I’m in so many groups on Facebook now and I do like to comment on everyone’s work but it takes so long that I can’t get round my favourite blogs. Before you know it 2 hours have gone by and I’ve sat on the laptop and not made a thing! So I’ve decided just to stay in the LOTV and Polkadoodles groups which are my favourites and I’ve unfollowed the rest. I halved my friend list too, if you’re not interacting I don’t see the point and I had a lot of friends who just added me because we had another 100 crafty friends in common. I’m hoping this will free up some time and if not I’ll have to re-think and maybe move my sharing to Facebook and stop the blog. I know this has been well discussed but I do like my blog, it’s a bit of a diary I enjoy looking back on and I love to visit others too</span></span></div>

<div align="center">
<span style="font-size: small;">The heart string is from another of the stamp sets and the sentiment is snipped from one of the new circles which I love. It’s so long since I used flowers on my cards but it made a nice change</span></div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-size: small;">*</span></div>
<div align="center">
<span style="font-size: small;">I have this one to share too using another of the fairies, there are 4 different images on the rubber sheet. You can see the new sentiment circles on here too, I printed this one quite small…</span></div>
