So little time this week but the sketch over at Scrapbook Steals Midweek Mojo lends itself perfectly to pocket scrapbooking which is the perfect kind of memory keeping for people with little time to create!

Cute Card Thursday - Candy

This week on Cute Card Thursday the theme is
Candy!
I found this Boot template on the Silhouette Online Store and had fun decorating it up for Halloween.  The image is a Wee Stamp from Whimsy Stamps called Hazel.
I am also entering this into the 
 The boot is a bit fiddly to put together mainly because of the curves, it is best to glue a little and then leave to dry thoroughly before trying to glue more pieces.  In the end it took about 4 days coming back and forth to it!  Worth it in the end though, I love it!  Might have to make another one for Christmas!

Midweek Mojo - Carnation 5

Love this sketch and love this paper, it is Teresa Collins!  I started this at the retreat this past weekend but left it unstuck until I got home so I could do some machine stitching on it - my favourite thing to do! 
The retreat was so fabulous, it has got me back into scrapping mode after taking a long hiatus! 

Midweek Mojos Carnation 1 - 4

Just back from the Scrapbook Steals Retreat over the weekend, was so much as fun always.  I have attended every one they have held in the past 5 years! 
I haven't scrapped since last year but I have so enjoyed catching up with these layouts using some old photos.  
I am also catching up with the Scrapbook Steals Midweek Mojo.  The series is called Carnation and her are the 1st 4 in the series.

Cute Card Thursday - One Layer

The theme on Cute Card Thursday this week is
One Layer
Now, we are not super strict over on CCT so we will allow a backing layer as we understand for people who stamp and use Copics etc they do bleed through and we don't want people to make unusable cards!  
Here is my almost one layer card -

Cute Card Thursday - Masculine

This week the theme on Cute Card Thursday is
Masculine
I spotted this amazing little tool box that Flati (Sonja) designed and had to try it for myself.
I found some old masculine stamps to decorate and added a flat cap and cell phone charm.  
 Sonja has provided both a pdf and also an svg file for those who have a cutting machine.  I used the file on my cameo and it was so quick and easy!
 I love the cantilever action.
 There are small compartments to add little gifts.
We are sponsored this week by Bunny Zoe's Crafts, always a fabulous prize to win!

Cute Card Thursday - Things with wings

Our theme this week at Cute Card Thursday is
Things with Wings!
I have used a Sherri Baldy image, this one is one of her Big Eye Big Head dolls img447
coloured with Prismacolor Pencils.  
 
 I have always loved to finish off the insides of my cards with a little simple decoration.  I also decorated the back of the card to match the front but of course forgot to photograph it!  
We are sponsored by Sherri Baldy this week, she is offering the winner 3 of her digital images. 
I hope you can join us!

Cute Card Thursday - Chocolate!

This week the theme on Cute Card Thursday is
Chocolate!
Never one to pass up some chocolate I had to create something this week!  
I have created similar chocolate bar covers in the past but I found this tutorial for this style of cover. 
 I used a Whimsy Stamps rubber stamp called Marshmallow and Coffee from their Time for Tea range.  Coloured with Prismacolor pencils.  Also from Whimsy Stamps I used their Corner Die set and fancy square die.
 I am determined to use my stash for the next little while as I have obscene amounts of everything, but especially hundreds of stamps which have gone unloved for a long time!  
The chocolate themed stamps are a set from Stampin Up. 
 A little tag inside to write a message to the recipient.  It is created with the Whimsy Stamps  Double Scallop Tag die.
We are sponsored this week by Whimsy Stamps who are offering a $15 gift certificate to the winner!
Thanks for dropping by, hope you will join us this week!

I actually made something!

First time creating anything in almost a year and first time colouring in about 15 months!  
I am very rusty it has to be said but I did enjoy getting back into it!  
Here is a simple bookmark for starters!  I love making bookmarks, not only do I use them then lose them, they are a great way of using up scraps.  This was made up entirely out of my scraps boxes!  
The theme on Cute Card Thursday this week is 
Monochrome - as always on CCT we are very flexible with our themes, we are okay with flesh and hair colours being an extra!  
We are sponsored this week by Sherri Baldy, you can find this darling image in her Etsy store here! 
Thanks for stopping by!
