A Red Challenge and Bye Bye 2009!.......

I've been meaning to join in with the ATC challenges over at Steff's Stuff for a while now

....but life has been a little hectic here, and with the added Christmas preparations, found it a little difficult to keep up with a lot of swaps and challenges!!

So, finally here is my ATC for this weeks 'Red' Challenge:

I've used various rubber stamps and the cute little image is from 'Crafty Individuals', added a few buttons and some lace.

Steff and I have traded ATC's in the past, and she makes some lovely art!

...So if you fancy an ATC Challenge, pop over to Steff's, she posts a new challenge every Monday.

... I'm feeling optimistic that 2010 will help me find my crafty mojo!!
Well, it's still 2009, and I've been busy making some Thank you cards

.....and here is a little ATC to wish all my friends and blogging buddies ...
....A Happy New Year!!

The image is a freebie from Clearly Vintage blog

Cora is so generous and posts some wonderful images

for you to use in your artwork.

Thank you Cora!!

A Happy New Year to all!

May 2010

bring you Health and Happiness,

...and a lots of 'crafty' inspiration also!! ;)

Here's to the bright new year,
and a fond farewell to the old;
here's to the things that are yet to come,
and to the memories that we hold.

Our talented blogging friend Hermine is our ATC guest designer please come and meet her why not bring a friend.

We also have some fab blog candy up for grabs you are soooo welcome to try for some of it.

I have been so busy since the summer renovating my house I have not been able to blog and craft as much as I would like but this month I hope to change that as I have missed both.

Take care and much creative love comes your way.
