New release, birthday candy and a card

Happy Sunday! It's a tad bit wet here in Scotland...the rain was hitting me from all angles this morning when I was walking the dogs :-(

I've got some exciting news for you...we have a new release!!! Please grab the banner for your blogs,  spread the news and we look forward to seeing you on the 18th!

I still haven't heard from my birthday candy winner Gail Townsend. If anyone knows her can you give her a nudge...the deadline to claim the candy is January 31st otherwise I'll randomly choose another name.

As I said in my previous post I didn't get to craft much over the holidays except for 2 cards. I didn't have a lot of time so they had to be quick. I saw a card on Pinterest {LOVE} which was perfect so I cased it and added the text. There's no LCI image involved as I didn't have time to colour.

I love using dies ... they are brilliant for quick cards...this one probably took about 15 minutes!

Using the negative allows your pretty papers to show through. 

We had Coen overnight on Friday while Ben was wining and dining Nicole on a date night. He is such a good little boy ... although at 8 months (yup you read right) he has no interest in rolling over he loves being on his feet so I'm guessing he's going to just get up one day and walk and skip rolling over and crawling lol. 

This was Coen Saturday morning...obviously teething!

and with Uncle Ryan. 

Gotta load of things to do today so I'll skedaddle. Don't forget to grab the new release banner for your blogs....I'm so excited!!!

Catch ya later x
