DCM Little Extra - Black & ONE Colour

'This weeks little extra is to use Black and ONE other colour only. We, the design team decided to be really nice to you all and allow shades of that one colour to make it really easy for you (and us...he..he...! (see aren't we nice to you ?).'


How exciting!! This is the first challenge I have dared to take part in, mainly because I can never normally find the time. I caught sight of these gorgeous blooms and decided my one other colour should be white.

Materials used are DCWV PP, L'il Davis ribbon from stash, flowers by Dream Designs, Doodlebug button, brads from stash, Autumn Leaves stamp.
TFL!

(Edited to say that I've just realised I used pink brads instead of black which would make it black and two colours - oops!!)

What year do you belong in?

Found this cool quiz on Jo Kill's blog and apparently I belong in 1968 - eh!? I was obviously born 10 years too late.






You Belong in 1968



You are a free spirit with a huge heart. Love, peace, and happiness rule - oh, and drugs too.



Thank you...


One of the many thank you cards I am still trying to get done to thank everyone for Oscar's presents.



Basic Grey PP, ribbon from Little Silver Hat, flower from Dream *Designs*, Bazzill eyelets from stash, Bazzill button from stash, Thank You printed with King & Queen font.

Sugar & Spice and All Things Nice

Welcome to my new craft blog!
I wanted a place where I could display and share my work with everyone so set up a new blog, Sugar & Spice. Having recently giving birth to my second son in February 2007, I have decided to concentrate on baby themed paper bag albums, mini albums, cards, keepsake tins and other altered items. I still intend to create items with other themes such as birthday, friends, and Christmas.
Unfortunately my hands are still pretty full caring for a new baby, a toddler and keeping the house running so no time for crafting at the moment...boo hoo. It's so frustrating as I have all this time to sit and think up designs and buy new stash but no time to make anything. I'm still trying to make my thank you cards for Oscar's presents.
So please keep an eye on my new blog as I hope to be able to start creating soon and sharing.
