</div>
<div align="center">
hello,</div>
<div align="center">
Its challenge time again over at Creative Inspirations.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
we had such a lot of lovely entries last time so i'm hoping you will all join in again.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
the theme this fortnight is spring.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
the first thing that I think of for spring is always the beautiful daffodils</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
so of course I had to use this beautiful simple digi.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbIfH6-cuTNY-tIJl6bE6b0_aibWqtd5qQ7fJ1EPZ5Dhg-WQjnA6FAfDdsfMEpc3j4F8yMc1Vr5DsYCpBdrAqPWBbrcka2xq9KPrNg83i59YmofL1Oaf3kNweKdSesmxddrtbdtZUig-Qg/s1600/IMG_3533.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbIfH6-cuTNY-tIJl6bE6b0_aibWqtd5qQ7fJ1EPZ5Dhg-WQjnA6FAfDdsfMEpc3j4F8yMc1Vr5DsYCpBdrAqPWBbrcka2xq9KPrNg83i59YmofL1Oaf3kNweKdSesmxddrtbdtZUig-Qg/s400/IMG_3533.jpg" width="372" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and because it was such a beautiful sunny spring day I took my card out in the garden to take a photo of it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It actually felt more like summer here in Essex.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
the garden is looking pretty with all the new buds showing, don't you just love this time of year!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Please pop over to the other design team members to see what they have created for spring and then feel free to enter your creations <a href="http://cinspirations.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">HERE</a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Our challenge is one of my favorites this fortnight, Petals and Pearls.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
check out the amazing cards created by my team mates, they are all so pretty.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
I tried to keep my card clean and simple, mainly because I had a new Apple Blossom die set I wanted to play with. Its the Floral Frame set from <a href="http://www.craftstash.co.uk/">www.craftstash.co.uk</a> and I love it!</div>
<div align="center">

I used a photo of my son and daughter-in-law behind an acetate window. I love this picture of them together.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I cut the die out of the card blank and then put it back over the acetate and add some pearls. Its the perfect anniversary card for them.</div>

hi crafty friends, </div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">

<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
our sponsor is bugaboo which is one of my favorite digi sites, I love their cute and images.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
I chose these funny little dogs and grouped them together.</div>
<div align="center">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It kinda hurts me too because as some of you already know I lost my beloved dog this week. We are all so heart broken so if I don't get round to leaving comments on your entries this fortnight I hope you will understand why. I just don't feel like doing anything at the moment, not even crafting.</div>

</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
Hello friends and visitors, I'm here with my PinChicks challenge today, yes, I know i'm a day early but I didn't want it to clash with my Creative Inspirations challenge that goes live tomorrow.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
so on to the pin which I have really enjoyed even tho it was an easy thing to make.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
there is a little story to this pin...</div>
<div align="center">
a very good friend of mine (you know who you are) has been an absolute rock to me while ive been struggling and she ends every message with 'Chin up Chicken' and she told me that her dad always says that to her when she needs to hear it. </div>
<div align="center">
It makes me feel special that she would share a special family saying with me. like I said, she is a very special friend.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
so I wanted to make her something to thank her for always being there and of course where would I look..... Pinterest of course! </div>
<div align="center">
and I found the perfect little chicken. </div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZ1RfLc-_fEuSnquF-W5j6RxSR5H3nuxxdymYx7IFCjNaWucTYFS59_ANW1bN4X97negtEw9yvHvw8Fbpqxrb-qOdMmFGrPhVkh9Hed128ExS8X4SWUPJAffA2dGoXaBSIHLG74rg0v8jg/s1600/chin+up+chicken.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZ1RfLc-_fEuSnquF-W5j6RxSR5H3nuxxdymYx7IFCjNaWucTYFS59_ANW1bN4X97negtEw9yvHvw8Fbpqxrb-qOdMmFGrPhVkh9Hed128ExS8X4SWUPJAffA2dGoXaBSIHLG74rg0v8jg/s400/chin+up+chicken.JPG" width="300" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have a set of heart dies so cutting the felt was easy and I hand stitched the wording, blanket stitched around the edge before stuffing him and adding a little eye. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
he was very quick and simple to make but I was pleased with him and so was my friend. she deserves much more than a stuffed chicken but I think she knows I was thinking of her and her lovely dad the whole time I was making this.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I will keep her name private but I really do want her to know how much she has helped me througha dark patch. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
there wasn't a tutorial for this chicken but its made from various size hearts dies and straightforward to put together.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
so....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I felt a bit bad on my other talented pinchicks because I know they will be putting in a lot of time and effort on this months projects so I thought id share what else I have been making this month.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
this is a pin I have used before but I loved the pattern so decided to make another one.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div align="center">
Hello Crafty friends,</div>
<div align="center">
Its time for another challenge over at Creative Inspirations and we would love to see some frosty florals this time.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
our sponsor is Petal Lu and there is a great prize up for grabs so please come and join us.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
I've used my Altenew Beautiful Day stamp set.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsCJvZ-FUTwFRT02e9n2wGbSk2aRfWl3PJOfWfiTUjkez_OiNXKQnRBv0JIb20MILlr2Sx1792mlkbSEo979Pa8wDwkl1_KYAmWaAmSkCjeixRLLzD1J1hsqfWOAwOOQFYhVfhbNFxGggg/s1600/floral.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="392" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsCJvZ-FUTwFRT02e9n2wGbSk2aRfWl3PJOfWfiTUjkez_OiNXKQnRBv0JIb20MILlr2Sx1792mlkbSEo979Pa8wDwkl1_KYAmWaAmSkCjeixRLLzD1J1hsqfWOAwOOQFYhVfhbNFxGggg/s400/floral.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I've used watercolour paints to colour the flowers but its my first attempt at painting and I obviously need a lot more practice but I can say I did enjoy trying them.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I add some SnowWriter and some Twinklets Diamond dust to give a frosty look to the flowers.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
the snowflakes are a die from Cheery Lynn and loooooove them!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
the sentiment is from stamping up and I used some silver heat embossing powder. I will never get fed up with watching the powder melt and come to life LOL</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I half cut the flowers out and then tucked a round nestability die under them. I'm pleased with how that worked out.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
so this is my card and now its over to you....</div>

Hi Pinchicks!</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
I'm running a bit late late today sorry.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
I'm here now tho and I've been playing with string. </div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
Hubby had to pop to the diy shop so I asked him to pick up a couple of balls of string for me and he gave me one of those looks....</div>
<div align="center">
you know the ones that silently says 'what on earth is she up to now'? </div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
but he did as I asked and came home with the string so I set about my project...</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
the original pin had leather handles on the basket but I don't think hubby would have been happy if I cut up his leather belt. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I made the two smaller baskets with the left over string.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

</div>
<div align="center">
hello, happy Wednesday!</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
I have to start this post by saying thank you to everyone who joining in this fortnight, we had some amazing creations. I love visiting your blogs so please keep joining us.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
this fortnight is a favorite with sooooo many of you, its Anything Goes and we are expecting a huge turn out. I get exciting thinking about all you clever people I get to meet. </div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
Some of you will know that my furbaby has had surgery so I've spent every second keeping an eye on her and making sure she doesn't touch her stitches. We did try the lampshade collar but it was way too stressful and when she fell down the stairs in it hubby decided that was enough! I'm surprised he didn't chuck it in the bin!</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
so with my eyes fixed on her I didn't get much chance to craft so I decided not to spend a lot of time colouring an image. we can still make nice cards without image right?</div>
<div align="center">

I used Memory Box Fresh Foliage die.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used a book page for the backing. I find it so hard to tear pages from a book, it goes against everything I have been taught. I've always looked after my books.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
the sentiment is from a set called Be Happy Sentiments from AmyR stamps. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
this is a very simple card and I followed the sketch which is available on the blog today, although I didn't add the flowers. I'm sure you can do better than me. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

</div>
<div align="center">
Hello, happy Wednesday!</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
Its the last day of the month which means its pinterest time again.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
if you don't know what on earth i'm talking about well, a few of us crafty ladies pick a project from pinterest and give it a go. It can be anything... gardening, cooking, crochet, tatting, cardmaking or something completely random that takes your fancy. Household cleaning hacks are also allowed but I haven't seen many of those...I wonder why! LOL</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
I better start with my 'excuse' this month....</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
I've found it difficult to head in the right place because I have been dealing with my furbaby Tia.</div>
<div align="center">
oh I love her to bits!</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
I found a lump and the vet said it will grow but wont spread so because of her age we decided to wait and see if it did actually grow before putting an old lady through a nasty surgery but sure enough that horrible lump grew so on Friday by baby went under the knife. </div>
<div align="center">
She is so brave and so strong and just 3 days later she acting just like her normal gorgeous self.</div>
<div align="center">

Sunday and she is up and about and watching out for those pesty pigeons!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She now back to her happy self!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
fingers are crossed for good results from the vet and all the lovely messages that have been sent are very much appreciated. THANK YOU!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
keep her in your prayers for me. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
ok, sorry crafters, are you still with me or did you get bored with the doggy talk?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
on to my pin....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I've been looking at all the pins for art journals and I really love them.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
the trouble for me is I don't go out very often so I don't have any interesting places to journal about. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I seen lots of Journals with nice uplifting words and words of appreciations in them but i'm struggling with my own dark cloud at the moment so that wasn't going to work for me either.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
then I was sorting out my book shelf to see which books I could pass on to another reader and I picked up a very old little dictionary and like a lightbulb in my head I decided to use that for a sort of art journal... an art dictionary!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
my book it old and only 4inches but I love it!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i'm putting my stamps to good use and lots of different mediums. Its so much fun and its going take me forever to fill it up.</div>

</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
As you can see I haven't done many pages yet but I am loving it and I have many more pages stamped and ready to go so I will add them to my pin challenge blog post each month as a little extra. I'll still make a new pin each month of course. I've already got Septembers pin ready to start.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
please take the time to pop over to the other members blogs to see which pin they worked on this month.</div>

</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
wow its the end of july already, how did that happen?</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
I've neglected my blog and my crafting this month due to ill health but I wont bore you with that.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
I did manage to get my pin finished BUT I have to owe up and tell you that It didn't end up as planned.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
I have been collecting ring pulls/soda tabs as I just knew I would end up wanting some one day (you know we all do that sort of stuff don't we.)</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
So I got my ring pulls out and searched pinterest, who knew you could make SOOOOOO many different things, jewellery, clothes, YES clothes!</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
I chose a nice bag. long strap and fold over flap. It looked easy enough.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
But.....</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
It wasn't as easy as I though. It just turned out to be such slow work.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
Then I took a day off and went to visit my parents. Now anyone who knows my dad will know he is the sort of man that doesn't let you leave his house without taking something with you.... biscutes, sweets or in my case a lamp! </div>
<div align="center">
yep, he gave me a little desk lamp which I put in the back of my car but on the way home it got damage.....</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
My gorgeous Tia sat on it!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQ-5mEMgkBgsvIzXZwtQRmBfWwfX2XftpcDZOX7ZD9tuFdrzdAY3ZAq7YIejL6ne_-4VMfBqbCmfP8lFfeq28nAwqBdk39xjJTbGj7heYwIeXBHGeSKQzgDuz5itFPzlrdMLY_a8ZG6RSN/s1600/IMG_1911.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQ-5mEMgkBgsvIzXZwtQRmBfWwfX2XftpcDZOX7ZD9tuFdrzdAY3ZAq7YIejL6ne_-4VMfBqbCmfP8lFfeq28nAwqBdk39xjJTbGj7heYwIeXBHGeSKQzgDuz5itFPzlrdMLY_a8ZG6RSN/s320/IMG_1911.JPG" width="240" /></a></div>
<div align="center">
look at the state of this lamp shade.</div>
<div align="center">
It wasn't Tia's fault, she can do no wrong in my eyes. LOL</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
so that's when the idea came to me that I could change my pin and make it into a shade.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwsGbngMnUakdspreAaW-5KFr1Zj9p3cPw2I-AC0IiWs9CZzxvNJTndb16GPCZ-ELy4DGFIsG1fFGSSxLsos4lPS3W1c2bfvliZ0sj-vDcJH2rKf3ERTGM9qQ9S2Pk2Ez19PXIy_ho7Wcg/s1600/IMG_1915.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwsGbngMnUakdspreAaW-5KFr1Zj9p3cPw2I-AC0IiWs9CZzxvNJTndb16GPCZ-ELy4DGFIsG1fFGSSxLsos4lPS3W1c2bfvliZ0sj-vDcJH2rKf3ERTGM9qQ9S2Pk2Ez19PXIy_ho7Wcg/s320/IMG_1915.JPG" width="240" /></a></div>
<div align="center">
I had already got this much done so I didn't want to start all over again and do it as the pin said so I carried on with the original bag pattern method.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I used the crochet method to join the pulls.</div>
