Beach Babe

OK! Whoever's kidnapped summer, we're prepared to meet your demands!
My card is as sunny as it gets here in the UK where Autumn, who's been banging on the door for weeks, has now finally broken the door down! Almost had to put the heating on last night, it was soooo cold, but I couldn't get close enough to the rottweiler-guarded, heavilly padlocked heating switch that my OH has installed.
My card today is for my pal Leanne - Happy Birthday mate!!
It's To the Beach from Mo's Digital Pencil. Coloured with PM's, papers from the First Edition Hideaway collection & foamy flowers from the Flower Factory with orange glass gem centres.

"Hoot-a-Nancy" ... get it?

Morning my fellow Soggy Bloggeroonies!
As a non-qualified Weather-Woman with a rather large crystal ball I predict great changes in the weather...ooohhh (eerie sounds)...as I rub my ball I see sunshine, hot days and ...wait for it ... long, warm, balmy Autumn evenings. This will all happen in EXACTLY one weeks time when ...wait ... rubbing ball a little harder...wait...yes I can see...when the Kids go back to flamin' school!!!!!!!!
My card today was a request for a lady called Nancy about to celebrate her 90th Birthday who 'lurvs' owls.
This owl was a freebie from Making Our Mark, coloured with Promarkers, with glazed glasses and a guilded-flaked belly. The DP's are from the Basic Grey Indian Summer collection, a random flower from my stash with a brad centre & gorgeous black leafy peel-offs & amber gems to finish.

Mis-informed!

So...yesterday was spent under the stairs cowering from the torrential rain and thunder storms that were brewing in the south & working their way up to my neck of the woods. Couldn't do any colouring as all electrical appliances had been disconnected to protect them from the impending doom forecast.  I sat there for 8 hours in the dark with a jam-butty & a glass of milk you know ... and for what ...?
DRIZZLE...YES!! FLAMIN' DRIZZLE!!
Sending this card to the Weather-Peeps as an appreciation of thier 'trusty' predictions...NOT!
The paper on my card today was from a freebie set off Simply Cards & Papercraft magazine (issue 87) by Craftwork Cards called Botanicals. Mounted onto Bazzil black card, with a K&Co 'Smitten' butterfly & rub-on sentiment from Kaisercrafts.

Slurp!

It's a grey ol' day out today...thunderstorms (EEK!) and torrential rain are forecast so I'm gonna slip in a quick card before I disconnect the electricity supply & take cover under the stairs.
This vision of loveliness is Me (ahem!) Little Umbrella from Mo's Digital Pencil. Coloured with Promarkers (as if you hadn't guessed), DP is a random 12x12 Basic Grey sheet that I had but I don't know the name sorry...punched & foamy flowers from The Flower Factory with punched paper centres & orange, glassy gems, letters by Doodlebug.
See yer when the storms pass...
