Dipping my toe into all things Tim Holtz!

I am truly becoming a fan of everything Tim Holtz!  This is my first go at making a grungy type card....I bought some of the diecuts from ebay just to have a play before I invested in the real thing!

I think I need some more practice! Any hints and tips will be gratefully received!

I was on his blog the other day looking at the blog video from his cruise....it looks amazing!!!!! I want to go on one!

Holly Jolly DT kit......

This is my first make with this months DT kit from Simply Create....Beautiful MME Holly Jolly papers  and a Holly Jolly Stamp Set...some lace and some buttons.

These papers are truly gorgeous and part of me really didn't want to cut them up!

I stamped three reindeer with Versacolor Pinecone and clear embossed.....the edges are inked with Antique Linen and Walnut Stain and then I stamped some little snowflakes round the edge.

The brown ribbon is from my own stash.

I am going to enter this into the challenge over at Top Tip Tuesday which is Anything Goes!

I have a lovely little jewellery box from my kit that I am in the process of altering just now!

Thanks for looking!

Little Peek.....

Been busy playing with my DT kit from Simply Create and will be posting my first card up tomorrow....just thought I would give you a sneeky peek! Lots of lovely papers and stamps from MME.

Not that great a day here today so the girls and I kept the blinds shut and spent the day watching DVDs!

Beautiful Day.............

It's been a gorgeous day here in Fort William so I dragged myself from my cubby and we went off to Eilean Donan Castle for the afternoon! It was great...a few gents dressed in costume and telling everyone about the history of the castle....and as it was quite quiet they let the girls hold some of the cannonballs and showed us some secret rooms! Some lucky people were getting married there later today too!

Living here in the Highlands I don't really stop to take in how beautiful it is...now it is in to Autumn the colours are stunning.......so we were tourists for the day and stopped at a few viewpoints along the way!

Simply Sassy!!!!!

Sore hands or no sore hands I just had to ink up these girls!! She is called "Little Light of Mine" from the Simply Sassy Collection from Funkykits!

They were available for pre-order for a few days and I think they will be released as singles in a couple of weeks. They arrived this morning and I just had to get colouring straight away!

I am off to colour the other five!

Oh what a feeling.......

When your dancing on the ceiling!!! ( remember that song!?)

I love my postie!! (well not really cos he always has a fag hanging out his mouth when he comes to the door!)

Not only did he bring my Simply Sassy girls from Funkykits

But my kit for this month from Simply Create!

And a set of Tim Holtz stamps that I bagged on Ebay!

Happy Days!!!

Ketto.....................

Quick little card from last night.....I haven't been doing much just now as my eczema has flared up and my fingers are mad itchy just now so they are plastered in my horrible slimy ointment that I have for when it gets bad and there is no way I am going near all my lovely papers and card!  I am thinking it is maybe the new shampoo I have been using so that is getting chucked!lol

I had all these pieces cut and the image coloured already so it was just a case of putting it all together!

I am just hoping that my hands clear up soon as my next DT kit from Simply Create is on its way!!!!
