Craft time!

Hi all!
So, I've been and had a little holiday over on the Greek Isle of Zakynthos (Zante), for a week and I'm missing my friends there like mad now! Isn't it just rubbish going on holiday for one week only? I mean, what really is the point? And yet.....we do it twice a year!!!
I'd much prefer to stay for longer but, as the OH works for himself, it isn't cost effective for him to be away from work for too long - or, as I think, he just can't abide to be away from work for too long otherwise he gets fidgety!
So, we end up with two weeks away split over the year.
This holiday has been no different to the others in as much as it was excellent! Tiring (exhausting actually), because I never sleep when I'm away; I've over indulged on food and drink (yaaay - that's what holidays are for!) and emotional because I love to meet my friends but hate to leave them again :(.
Anyhoo, I know I need to start healthy eating again--------at some point! So many cakes, so little time!

Before I went away, I did make a few items for Papercraft Inspirations (as you do!) and for myself too!

My latest card in the Papercraft Inspirations mag  consisted of some lovely Stampin' Up papers and cut outs to make the cutest giraffe shaker card (pictured)


I also made my daughters birthday card (33 - where do the years go?) and I made this using the free stamps from Creative Stamping magazine (70) by Hot off The Press.



I have also made 3 cards using issue 71 stamps, Creative Stamping mag, but I've not put sentiments on them yet as they're just for my stash and if anybody needs a card for maybe a wedding/engagement/anniversary etc. They're made in the same format as the birthday card as that's my go-to style this month!!!




So that's all for now folks!

I've got my head full of DT stuff for Pinflair as our Jo has a show in the next week or so and she certainly knows how to keep me out of mischief!!!

Have a great weekend everyone
