What's the buzz?

Hello lovely people,

I said I had two projects to share today (check out my other post for Top Tip Tuesday here) and I'm thrilled to say that the second is another guest DT spot...

So, I'm joining in with A Little Bit Crafty where our theme this month is...

THE BIRDS AND THE BEES

No, no, not like that, we want to see actual birds and/or bees please!

This was the perfect excuse to use some cute Pink Petticoat digi images and create a little boxed set of notelets.

I created 2 pockets on the inside with each one holding 3 extremely CAS notelets plus envelopes.

Each notelet has a different sentiment and I simply coloured the bees with Copics (Y18, B0000) then added a tiny gem detail to finish.

Ok, just one more shot of it all tied up with pretty organza ribbon...

Hello lovely people,

Today I have a card to share that was one of those ones that just came together so easily - yes, it doesn't happen very often!  I really must step away from the pink more often...ok, I don't think that will happen but I do love the colours here.

I know I say this about all the SC images but this is just gorgeous!  I had a lot of fun colouring in pretty bright colours too :-)
I also don't think I have credited Dr Hubby with the most recent improvement in my hair colouring.  He suggested that I should leave a white bit to make it look more shiny and although it feels a bit scary when doing it, he is right you know!  Shhh, don't tell him though!

This morning I was all geared up for a crafty day, sat in my craft room and discovered that Mr Mojo had decided to go on a little holiday :-(  So I gave up and pottered around the house for most of the day, popped back in the craft room and Mr Mojo suddenly re-appeared - hurrah!  Let's hope he stays around tomorrow too and I hope he visits you all as well :-)

Thanks for popping in and I really appreciate any comments that you leave,

Hugs,
