Yes! I am on a roll!... so another card from the Valley High Card Kit.  This one I left the wood veneer message and cut out heart be the focal point.

Thanks for peeking!

Happy Birthday!

Supplies:  Studio Calico - Valley High Card Kit, 

Wood veneer shapes - SC, machine stitching, glossy accents

 and sequins.

Another card created with the Valley High Card Kit.

I think this would be perfect for a teen.  I added machine stitching around the edge which held the tag to the cardstock.  I stamped the stamp in black, fussy cut it out and added a layer of glossy accents on top to get a shiny speech bubble.  A light sprinkle of white sequins finishes it off.

Thanks for peeking.  Hope you have a wonderful day.  Thanks so much for stopping by.

Hello... there!

Supplies:  Studio Calico - Valley High Card Kit

I am back creating but just didn't have enough hours in the day to post some photos!  My PC ground to a halt as it was running out of memory - just transferred/backed up to an external hard drive so we are back in action! Yipee!

Here I am sharing a card I created with the Valley High Card Kit I got during/before the Summer but never managed to get a chance to use.

Thanks for peeking - hope you have a great day.

Missing this little cutie!

Missing this little cutie - even asked the boys yesterday morning what colour/breed of dog they would like next!?  Am I mad?

I actually tweeted this photo a few days ago and the @irishguidedogs responded 

@DeirdreIrl Absolutely not! Who could resist the chance to do something so rewarding while spending time with such amazing dogs?

I know they are sooooo right!  I just thought I'd take a little break!!!

My hubby reckons we won't last past the end of October! LOL!

I spoke to the trainer that has been assigned to Clarly last Monday.  She told me Clarly is settling in well and getting to know her kennel companions.  Most, if not all of her litter is now in training - which is fantastic.  The trainers have to initially create a bond with each new dog so that is what they are working on with Clarly this week.  Next week she gets to leave the centre to do some training in urban locations.

Thanks for stopping by - hope you have a wonderful day.

Where did the Summer go?

Clarly - 12 months old

Hi everyone - I know.... I haven't posted here since June 24th!.  I am sorry but this year Ireland actually got a Summer!.  It took about 15 years to get here so the whole country took advantage of al fresco dining, swimming in the sea and enjoying the outdoors!.

Boat Buddies!

We had a wonderful time and enjoyed the school holidays. 

I have been doing some creating with some Studio Calico card kits that arrived and I will share them over the coming days.  I have challenged myself to create with the kits before I look at any of the inspiration/creations online.  It's not going too badly! (hope I don't jinx it!).

Leaving soon!

This little girl turned one during August and returns to the Irish Guide Dogs next Thursday to commence her formal training.  We will be heartbroken but hope that she will go on to have a positive impact on someone's life after her training is completed.

Will be back with some creations I promise!  Thanks so much for stopping by!
