Reasonable Ruby's!

Evening all, now before I show you a card, you need to read this!

Please grab the poster and add it to your side bar, I have to say that the image that I've got to use is fantastical, I can't wait to show you!

Anyway, on to today's card, made some time ago but up until now I haven't been able to share as the recipient has only just received it. The image reminds me lots of her daughter and as the little girl's favourite colour is pink, I thought it would be a good choice, least I hope so as I know the recipient does't share her daughter's taste in colour!.

My gorgeous "Shopping Ruby" is still available whilst stocks last, in the 70% off stamp sale at LCI, it's not every day you get to buy a ruby for only £1.95.  

I'm using this card for the following challenges:-

TG190, Wings,

CR 50, Anything goes with ribbon,

PCJ, Not square,

TPDC, Colour recipe,

CFAS55, Girly,

RR57, Wings,

MIM146, Anything goes.

Midway Reminder (Revisited)

Evening all, please forgive me that my

Skateboard Josh is an LCI digi and you can find him along with many other in the Teenager range.

I'm using this card for the 

MIM Challenge where they encourage you to share favourite makes, new and old.

A Trip Down Memory Lane.

Happy Wednesday!

I was chatting to Queen Ladybug herself yesterday evening and she remarked that she hadn't used the "Jack" stamp from yesterday's post for a while, this got me thinking and so I thought I'd take you on a trip down memory lane, showing you some of my favourite LCI images that I haven't used for a while.

They are available in the sale at the moment and I wouldn't want you to miss out!

70% off is a HUGE discount!

Anyway, I'm getting distracted,the card below was my Guest Designer post, before Kerry realised that she just couldn't do without me lol!

The image is 

"Hide and Seek Jack" 

and is only

£1.95

Guilty Jack is also available in the sale, just check out that cheeky little face:)

I'm going to link this post to Make it Monday

where they encourage you to link favourite makes,

 past and present.

 I'll be back later for another trip down memory lane.

Till then, thanks for stopping by,

Anything Goes With The Ladybugs.

Oh my Goodness can you believe that in one week's time, Santa will have delivered the pressie's and will be sitting with his feet soaking in a bowl of water and relaxing whilst Mother Clause cooks his Christmas dinner!

So why then am I still struggling to get the Christmas cards made? So when Queen Ladybug Kerry decided that the last  TLT challenge of 2012 would be "Anything Goes"

there was only one way that I could go!

I coloured up my rather gorgeous "Tracey and Reindeer" for the first time and made an oh so simple design of a card.

Now I know it's a bit late for this year but if you fancy treating yourself to this stamp it's still available at 70% off which would make it an absolute bargain at £1.95!!!

Check out the 70% off cling stamp sale

Snowflakes

Happy Tuesday!!!!!

The Ladybugs have a new theme today and this fortnight the hostess is Diane who wants to see  "Snowflakes"

 

 

Kerry gave each of the Ladybugs an acetate box to have a play with. I coloured my Mr and Mrs Snowman Delight, paperpiecing their hats and scarves.

 





I then covered 4x35g bars of chocolate to go inside, layering the papers and embossing the pearlescent white paper..

 



 

I think this would make a perfect stocking gift or teacher's gift, coming out at under £4 for the four bars and the acetate box.

 

 

 

Here are the sizes and prices for the clear boxes in inches as they will be on the website...

4 1/8" x 4 1/16" x 1" - 45p each

5 5/8" x 5 1/2" x 1" - 60p each

4 7/8" x 6 5/8" x 1" - 60p each

6 1/8" x 6 1/16" x 1" - 70p each

4 1/2" x 5 7/8" x 1" - 60p each

 

I'm using this gift for the following challenges:-

 

C4E7, Anything goes,

DVC45, Anything goes,

Squirrel and Fox 31, Anything goes,

Allsorts 181, It's a gift,

MIM116, Anything goes,

SPS, Gift.

What Are You Here For ?????

 

This is where you need to be!

 

 

 

 

But thanks for stopping by!

Catch you later,

Julie.x

 

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!

 

 

 

I know what you're thinking, and before you say it, no I haven't lost the plot but maybe Kerry has!

I've heard that The Queen bug herself gave one of her loyal subjects (well Susan actually) the commands to write up the details of the forthcoming sale, well, I do believe that she made a bit of a mix up with the wording, either that or she's been sniffing at the Copics again!

 

70% Reduction on all Cling Stamps

 

Surely there must be a mistake! Want my advice?

 

Make your list,

 

 Check it twice,

 

 Whether you're friends have been naughty or nice,

 

 Get ready with your order for Saturday and treat them to some of the gorgeous cling stamps on offer whilst stocks last or before Kerry comes to her senses lol!

 

 

 

 

 

 

And whilst you're there, why not treat yourself too, after all it'd be rude not to ;)

 

You'll be glad you stopped by!
