Crafty Comeback!!

Well here is this mornings creation, I am in love with Magnolia stamps, can't get enough of them, we had a good old stamp swop at Lou's house last night, everyone stamped up a few of my collection and Carol brought her collection, now we've all got loads to crack on with colouring in!!!
I coloured this one using Stampin Up Watercolour Crayons and an SU Blender pen, they are both ab fab. Card is Whisper white and Pale Plum - Stampin Up and the DP is American Crafts. I used Louise's nestabilities, some SU punches and a stamp from the Circle of Friendship collection.
I like how Louise includes the supplies that she uses in the pictures of her creations, so I thought I'd give it a go!! Need a bit of practice though I think!! Will have to get some batteries for the camera before I practice because I borrowed the ones out of the Sky remote so I had to rush to take the pic so I could get the batteries back in otherwise it resets itself and you have to re-enter the codes and stuff!!!
I also like how a lady on one of the blogs that I stalk puts on a close up of the focus of her card, I did try to do this but I just got alot of glare, some more practice required here too one thinks!!!

Update!

Hi there, it's been a while since I posted on my blog, as you've probably read it's not been a particularly nice time for our family recently. We lost my Great Uncle on my Dads side at the end of May, then we lost my Grandad middle of June which was an extremely sad time then on Thursday morning this week another Great Uncle on my mums side passed away. I can't believe it, I hope the deaths have stopped now, please stop taking all of the good ones away!!!

Well on a lighter note myself and my crafting buddies had a get together at Lou's last night, I didn't leave until midnight, got to bed at 1am and then the little one had me up at 8 o'clock which usually would be a lovely time, but today i prayed for an after 9 and it didn't happen!!!

So my crafty flair has returned, I'll post this mornings creation in a min!!!!
