Pollycraft Monday Challenge.... Furry Friends....
I'm a bit late posting this cos...... well, I forgot!!! (oops)
Over at the Pollycraft Challenge this time the theme is animals...... we want to see what you can create using your furry friends.....
Remember you don't need to use a pollycraft item to enter, but we'd love to see you create with pollycraft images so as an added bonus.... Any one who enters using an item from pollycraft will be entered into a monthly prize draw for a £25.00 voucher.......
Here is my entry..... I couldn't resist using Ginger, so I added the little Kitty from Cherry Kisses 'Kitty' so she fit the animal theme.... and added an animal themed sentiment....
Please pop over to the challenge blog to see the creations from the DT girls, and from our 2 guest designers this time JOANNE and HEIDI
Hope you get the chance to join in.....

Phew!!!
I just love this card Emma W has made using 'Robin-little friend'...pop over to the shop now to see the rest of the collection....they are 99p each, but I'm not going to offer these as a set, as they are really varied and I will probably be adding lots more random scribbles to them...
Anyway.... I'm off to do some crafting now, I'm all technologied out!!
If you get a minute pop over to the shop and check out the forum, gallery and guestbook....
I hope to be back tomorrow with some candy..... and a little news....
thanks for stopping by!!

Here I am again with this weeks Friday Freebie....now I gave you a teeny clue on Wednesday night and told you his name was Dave..... now be honest...you weren't expecting this lil fella were ya??
Well, I was having a joke with my design team, asking if 'Dave' was a suitable name.... and they all said yes! LOL! so its stuck......
Pop over to the DT and GDT blogs today.... there are some awesome 'Dave' creations.... and even a Davina!!! (you can visit all the team, using the links on the left)
I plan to have Ginger and some suprises available in the shop at some point today, I have some updates to take care of first....

A NEW Look!!!
Like the new look???
I've spent the last 2 days fiddling about with my graphics program, and trying to grapple with the html code of my blog....(like I don't have anything better to do...LOL!)
and heres......what i've come up with!
okay, so its a first attempt at anything other than basics... but I don't think its too bad!
I do have a few things to tweak still, and lots of stuff to add to the sidebars (plural...yep count em...2!!!) but that will come in time....
in the menatime, if anyone notices anything looking a bit squiffy (and you havent had a drink!) could you just drop me a line and let me know.....
