Three, for the price of two. Or is that two, for the price of three?


Good Morning and Happy Monday Custard Lovers.

I'm gonna try and keep this brief as this is one of my mahoosive DT Posts and I'm very late in scheduling it. So late, that it's today already! Unheard of! Euph!

Last week flew by in a blur of bugs and infections; Sweet Cheeks, and Colds; Very Understanding Hubby and then me. (This is the first time I've been able to type without dribbling onto the keyboard for days!) Sweet Cheeks has also been trying to tame Mummy, with Mojo Frying results. I had some outstanding commissions that needed to be done (three weeks ago) and luckily had ideas for them, so although it was quiet here, The Bat Cave was fully operational. It takes a lot to hold a Fluffie down. Gotta keep Fairydust Saturation high!

Anyway, brief...


At Cupcake, Minxie has chosen How Old? We would like to see birthday projects including a number on it. We're sponsored by our regular, Simon Says Stamp and this month our Icing on the Cupcake sponsor is... Well, we have three! Crafts U Love, Mo's Digital Pencil and Sew Sweet. Why? Because Cupcake will be three this month. There's a lot going on over there so stay tuned. We also have two new faces. Which reminds me about the scrummilcious Candy we have from Rainbow Studios... Pop over to Cupcake for all the details.

Papers: Pink Petticoat and Tea Time, GCD Studios

Over at Pollycraft, Paula has designed the fantabulous Sketch ^^^ up there! I loved playing with this one. We're sponsored by... Pollycraft! You really need to see the gorgeous creations from the rest of the team, so go take a peep, I won't tell anyone!


And finally, stay with me Peeps, it's time for another lovely new sketch from Jill, at Sketch n Stash, also sponsored by Simon Says Stamp.


You know the rules by now, so my old stash is, well, erm, oh yes, the Image. I've had this sweetie for years! And new stash. I couldn't possibly blow my cover...


Be sure to visit Sketch n Stash, there's a new face there too, and you can see all the scrummy cards from the rest of the girls.

Phew. That's me done. I need a cake!

Started reading the comments and saw 'using buttons for flowers' Erm? and had to scroll all the way back up to the top to see and then all the way back down to the bottom again to put my two pennyworth on.
I'm worn out now. Love the buttons used as flowers!!! Luv Muver.
