Crafty Monkey and a Cheeky Monkey

This is the card I have made for this weeks Crafty Monkey challenge . I got this stamp for my birthday but this is the first time I have used it, I really like it as she is so pretty and I loved colouring her in, I have been practising lots with my colouring in and I am really pleased with how she looks. I used some of the striped paper as a ribbon and my mams says it was a really good idea and she is going to use that idea on her cards :) she also liked where I put my big flower so I think she will be probably using that idea to...he he!

I got a lovely surprise on Friday, I got to take Mich the cheeky monkey home from school to spend the weekend with us. I am so excited about this because I love Mich so much so have been wanting him to come to my home for a long long time. You only get to take Mich home if you have worked extra hard at school and I got a certificate with him what I can keep. We have done lots of things together, we made cakes yesterday and we went for a walk but he was a bit tired when we got home so he went for a sleep with my cat. I really dont want to take Mich back to school on Tuesday because I love him so much but my mam says that hopefully he will be able to visit again soon.

Crafty Monkey Challenge 19

This weeks Crafty Monkeys Challenge is "One for the girls!". I have made this card using a pollycraft stamp I got for my birthday and some of the papers I got to, the flowers were sent to me in a RAK. I'm going to give this card to my mam on her birthday because she loves it.

The other night we were looking after my aunties new kitten.......Manson........he is so cute, I wish we could keep him. Cleo was a bit unsure of him at first but it didnt take long before he was looking after him to. I made a bed for him with my dolls things but he was so small we could hardly find him :)

Thanks for stopping by, have a fab day

Crafty Monkey's Challenge - Sketch

I was of school yesterday because I wasnt feeling very well so we did some card making to cheer me up. I made a card for the crafty monkeys challenge using some more of my craft things I got for my birthday. This card was a little tricky to make so my mam helped me with it, dont think I will be making any more decoupage cards I would rather colour the pictures in.

I have received another brilliant award this time its from Pamela, thank you so much Pamela you made my day, I now have to pass it on to ten people but I am going to pass it on to every one who visits my blog and leaves me lovely comments because you really make me smile when i read them. :)

I'm Back !!!!

Hi everyone sorry I haven't been blogging for such a long time just its been really busy here, with school and Christmas! I am really enjoying school and have made lots of friends now, I am also starting to be able to read and write which I am really loving, so wont be long before I wont need my mam to help me do my blog he he!! I had a lovely Christmas, I got a new computer, a digital camera, and lots of other toys plus some great new craft stuff. At school we did a Christmas performance and i was a clown, I was a little bit shy doing it and didn't like wearing face paints but it was ok in the end. We also had a Christmas party and I had my new party dress on and Santa came, it was so great i cant wait for next year. So with all that there hasn't been much time for crafting!

Last Tuesday my big cousin Steven became a daddy, and i got another baby cousin, they have called him Marc he is so cute. I wanted to make a card using my new craft stuff to tell him i love him. I'm going to enter this into the crafty monkeys challenge as that is to make something using something you got for Christmas. I have also took a photo of the inside of the card so you can see my writing! I hope you like them both :)
