Tag your it challenge 51-cute and cuddly

eeeeh where's me week gone??? I spent a couple of days with DG over the weekend and a couple of days with me pal Chriss crafting and before ye know it I've missed a whole week of blogging again.
Going to visit Chriss was a necessity though... as my bestest friend arranged a long needed visit to the shhhhhhh Dentist... for me and had to come with me to make sure I didn't do a runner as I've done so many times in the past... without having my treatment!!!
I only had to have a check up this time but OMG the fear.... tears and brow mopping along with the deepest of panic filled breaths were the order of the day... BUT I managed to stay in the chair long enough to have a check up thanks to the fact that Chriss sat in the room with me... (thank you me bestest pal mmmwhaaaa) she also promised me a lolly if I was a good girl...rofl
I didn't get the lolly cos I cried...shame on me... but she did buy me a breakfast bun :D
So ordeal over till the next time.... phew!! Got a few weeks before the next visit... hope Chriss doesn't leave the country beforehand...lol

So onto this weeks TYI challenge - cute and cuddly. A bit of sketching with this one to make a basket for me kittens...awwww I love them... and some paw prints for the end tags. I used BasicGrey sultry papers for the basket,tags and basket lining.
The kittens stamp is from Crafty Individuals and has the lovely little flowers for the Kittys to sit on :D
The sentiment is cut from one of Chriss' papers so not sure which it was.
Have a fab evening all
Back tomorrow with some more crafty bits.
hugs

Ready, Steady, Cook... DCM challenge

Errrrm... you can stop holding your breath cos I ain't cookin'... can't cook, won't cook is more normal for me. Gimme a microwave any day of the week... can't even boil an egg properly no matter how I try, I've used the clock... bought a timer etc and still they don't come out right so I scramble them instead...lol

So you are saved from pics of charred foodies cos it's Kathy's turn to set The Daring Cardmakers challenge ... 'Ready, Steady, Cook and the recipe :-

3 Different papers
At least 1 piece of chipboard
At least 1 button
At least 1 piece of ribbon
and
1 optional extra of your choice
I had a lot of fun with this one and a happy accident too :D I used 3 BasicGrey papers from the Sultry range....

An outside piece from a Riff Raff Designs chipboard butterfly with paper, ribbon and a button for our fluttery friend
and my happy accident was that, as I inked the edge of my card I slipped... so I ended up creating a wood effect round the edges with felt tip pen... to cover it up :D

Then after layering the flowery paper down the side I added my optional extra..... yeah you guessed it.......
'BLING'... lol
Have a great day all
hugs
