1,2,3 ......ATC.....1,2,3,4 then I made a puckle more.

I was clearing up after crafting last night and as I sorting all my offcuts & scraps
I came across 2 tags I had forgotten about.



And used up some of the left overs from the breast cancer cards I had made for this one.

I love the pink make a wish ribbon, its very sweet.

I have only made one ATC before.... thought they would be a bit fiddly
but am quiet please with these three wee offerings.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Then the ATC bug seemed to have had a wee nip at me,
cause instead of doing the house work that I was ment to


I ended up with these ....









Do they count as a set?
Do I number them 1 of 4 etc?
I tried out a new glitter on the peace Angels wings
but prefer the crystal coloured one more for wings.
I also think I need to put something else on the
bottom of the white pearly card on the Peace , love & Joy stamp

but not sure what ...... Any suggestions?

oh and a puckle is a word my FIL uses to describe a wee drop.

A small amount....a few.

He will ask you a question like.........

"Can you feed a puckle of sheep for me".....this is usually a few sheep.....
that are dotted all around the croft....
in a few differnt places.....

"and you will need a hammer"

WTF for?

"well ......once you cross the burn and climb the hill to feed the puckle o' sheep
you can fix the fence on your way over there......"

challenges & blog candy !

Thankfully I had a bit more oomph today and managed a few cards for some friends,
and two of them are also perfect for challenges.


This one is as a thinking of you after your op card!





This card was made using a template that Emma sent me...



As you probably know, October is Breast cancer awareness month.
It is likely that we all have someone we know or love or maybe even yourself
who has had a battle or scare with breast cancer.

The card is also for a friend,
I have made a few like this to send to some girlie mates..
just to say hello and remind them to squish their boobs!

Check out Breast Cancer blog candy here at Slumber Cards!

I am going to enter it the This Thursday its all about,
because it is to do something from your heart....

and this is something I feel passionate about,

I am sending similar cards to people who I love ....

and all the time I was making it I was reminded about women in my life
who I care about who are fighting breast cancer or who sadly have lost their battles
with breast cancer.....


Helen, Fiona, Alison, Jean,
to all the ladies who I had the pleasure knowing while nursing
them during their battle with this awful disease...




  • Some facts.....
  • More people are being diagnosed with breast cancer, but survival rates are improving all the time.
  • Around 46,000 people are diagnosed with breast cancer each year - that’s one person every 12 minutes

  • Breast cancer also affects men, but it is rare, around 300 men are diagnosed each year

Be Breast Aware !

*sigh*

I also made this card for a friend, just as a thinking of you card.

I am entering it in Cute Card Thursday as its challenge is Autumn ,

I am loving the colours of Autumn so enjoyed making this card.


It is also made using a sketch from papertake weekly challenge.


On a much much lighter note.......

Poor poppy ended up in such a mess while trying to get the
yogurt out of the corners of the pot!!








hope you are all well,


much love Teen xxx
