I See A Little Silloheute-a Of A....

 
 
Flower.


And A Fairy.
 

 
I LOVE playing with silloheutes. Even though I struggle to spell the word. Equally I love playing with chalk. So its quite lucky that the two work together so well.
 
Both of todays cards have been made using decorative chalks, and kanban stamps, but I have to say I have the most love for the flower card. If you happen to fall in love with either of these, then they are available to purchase over at www.craftylillel.co.uk. Feel free to pop on over.
 
On another note, i'm thinking about entering my first blog challenge now that the blog is up and running. I'll let you know when I take the plunge, but for now- wish me luck.

It's A Website Kinda Night

This evening has seen me FINALLY get back around to editing and updating my website.
 
Having finally found a way to resize multiple numbers of photos at once, I've spent a good couple of hours listing all my new cards i've made during my 30 card challenge, and stripping everything else off. By no stretch of imagination is my website perfect, I am a bit of a ludite after all, but i've taken the first steps to getting in going again!
 
If anyone wants to take a look, the address is www.craftylillel.co.uk. I'd be more then happy for you to leave me some feedback about it on here too. Its an ecommerce website too- so all of my cards are available to buy through there at the click of a button!
 
Can you tell it hasn't been as sunny here today as it was over the weekend? I've actually been productive today!
 
Heres a few photos of the cards I've added too, and I'll leave you with them.

A Challenge.

My facebook page, www.facebook.com/craftylillel currently has barely any stock.
 
I'm not complaining mind. I just really need to get my butt back into gear, and get making again. I set myself the challenge of making 30 cards over the weekend.
 
And then the sun came out.
And it was my Mum's birthday.
And we went for a BBQ.
And hubby has his last league game for his football team.
And then we had another mini BBQ.
 
Anyone else think this might not have been the right weekend to set myself that challenge?
 
Having said all of that, I did actually get SOME made. And did a LOT of colouring of images ready to be made into cards, so hopefully I will hit the 30 tomorrow or Tuesday. I don't really have any choice as I have an event at the weekend and need to have stock for it, after taking a lot of what I had to Woodston Nursery for them to stock. Fingers crossed they will sell steadily there for me.
 
But keep an eye out for the photos over the next few days- theres a lovely mix of things for me to add that I can't wait to share with you all.
 
I do have to say though- it's been FAB to see the sun finally!
 
Hope you've all had as good a weekend as I have.
