More Retro Appliance Love...

Hi there blog friends, I am hoping your weekend is sailing along beautifully. I have had a little chance this morning to finish off another set of cards featuring those beautiful stamps mentioned in my last post.





Be prepared to see a lot of cards with these stamps, I can't tear myself away from them, I just love the images, and love the fact that they are not mass produced... one very talented lady has handcarved these and attatched them to lovely pieces of sanded wood... just for me... I find that pretty awesome.

Remember to comment on my giveaway post, for your chance to win a cute card for yourself... and maybe some other creative goodies thrown in too:-) Enjoy the rest of your weekend, bye for now.

Baking time...and a little giveaway...

Hi there blog friends. I recently ordered a set of handcarved stamps from thestarbox on Etsy. They arrived today (and are just beautiful), and I couldn't wait to have a little play...




... I don't own one of those big fancy schmancy benchtop mixers, though I do admit to drooling over them every time I see them in the shops... Christmas... maybe... Dear Hubby... are you listening??? But for now, this is the closest I can get to owning one :) Do you have one? What colour is it? Leave a comment after this post about your kitchen mixer, and I'll send one lucky blog reader one of these dinky little cards in the colour of your choice. Better still, if you 'like' SweetSimplicitee on Facebook also, under your own name so it counts, plus leave a comment on the blog, you'll get 2 entries. I'll draw a winner next Thursday, so be sure to check back.

Thanks for stopping by, see you again soon.

EDITED TO ADD: Giveaway now closed, thankyou to the lovely ladies who left me a litle blog love, you will each be receiving a little package from me in the mail:)... and Hot Fudge... I will catch you soon:)

{dreaming}

Hello blog friends, we are back from a little change of scenery, and dreaming about how life would be if we could pack up our little family and enjoy this lifestyle permanently...





...one has to dream, right?
Thanks for stopping by.

Edited to add: I am pretty excited that one of my creations has been handpicked by the awesome team over at MadeIt to appear on the front page today - check it out here

Spotty

Hi there Blog Friends. I am so excited that it is the weekend, school holidays are beautiful, but the weekend when Dear Hubby gets to share it with us too is simply divine.

I have a quick share today of some new card designs that have been floating around in my head, using some more gorgeous Ocotber Afternoon papers...







...I am simply in with this paper, it is just too cute! I added some swiss dots texture to the front too, just to give it a little something extra.

Thankyou for stopping by, enjoy your weekend wherever it takes you.
