Christmas has arrived at the Hut.

Wow - Its been busy busy at the Hut - Finally managed to get the Christmas tree up and decorated. Been so manic completing orders Tree has been sat there naked for days!

Many new Monkeys have been rehomed, frames posted and cards customised. I have really loved making the cards. Its a nice change from the Monkeys but still a few of them to do so better crack on. But I think tonight I will concentrate on sorting out my Christmas - Pressies to wrap next... oh and the small matter of making all my family Christmas cards!! Funny how they seem to be left till last when they are the most important!!

Hope your all getting festive... I think I need a Mulled Wine to motivate me... (:(|)x

Guide Monkey

Hey All! Popping into the Hut blog to show you picutres of this special Guide Monkey that was made for an order last week.
Christmas card collection is building well but just not enough hours in a day at the moment. Loads of Monkey orders coming in for Christmas - so much so that I might have to start saying "NO" and I hate doing that! Can't believe its less that two months till Christmas... Ha! I'll leave you all with that slightly panicing thought and go get busy instead of chatting and facebook surfing. (Anyone else find it a bit addictive??)
Hope you all have a good (And I have a productive..) week. (:(|)x

Hello! Two posts in a matter of days... have I turned over a new leaf?? I'm dog sitting for Bertie - our family dog this week so can't do much creating.

 Instead I thought I'd do another update with a  picture of a frame I have made recently as it has now been handed over and so won't ruin the surprise.

Its made with a Martha Stewart Bunny punch and My Minds eye papers. It is a triple layered frame, personalised with a new baby's name, weight and date of birth. Please e-mail me if you would like something similar. I can do them in many different shapes or colour schemes. Have a look at the gallery on facebook. 

All for now... got a pooch to walk before bed. (:(|)x

 

Hello All!
I have recently re-ignited my love of card making so have jiggled around with the blog, then I can post about more than just the Monkeys. Hope you all approve! I found I need a blog to be able to enter challenges and get my cards out there for people to see.

So .... here is one of my latest cards and yep it is for Christmas.... Only 70 sleeps to go you know?! But its also pink & green so matches the blog!

The image is from the great collection of stamps at Some Odd Girl. I have become a bit of an addict to there characters since I discovered them. The greeting is from Craftworks Cards and the papers are Doodlebug - another company I am a little bit obsessed with. I love all the bright colours and patterns.

 

 

And here is the blue version! I've also run the background through my Sizzix machine with a Cuttlebug Snowflake embossing folder.

So I will try to post more often now and use the blog better. Maybe even get some comments going and loads of the badges I see on all blogs I look at.

Gosh  - Its Feb 2012!!! Just popped in to say Hello and try to sort out my problem with Flickr - For some reason beyond my technical skills it can't get it to link to my Flickr account like it used to! Sadly you can't all see my pictures of the Monkeys or frames. Just don't get it!! And I will be honest with you - it is driving me mad!!! ARGHHHHHH!

So I will just have to post you some new piccies here instead.... lets see if these work....

 YIPPEE.... Still the issue with Flickr to sort but at least you get to see some latest creations. Who thinks Monkey above needs white eyes? You can barely see them being black on black... maybe a small alteration is required.

Speak soon people. (:(|)x
