I've been awarded a Stylish Blogger Award from Donna who runs the PTD blog.
This is my first award so am really shock to have been given it, especially as I've been neglecting my blog lately.
Once Awarded this award you are supposed to:
- Thank and link back who awarded you this award
- Share 8 things about yourself
- Pay it forward to 4 other Bloggers
- Contact them bloggers and tell them about their award
8 things about me:
- My nickname is Mooney which was given to me by my lovely boyfriend
- I'd love a dog, in particular a Westie, I think they're so cute
- I love baking and cooking
- I'm an organisational freak! I have lists for everything and everything is filed away nice and neatly
- I have a degree in Health Studies but I currently work in retail
- I'm an only child and have a mild form of only child syndrome!
- I have a slight addiction to cherry coke which isn't good for the teeth
- And I will one day own a Fiat 500 who I will call Daisy!
As the bulk of my followers are on my other blog and they're the blogs I mainly read I'm going to pass it onto some beauty bloggers.
- Olivia
- Sherrie
- Lou
I've chosen these bloggers because I love reading their posts and they are all really lovely people!
So....on that note this is probably my last post before xmas so I hope everyone has a great christmas and a happy new year!

I'm a bad blogger.
As it's near christmas I'm working literally all the time so don't have much time to update my blogs. I find updating my other blog much easier as I don't have to make anything so it's quicker! But in the new year I'll be crafting away once again and will be be re-joining blog challenges.
So the challenge at PTD last week was winter wonderland. And this is what I created:
Materials used:
- White square card
- White glitter card
- Pink Gem stamped westie and sentiment
- Tartan paper (not sure where from)
- Kanban gems
- Metallic paper
- Papermania bow
- Promarkers
- Glitter glue
And this week it's the final challenge of the year with the theme of christmas and this is my creation: 
Materials used:
- Square white card
- Stamped image from pink gem
- Promarkers
- Glitter glue
- Background papers from forever friends
- Snowflake from daisy and dandelion
- Kanban gem
Good luck to everyone and I hope you all have a great christmas and a happy new year!

I seem to have got my challenge numbers mixed up abit but this one was challenge 25 (all the other challenges need to go down by 1)!
This was last weeks challenge as I'm behind on posting (naughty me!) It was a sketch design challenge and the sketch to work to is this:
And I created this:
I wanted to create a simple card with a simple colour palette (pink, black and white). And I think I did just that!

This weeks challenge at Pear Tree Designs is Bonfire Night!
I found this a hard challenge to do as I have nothing which related to bonfire night until I remembered that years and years ago I bought some Firework Spritzers and they came to the rescue and here is what I created!
I sprayed the spritzers onto black card and outlined with holographic peel offs. I then stuck star paper from the Daisy and Dandelion halloween papers from last year onto my card and placed the black mat on top. I then used monograms from American Crafts to spell 'Party'. Super simple card and you could use the template for any invitation or card.
