About Me

My photo
My name's Alison but for reasons too long to go into I'm known as Cockney Blonde or CB for short. I've been rubber stamping for several years but now spend most of my time either knitting or crocheting. However, with the advent of a New Year I have bitten the bullet and am tackling my usually hated pastime of sewing. I've even bought 'Sewing for Dummies' to guide me on my way. I've been with my hubby Dave for 24 years and between us we have 4 kids and 5 grandkids. We also have 2 cats and a dog, the latter features as my 'photo' image. I used to be able to blog daily but these days I struggle to blog weekly. Hopefully now we are settled into our new home in the country, I can get back to a daily (well almost) update from the room I now have to share with hubby. No more personal crafting space for me!!! Thanks to all the blogs and sites I follow for all your brilliant inspiration, and thank you to everyone who finds the time to comment on my blog.

Poppies Part 1


I expect you've guessed from the title, I have more than one poppy card to show you. This is done Clean and Simple style for the current Truly Scrumptious challenge and also to fit in with the Less Is More people.

I lurve poppies and this one from Penny Black is a beauty. I've coloured it with copics E29, R27, 29, YG63, 67 and simply used my nestabilities to matt and layer.

I hope you like it and here are the challenge links:-
