Here I was thinking I would have all the time in the world, once I became a Mum, but clearly I wasn't thinking straight! I now have two little munchkins and between them, part time work, full time running the house and managing renovations, I rarely seem to find alone, guilt free time in my craft room (unless it's late at night).<br />
<br />
Anyway, here is my latest... and probably the only card I have created in months... for my mother in law for mother's day.<br />

This is my first attempt at 'no lines' colouring using a Tiddly Inks stamp from the <a href="http://www.tiddlyinks.com/beach-babe-clear-stamp-set-3x4/">Beach Babe</a> clear stamp set. I used a Memento ink called Desert Sand and coloured with copics.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1010.photobucket.com/albums/af226/jrmorawitz/Crafts/Tiddly%20Inks/August082.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i1010.photobucket.com/albums/af226/jrmorawitz/Crafts/Tiddly%20Inks/August082.jpg" height="305" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I'm not sure that my colours are spot on, but I would like to enter this card into the current <a href="http://www.tiddlyinkschallenge.blogspot.co.nz/2014/09/challenge-140-pop-of-color.html">Pop of Colour</a> challenge at Tiddly Inks.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
The papers are all scraps from my stash (Crate Paper I think) and the starfish and icecream cone are rub-ons. The sentiment stamp is from LOTV.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
That's pretty much it from me... life is trucking along nicely for us. I'm about 7 months pregnant now and I feel absolutely huge... way bigger than last time. I'm not sure I can get any bigger and I still have a couple of months to go! The bubba in my tummy is very active and keeps me awake at night... I hope that's not a sign of things to come! Lilian continues to delight us and is sleeping really well thankfully (cross fingers and touch wood that continues). Tyron is very busy with work. We are sort of house hunting to accommodate our expanding family, but can't find anything we like that is within budget at the moment. House prices in Auckland (and particularly on the Shore) are out of control!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Hope you are all well!</div>

Oops so I haven't posted in a while... does anyone else find it takes quite a bit of time to upload photos and write a blog post or is it just me? I have quite a few cards to post now, so I had better get posting!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Here's one I made recently for the current challenge on the SOG facebook page which is to use your favourite SOG image. This week my favourite image is <a href="http://www.someoddgirl.com/index.php/digital/fairies/giggle-fairy-detail">Giggle Fairy</a>, next week it might change though... there are just so many fab images to choose from!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1010.photobucket.com/albums/af226/jrmorawitz/Crafts/Some%20Odd%20Girl/August001.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i1010.photobucket.com/albums/af226/jrmorawitz/Crafts/Some%20Odd%20Girl/August001.jpg" height="315" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Isn't she sweet? I'm sure she's got a fun secret... maybe she just made a cheeky birthday wish?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
On another note, I finally located my copic opaque white only to find that it had completely dried up in the last year and a half and I had to throw it in the bin. After a few aborted attempts to purchase the new copic opaque white with the brush, I finally decided to purchase a Molotow white pen (following a discussion on white pens on the Kit and Clowder facebook page) and I must say it is fabulous! I'm very please with it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Image coloured with copics, papers from my stash, sentiments are SRM stickers and the charm is from my stash.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Have a lovely week!</div>

Hello! I hope it's going to be a great weekend for everyone! I'm finally recovering from a nasty sore throat and flu-like virus... so glad to be coming out the other side of it! I'm just so relieved that Ty and Lilian didn't catch it. Phew!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So I saw that the latest challenge up at <a href="http://www.tiddlyinkschallenge.blogspot.co.nz/2014/07/challenge-137-tiny-creations-or-atc.html">Tiddly Inks</a> is to make a tiny creation (or ATC) and I couldn't resist making some Tiddly-licious pendants...</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1010.photobucket.com/albums/af226/jrmorawitz/Crafts/Tiddly%20Inks/July047.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i1010.photobucket.com/albums/af226/jrmorawitz/Crafts/Tiddly%20Inks/July047.jpg" height="320" width="294" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Each pendant is 1 inch square... a little bit fiddly, but such fun to make! I'm not sure what I'm going to do with them now though :) I have coloured them with copics and added a touch of glitter. Super fun cuteness!</div>

Hi there! I hope everyone is having a great week! We had a fine day today (not a common occurrence in Auckland in winter) and I was hoping to get lots of washing done, however my washing machine fizzled out on the second load... doh. Thankfully my amazing husband fixed it this evening when he came home from work... something to do with the drain pump I think. I'm so relieved... the poor machine lives to wash another day! I bet it just can't wait to wash the load of dirty nappies I have waiting for it!</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Anyway, enough of my domestic lows and highs... I have another card to share today that I made for the current challenge at <a href="http://littlemissmuffetchallenges.blogspot.co.nz/">Little Miss Muffet Stamps</a> which is <a href="http://littlemissmuffetchallenges.blogspot.co.nz/2014/07/challenge-90-anything-goes.html">Anything Goes</a>. I used <a href="https://littlemissmuffetstamps.3dcartstores.com/Summer-Monkey_p_875.html">Summer Monkey</a> for my card today which is an oldie but a goodie from Barbara. On a side note, have you seen how many amazing stamps there are in the LMM store now? I was blown away when I had a look just now. Admittedly it has been a while since I looked, but there are just so many to choose from!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Here's my card:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1010.photobucket.com/albums/af226/jrmorawitz/Crafts/Little%20Miss%20Muffet%20Stamps/July002.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i1010.photobucket.com/albums/af226/jrmorawitz/Crafts/Little%20Miss%20Muffet%20Stamps/July002.jpg" height="312" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Anyway, off to bed early for me... I feel so exhausted lately! It could be because our little miss has suddenly started waking up really early, or it could be my pregnancy rhinitis keeping me awake at night or it could just be that general difficulty sleeping while pregnant thing... who knows?! Hopefully a few early nights will cure it though.</div>

Two posts in a week... I'm on a roll!<br />
<br />
Lilian is about to wake up any minute, so I'll keep this one brief... Here's a card I made for the current Wings and things challenge on the <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/SomeOddGirlCommunity/?fref=ts">Some Odd Girl Facebook page</a>. I can't find this gorgeous wee fairy in the shop at the moment, so I'm not sure if she has been retired or if I just had a boy look. The bird is from a clear stamp set called <a href="http://www.someoddgirl.com/index.php/clearstamps/gwen-in-bloom-detail">Gwen in Bloom</a>.<br />
<br />
I had so much trouble with my skin colouring markers on this one... I totally ruined her arms and I'm so disappointed. I just read on the Kit and Clowder Facebook group about some tips to stop that happening (eg wiping the sides of the brush nib before closing the cap), so I'm going to implement them in my colouring time tonight. I also can't seem to find my copic opaque white anywhere, so no highlights on her eyes until I find it...<br />

Lilian has been keeping me pretty busy and her bedroom is right next to my craft room so I have had very little time to make cards for the last couple of years. I never realised how sacred nap times would be until I had a baby of my own and now another one on the way! I finally decided I would have to just make little bits of time to do little bits of crafting... I do feel a bit like I've forgotten how to colour and make cards though, so bear with me. Here's one of my first attempts using a Tiddly Inks image entitled <a href="http://www.tiddlyinks.com/wryn-and-mo-love-you-most/">Wryn and Mo - Love you Most</a> for the current BFF challenge at Tiddly Inks.<br />

Hello! Long time no see.... sorry. I have other priorities in my life right now. Our little girl arrived two weeks early on 3.3.2013, a great date for a birthday! She weighed 6lb 4oz, but has been feeding well and regained her birth weight in the first week. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1010.photobucket.com/albums/af226/jrmorawitz/Lilian%20Paige%20Morawitz/Lilian020.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://i1010.photobucket.com/albums/af226/jrmorawitz/Lilian%20Paige%20Morawitz/Lilian020.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I had a relatively uneventful pregnancy (apart from the move from Greece back to NZ and the fixing up of our house after it had been rented out for 7 years) but the midwife was a bit worried about Lilian's growth rate, so I was getting ultrasounds every second week for the last few months. It turns out that it was a good thing that she decided to come early as there was a true knot in her cord that had not yet pulled tight thankfully and my placenta was not very big.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Me ready to go in for the induction...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1010.photobucket.com/albums/af226/jrmorawitz/Lilian%20Paige%20Morawitz/Readytogotothehospital.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://i1010.photobucket.com/albums/af226/jrmorawitz/Lilian%20Paige%20Morawitz/Readytogotothehospital.jpg" width="150" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
My husband and I decided to use hypnobirthing as our method of birthing and I am pleased to report that it worked out really well for us and I didn't have to have any pain relief in spite of having to have an induction (due to my waters breaking) and be on a syntocin drip all day on the Sunday. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We are all doing really well and Lilian is eating and sleeping nicely and not crying much at all. She seems like a very contented wee baby which is nice.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I haven't done any crafting since we have been back in NZ other than to make some adjustable width 'elephant ears' for Lilian's car seat capsule...</div>

Hiya! It's been a while, but my head is not really in the right space for blogging right now. I am currently struggling through my final project for the Advanced Class I just took from <a href="http://www.createdfromcolor.com/">Created From Color</a> run by <a href="http://melissamade2.blogspot.gr/">Melissa</a> and <a href="http://www.theoddgirl.com/">Kristy</a> so that I can finally start to pack up my craft desk... only 3 more weeks left in Greece!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The class was fantastic and I learned a lot of new skills. I highly recommend it to anyone who has completed the Basic Course and wishes to move onto more advanced techniques like radial and single source light as well as reflections and colouring to show distance. I only wish I had devoted a bit more time to it and had been in the right frame of mind.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Here are a couple of my completed projects...</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

The papers I have used are from Hambly Screenprints and Basic Grey. The sentiment is a sticker from SRM and the crystals are from Prima. I coloured Tobie with copics and kept the card pretty simple really! The starburst behind Tobie was cut with my Slice machine. </div>

Hiya Peoples! I'm so sorry for my very sporadic posting... I actually have some news! My husband and I are expecting our very first baby in March next year and things are going to a little bit hectic for us for a while.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As well as the normal pregnancy hormones that have completely stolen my mojo, we are also pretty busy with work and will be until we finish up here in Greece in November. Then we have to find a way to move our stuff back to NZ, buy a house in NZ, cars, baby stuff and find a job for my husband all before March! It's a bit of a stressful but happy time for us. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So now you know... that's why I haven't been posting! I'm finishing up on all my design teams now or shortly and will likely continue to only post sporadically for a while as my life takes a new direction. I'll definitely update with some baby pictures in March though!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So... once again I don't have a card to share for Little Miss Muffet Stamps today, but I did want to let you know that there is an awesome new release over on <a href="http://littlemissmuffetchallenges.blogspot.gr/">the challenge blog today</a> as well as a <a href="http://littlemissmuffetchallenges.blogspot.gr/2012/09/zoe-hatter.html">fabulous freebie</a> in honour of Zoe from Make it Crafty's birthday! Pop on over and check out what all the excitement is about!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I'll be back next week with some Some Odd Girl stuff!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ciao!</div>

It's our final day of New Releases this week at Some Odd Girl and today we have a new outfit from Kaylee's closet to share with you! Check out Kaylee's Closet <a href="http://www.someoddgirl.com/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=productdetails&virtuemart_product_id=353&virtuemart_category_id=16&Itemid=119">Winter Warmth</a> over <a href="http://www.someoddgirlblog.com/">HERE</a> on the Some Odd Girl blog.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Here's my card:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1010.photobucket.com/albums/af226/jrmorawitz/Crafts/Some%20Odd%20Girl/Crafts005-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://i1010.photobucket.com/albums/af226/jrmorawitz/Crafts/Some%20Odd%20Girl/Crafts005-2.jpg" width="340" /></a></div>

Isn't she great?! She's just like the paper dolls I used to have! I love her tres chic mix and match outfits! I have used the base Kaylee from Kaylee's Closet, then stamped her jacket separately and layered it over the top of Kaylee's body. I stamped the boots twice... once on white card and once on DP, then I cut the DP sections I wanted and adhered them over the coloured card pieces. I find my little Xyron very handy for adding adhesive to the smaller pieces.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
The papers I have used are from my Christmas Stash, mainly October Afternoon I think. The ribbon is from The Ribbon Girl and the charm is from my stash. The main sentiment is from the Winter Friends clear stamp set that was showcased earlier this week. The smaller sentiment comes with the Winter Warmth set I have coloured most of Kaylee with copics and paper pieced her boots. I added glasses from the main <a href="http://www.someoddgirl.com/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=productdetails&virtuemart_product_id=333&virtuemart_category_id=18&Itemid=138">Kaylee's Closet se</a>t and I added Glossy Accents to them.</div>

Here's a close-up:</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Here's mine:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1010.photobucket.com/albums/af226/jrmorawitz/Crafts/Some%20Odd%20Girl/Crafts304.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="356" src="http://i1010.photobucket.com/albums/af226/jrmorawitz/Crafts/Some%20Odd%20Girl/Crafts304.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Isn't she gorgeous?! I love her pose. I have coloured Gwen with copics and added Stickles to her halo. The papers and charms are from my stash and the ribbon is from The Ribbon Girl. The button is by Doodlebug Designs. The sentiment and banner are part of the Angel Gwen clear stamp set and I cut the angel wings and heart with my Slice machine.</div>

Another cutie from Kristy! The papers I have used are from my Christmas Stash (probably October Afternoon and Cosmo Cricket, maybe Crate Paper too). The ribbon is from The Ribbon Girl and the ornament shapes were cut with my Slice machine. </div>

Hi There! Yep, I'm late again... our long working weekend went longer than expected and I ran out of oomph to post this last night... so while we are sitting here in the bay in Loutraki in a howling gale (which kept us awake most of the night) waiting to get through the Korinth canal, I thought I had better get caught up! We have new releases being showcased this week at <a href="http://www.someoddgirlblog.com/">Some Odd Girl</a>!!! Did you see them yet? Head on over and check them out... they're so cute.</div>

Aren't they ca-ute?! I love their chubby little faces : ) I paper pieced the bow tie, tie and hat using papers from Cosmo Cricket. The rest of the papers are from October Afternoon I think. The ribbon is from The Ribbon Girl and the charm is from my stash. I cut the star tag using my Slice machine and used one of the sentiments that comes with the <a href="http://www.someoddgirl.com/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&view=productdetails&virtuemart_product_id=356&virtuemart_category_id=16&Itemid=119">Winter Friends</a> set.</div>

Hiya! I bet you weren't expecting a post from me today! Well I have a few Tiddly Inks cards I made last month that I still haven't shared here yet, so I thought I had better hop to it! To tell you the truth I'm in a bit of crafting rut (not to mention being too busy at work) and haven't made anything new for a month or so! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So here's a card I made last month for the the clear stamp release at Tiddly Inks...</div>

Isn't she cute?! The stamp set comes with two sentiments (I have used one here) and the little flower pot as well. The papers I have used are from my stash and the ribbon is from the Ribbon Girl. I crocheted the flower myself and the brad is from my stash. </div>

Hello again! Two days in a row! I feel very industrious posting while I am working so hard and taking a mini DT break! If I had been more organised I could have scheduled all these posts, but never mind.</div>

For once I chose my papers before I started colouring... I think it helps for more complicated images. The papers are a mixture from Crate Paper and Little Yellow Bicycle. The flowers and gems are from Wild Orchid Crafts. The charm is from my stash, the sentiment is a stamp from LOTV and the ribbon is from The Ribbon Girl.</div>
