Smash Your Stash-Postal

 Morning and as it's the last Saturday of the month time for the Smash Your Stash journal challenge with my blogging friend Vicki at Stamped Smiles. Hope you will check her brilliant blog out too.The prompt this month is "Postal" but I went slighty off pist with travel too lol.The background was just a mop up page -always use a journal page for mop ups, I added a postcard I had previously made  using stamps from an old Rubber Stampede set,some of the stamps fussy cut and added.

The digi postcards I found in the bottom of a little drawer after a declutter this week and getting rid of my craft desk and a load of craft stuff to the craft club at the local school my youngest Son and then his Daughters went to.I'm not giving up crafting just I can't be going up and down the stairs,so had a declutter on computer desk and brought main stuff downstairs so desk no longer needed and it was in our bedroom----so gone! Anyway I digress lol.Finally I added some old stamps which I found too so more stash smashed!!!

Ghost Riders in the Sky

 Morning- 2years maybe 3yrs I bought a beautiful paper pad -Bittersweet Heights from CraftOclock and I have only usd one sheetbecause I hate the thought of covering them up.SO---I made an 8" square(because thats the size of the sheets)using one full sheet then tearing pieces of another one to make what I hope is a Gothic looking scene,I distressed the torn edges with DI ---and nothing more to add!Hope you like it.The colours are actually slightly darker but I took loads of pics and this was the best one.

Little Football Boxes

 Morning,(well it was when I started the post lol)I made these little boxes following a tutorial from Pinky,although hers are a lot nicer than mine lol.I made them for my Grandsons who are both play football for their teams every Sunday and doing brilliantly.They are just the right size for a chocolate bunny wrapped in a £5 for them to buy an Easter egg.

The b.paper is from Paper Favourites The die-cut set I bought off a FB declutter site,colouring the football and shorts with a promarker,I tried to colour the shirts like the ones they play in and failed miserably lol so cut them out of a smooshed snippet I found.

UPDATE---Noah(8yrs next month) the team has just won their first league 1 game 5-3, he scored one  goal and set up three-played brilliantly today Son said.
