simply-crafting: Hot Diggity Dog Goes to the Seaside

I've been a very lazy blogger these past couple of weeks. My attention has been taken up by a much bigger craft project, the final stages of the five year long renovation project that will result in a lovely little house.

The building work is finally finished and the grand clean up is well underway. I have developed a passionate hatred of plaster dust!

The first three coats of paint are on the living room walls and a fabulously smooth finish if I do say so myself. A long way to go yet but it already looks like a lovely home in dire need of decorating instead of a building site.

I'm hosting the latest Noah's Ark Challenge over on DoCrafts and it would be such bad form to skip a challenge I'm hosting so I made a point of putting my paintbrush down for one evening.

I think it did me good to focus on something different for a few hours. I'm missing my paper crafting already. I can see a bit of an obsessive come back on the horizon!

I set a theme of transport for this one so how could I not use this gorgeous stamp! It's getting on a bit now but it's still one of my firm favorites.
