Party Girl

Hello Everyone, 
A very quick post for me today as it's my little girls birthday - 5 already, I can't believe how quick the time has gone. She's dressed up as Snow White, and sat colouring with her new pens! She was born a month early and was so small and just slept all the time, and now. . . .  .Whirlwind springs to time!!and I love her just the way she is!

My cards this week are a bit naff! I've got quite a few things going on at the minute and I'm finding it hard to concentrate on one thing at a time!!  Anyhow, I've used 'Party Girl' for this card and coloured her with my promarkers.
The background papers are the new collection from Nit Wits called 'Slice of Life'. I was lucky enough to win the challenge at Lilies Little Fairies last week and these are the papers I chose for my prize! Thank you very much LLF and Nit Wits.
The border is cut with a Spellbinders die and the butterfly is from Marianne Creatables. The flowers are WOC and I've finished off with some ribbon from my stash and a bit of bling!
Now, birthday meal to prepare before the Grandparents arrive, and then birthday cake!! 

I'd like to enter the following challenges:-
Lillies Little Fairies - Oh so Girly
Make it Monday - Anything Goes
Wild Orchid Challenge - Summer Flowers

Thanks for taking the time to visit my little blog today and for all your lovely comments. I'll be round to visit you later when the birthday girl has zonked out and gone to bed!!

This is so pretty, Lorraine...your little girl must love it. It's a perfect little girlie card.
If she is now five, does that mean she will be starting school in a few weeks?

Naff, Naff????? There's nothing naff about any of your cards, Lorraine. I have been a bit lax re checking your blog this past week or so, but catching up tonight has been an absolute delight!

Hugs, Jennifer. x
