Good Morning Everyone,
I'm sorry I've been a bad blogger over the last few days. My cold seamed to get worse and now the kids have come down with high temperatures and bad coughs!! I can't wait for half term, just a few days to chill out!
I've used 'Aimi with Lantern' from Lili of the Valley for today's card.
I've coloured her with promarkers and the background papers are from First Edition.
I've used a MB Cherry Blossom die, a Marianne Creatables fence die and a Cheery Lyn corner die.
I'd like to enter the following challenges:-
LOTV Ideas to Inspire - Name that Tune : David Bowie - China Girl
I'd also like to join in with Brenda's 5th Blogaversary celebrations - My favourite crafting items are my promarkers and my little cuttlebug! (not to mention Lili of the Valley andd Penny Black Stamps!! lol)
Thanks for taking the time to visit me today and for all your lovely comments and encouragement.

Hello Everyone,
Thank you for all your 'Get Well' wishes. I still have a hacking cough but I do feel a bit more human! Emma came down with the same bug on Wednesday, so she's had a couple of days off school too.
I've used Daisy Swing from Penny Black for today's card.
I've coloured him with promarkers and flexmarkers. The background papers are from First Edition.
I've used a Die Namics Plentiful Petals die, a MB pipi butterfly die and a MB Lavish Branch die.
The ribbon and pearls are from my stash and the sentiment tags are from Lili of the Valley. I added lots of glitter to the flower die and to the daisy swing flowers but the photo doesn't seem to show the sparkle very well.
I'd like to enter the following challenges:-
Penny Black Saturday Challenge -For Someone Special (This is going to my niece)
Penny Black and More - Make it Sparkle

Thanks for taking the time to visit my little blog today and for all your lovely comments. Have a lovely weekend.

Good Afternoon Everyone,
It's just a quick post for me today. I'm full of cold and have absolutely no energy or mojo to sit and make a card. Also the fact that my nose is running every time I put my head down to colour....mmm...nice!
I found this one sitting in my 'not yet blogged' file. I used one of the very cute Strawberry Kisses stamps from Crafter's Companion. It's called Flower Power.
I've coloured her with promarkers (it takes me ages to colour a plant pot!) and the background paper is from K and Company.
I added a few drops of liquid pears to the flower. The sentiment tags are from Lili of the Valley and the ribbon is from my stash.
I'd like to enter the following challenges:-
Crafters Companion - Clean and Simple
Loves Rubber Stamps - Anything Goes
