Hello Everyone,
I know my visits and blogging is very hit and miss just lately. School finished last Friday and Emma had cricket every day last week! She is playing again tomorrow! It's taking me days to make one card...10 minutes here and there!
I have used the adorable 'Rosie Ballet' for today's card, and you can find her in her new home over at Lili of the Valley.
I've coloured her with promarkers and the background papers are from Craftwork cards. I've used a die namics flower die and a sentiment stamp from DigiStamp Boutique.
I'd like to enter the following challenges:-
Simon Says Stamp - Anything Goes
Passion for Promarkers - Dies or punches
Cute Card Thursday - To Cute
Thanks for taking the time to visit my little blog, and for all your comments and encouragement.

I have used one of the beautiful little mermaids for today's card.
