Friday 21 May 2010

Oh happy day everyone! It's Friday and looking forward to a glorious sunshiny weekend, gardens are now filling with blooms, such wonderful colours. Yesterday I missed Faith's challenge, this digi image is from Designed 2 Delight digital Stamps, papers from The Creative Cottage Home sweet Home,sentiment from Simon says stamps, made my own flowers for Fab n Funky #24, entry for Pollycraft #44 Summer Blooms, Stampin for the weekend #39 Post Pals, what a lovely theme, as you can see in my side bar is the link and i post to these very brave children frequently, they really do appreciate cards and items sent to them. I received a lovley thankyou card from Laura who is taking her GCSE exams and doing a lot of hard work in the midst of all the pain and suffering she is going through so if you can spare a card please do...we don't sometimes realise how little our pain is until you read the posts on the site. I have come away with tears in my eyes, I really am a softie at heart. So on with my card which will go to Poppy H, Simon Says Stamps is Tent card with charms but I've not made an aperture in the middle so i hope it still counts (butterfly charm added onto ribbon bow), followed the sketch from Everybody Art #91, Sew many Challenges #15 is Anything Goes and Just Cute Bears #17 is recipe: 3 brads, 2 papers, 1 ribbon. Decoupaged the flower using glitter pen, no glamour dust/glitter on this one as all too often children in pain can be irritable and the last thing i would want to do is make it any uncomfortable than it already is,but I hope Poppy will like it nevertheless. Wishing everyone a splendid weekend!
