Thursday 21 April 2011

Hi and a fine glorious afternoon it is! It's been that hot that I've felt under the weather with all the fab heat...but I shouldn't complain...an abundance of sunshine is better than none at all. So today i've got this super image from Faith's progressive challenge called 'ladybug balancing act', coloured with Promarkers, I even gave them a smile each, embossed the whole image in my cuttlebug and added a button from stash, found some gorgeous buggy paper from Polka Doodles Sugar Birdies CD I won over at Allsorts some time ago now, they're off the lulu lady bug set, made a fancy stopper out of my fancy fiskars punch raised with foam squares. This is a mini easel, perfect for a tiny friend at Postpals, I'm gathering up May's birthday cards from all the ones I made to send out to them.

So other challenges I'd like to enter are...Digital Tuesday 'pretty punches', Whoopsi Daisy 'free & easy', Incy Wincy 'bright & bold', Sew Many '2 dp's, flower & button', Yes there's only 1 paper, can the embossed count count as the other? ;))))Simon says 'emboss it', Cute Card Thursday 'no text', I Love Promarkers 'anything goes', Craft Your Passion 'dots' and Pixie Dust studio 'spring forward'. Hope everyone is looking forward the holiday weekends, bye for now!
