Where does the time go?!

I can't believe it is already Sunday afternoon ... where does the time go? I have finished off a couple of cards I started last night - hubby's finally got round to placing a light in my craft room so I can colour properly - well I would be able to if my water brush was behaving!!!
We took the girls to a miniature railway yesterday, as it was Dave's big boss's retirement do ... just a round trip of 6 hours on the train!!! The girls loved it as they got to go on 4 trains (we had to go into London and out) and they could colour and draw, unlike being trapped in the car for hours!! Here's a pic of them and a little train!! Beth loved going on the trains and Ellie spent her time catching fairies in the woods ... we now apparently have 12 living with us. I wonder how good they are at ironing, washing up ...!!!
I made it into my craft room last night and coloured the images for the two cards I am going to show, and chose the papers.

The first is for the following challenges:
Just Magnolia - sketch
Roses on Paper - orange, brown and green, plus sketch
Stampin' for the weekend- orange, brown and leafy green (glad you're back girls!)
Stamp Something - Brown plus

OK in the sketch the image is circular, but Tilda didn't look right so she's oval!!! I watercoloured her and distressed the background. I used my favourite autumnal papers and matted them onto green and brown cardstock. Rather than used flowers I stamped some leaves and gold embossed them, and cut them out.
Roses on Paper are doing a DT call if you are interested.

The second card is for Alison Acton (one of Whiff of Joy's artists) as sahe and her husband are expecting their first baby really soon. Katharina would like everyone to send her a card and there is candy up fro grabs.
I used the Penny Black Saturday Challenge, Buttons and Bows, Cute Card Thursday's Charms, and the Papertake Weekly sketch.

I used this gorgeous PB image as I love it for baby cards and watercoloured it. I matted the dp on yellow cardstock and added some ribbon, buttons and an ickle flower. The sentiment is from WoJ's baby sentiments.
