I have a busy day so far ... the garden beckoned this morning, so now we have an empty compost heap, mulched beds and 3 planters planted with flowers. The garden has alos been swept and all the outdoor toys scrubbed and dried ... oh and I also cleaned inside the house and have sdone some ironing. So now I am having a cuppa and got my feet up while Dave takes the girls to a party.
I made a couple of cards last night so I thought I would share them with you.
This card covers these challenges:
Just Magnolia - Punch it out
Cute Card Thursday - mono mania
Totally Papercrafts - distressing
Friday Sketcher - sketch
Allsorts - petals and pearls

I coloured this gorgeous Tilda in promarkers and distressed the background. I distressed the edges of the papers and cardstock. I flipped the sketch and added some studded ric rac to the panel and a twine bow. Finally some flowers, a pin and some pearls. I punched some swirls out and a large punched flower to put under the cherry blossom.
My next card covers these challenges:
Wags n Whiskers - Scallops
Fuss and Fancy - Sketch
Totally Gorguss - texture
Allsorts - Petals and Pearls
Stamp Something - stitching

I coloured this gorgeous Wags N Whiskers image using my promarkers. I cut her out and sat her into the oval. I love this Wisteria paper and used co-ordinating cardstock and flowers to complete the sketch. I added pearls to the flowers and corners nad for texture some raffia lace. I faux stitched round the edges of the dp.
My lovely friend Samantha has awarded me these two awards .. thank you hunni.


I am going to pass them on to my fabby DT teamies and all my followers.
