Don't faint but...........................

I've made a card. Wooooooooooooooooo hoooooooooooooooooo

My mojo nipped home the other night and stopped just long enough for me to make a card. Now I would have posted this soon but for some strange reason blogger wouldn't let me go on any blogs last night. It kept coming up "your computer or network is sending automated queries" blah blah blah the end result it wouldn't let me view anyone's blog not even my own aarrgg. Anyway i'm here now ( cos I have a days holiday today lol) and Susie Q can stop leaving me coooeeeeee anyone home messages lol.

I decided to use the sketch from Truly Scrumptious' Challenge # 13.

I really like this sketch and will defo use it again when my mojo returns for good lol.


Here is my interpretation;

I've used my favourite papers MME Grow. The punch was MS Valentine Lace. The stamps are the Daisy by Magnolia and Heidi Swiss Pixie by CC Designs. The white flowers were from my stash and the orange flowers were a little something I picked up in Hobbycraft a few weeks ago.

I'd better go and make hubby a well deserved drink as he's sorting out the front garden with my little man. He's got him involved so as to stop him scratching as he's got Shingles (well the Dr's think that's what it is) poor little thing.

Laters peeps

xXx
ETA: I forgot to add that there is an added element to the challenge which was to use a bit of bling on your card. I sprayed the flowers with Glimmer mist and added a bit of glitter but you can't actually see it that well.
