Sweet birthday




Have had a busy week this last week, but don't really know what I have done - apart from meeting friends for coffee, visiting another friend for lunch and crafting friend Diane coming over(talking and not doing) - suppose that's why I haven't made any cards this week, too busy socialising! Fortunately, one of the summer birthday cards that I did make a few weeks ago fits the Papertake weekly challenge which is 'In the Garden'. I used one of my favourite Sarah Kay images which was coloured with, as usual, Distress Inks. The papers are Laura Ashley.

This card also fits the Wild Orchid challenge - Say it with Flowers - my flowers were punched from the same papers with a Retro flower punch and then scrunched up to within an inch of their lives, and then unfolded and attached with a brad.

So - for not having made a card this week, I am entering in 2 challenges - not bad!

You might want to check out Lorraine's Loft, she has some great House Mouse candy.

Thanks for looking.
