I have also been lucky enough to get this fabulous award from my fellow Promarker teamie Debbi (Wee Wicca Babe).  circle-of-friends-award Thank you so much for this one too Debs, we have made a very special bond in our team and I am so proud to be  a part of it.

This one comes with some rules so this is what you have to do:

2. Share 5 things you like to do
3. And share with 10 blogs
4. Inform each blog

A Spoonful of Sugar #63 – Floral Fantasy

challenge 63 - Floral Fantasy

This week over at ASOS the challenge title is Floral Fantasy so as I’m sure EVERYONE has something flowery in their stash – punches, dies, Primas, silk flowers, papers etc, then there should be no shortage of players.  The DT have come up trumps too so there’s plenty of inspiration over on the blog.

My card is a little different to what I’ve been making lately in that it doesn’t have a stamped image on it.  I have used my new fabulous Retro Flower punches from Crafts U Love and my favourite Raspberry Fizz papers from Papertrey Ink (from my bud Steph of course) – I’ve made these go a long way but may just have to get some more now!  I’ve also used my other latest acquisition – my Oval All stamps and punches from Stampin Up.

I have actually sent this card to Steph to say thank you for the gorgeous gift (see Friday’s post) she sent me last week – I hope she gets the card before she sees this mind you!!!  lol.

Byeee!
