PTW challenge – Dawny’s sketch #13

This is my take on Dawny’s lovely sketch over at PTW this week. I did turn it on it’s side so hope that’s ok. This is made with more of the gorgeous Stampin Up! papers from my pal Steph – this time from the Summer Picnic range. The flowers in the middle (which go very well indeed with the paper I have to say!) are a set of stamps I’ve had for AGES from Banana Frog. I haven’t really used them much latley but as I was looking through them I came across this one. Handy when that kind of thig happens isn’t it??

Ok, off to chip away at that ironing!!

Finally – I’ve made a challenge card!

For some reason I have been really bad at getting through the challenges these past few weeks. As I managed to get my DT stuff done early for next week as I was able to have a look through some of the current challenges and was taken with the sketch over at Sketch Saturday. I have used my fave, Daisy and some of the SU! paper from Steph. These are Tea Party from the new mini catalogue and they’re gorgeous.

This is just a quickie as I have a pile of ironing reaching up to the ceiling! It’s all very well and good these lovely sunny days, getting all your washing out on the line and all that….the down side is it all needs ironing!!!

Here come the girls!

Afternoon all, hope you’re all well. I thought I’d share this card I made the other night with my latest purchase – these beautiful Stamping Bella Ketto stamps. Aren’t they so cute? They’ve been coloured with PM’s and then glamour dusted!

I have also been given the Smile award agin this time by the most awesomely amazing lady Donna Mundinger – thank you so much hunny, I am so honoured to get this from you.

I had my Stampin Up! evening last night and had a great time. I wasn’t TOO naughty but got some fabby stamp sets , papers, card etc. I can’t wait for it all to arrive. Nicci, the SU! demo who came over was so sweet and showed us all some really great ideas. There was a wide range of experience in the room and she catered for everyone – novice to expert! Thank you so much Nicci, it was a brilliant night and it was so lovley to meet you. I hope you enjoyed it too. If anyone would like to order any SU! stuff then I know Nicci wouldn’t mind you popping over to her lovley blog (Procraftination) and having a nose – if you’re in the Merseyside area then she could do a party for you too!! (plug, plug!!). Seriously, it was a lot of fun and I would reccommend it to anyone.
