Hi everybody

This card is being entered into two challenges

- All Sorts Challenge, week 14 which has has a theme of 'In a English Country Garden' and this is my take on it, with the birds also flying around the garden.

- Cute Card Thursday, no. 74 - Lazy Dayz, which can be a summery stamp or have a summer colour theme.

Sarah Kay are some of favourite 'cute' stamps, and so pretty. I have coloured with Prisma pencils - I think I might be getting the hang of them at last - having had them in the cupboard since last year and hardly used them (no excuse at all!). The Magenta papers are a new purchase from Crafts U Love.

Recipe:

Stamps - Sarah Kay and Penny Black

Stampin' for the weekend

This is for the Stampin for the Weekend, #10, and a great sketch by Vicki, in some of my favourite colours, chocolate and pink. The stamp is Picnic of Daisies, and I have coloured with Inktense pencils. Paper is from the Porcelain pack by Basic Grey, and it is disappearing fast.

Paper - Basic Grey

Create4Fun Challenge

Well - having got myself on blogland, I thought I had better do something other than let it all just sit there - although the last 10 days or so have been all about the dreaded swine flu! So, I am entering my first challenge. Apologies for the pic - it is a scan. I need to work out how best to photograph my stuff - any tips always welcome.

Thanks for stopping by.
