What A Day!

Hi everyone 

I hope you have all had a wonderful Sunday! Mine has been a disaster! For weeks now I have had plans to travel up to Newcastle to spend the day with the lovely ladies who run The Ribbon Girl. As I left the house this morning I spotted my car had a flat tyre. No biggie - phoned the recovery to come and change it for me (now I am glad I got Home Start!). First the mechanic couldnt get one of the wheel nuts off, then when he did the spare was flat too!!! And THEN when he tightened the wheel nut back up it snapped clean in half. So I never made it to Newcastle and have felt gutted all day. I did however cheer myself up by playing with gorgeous Ribbon Girl goodies all day instead. Coupled with a super super sweet image from Tiddly Inks the day is finishing on a much better note than it started on!

Tiddly Inks Wryn-Heartfelt Love

Hi everyone
I was like a kid waiting to finish school today so I could play! I was clockwatching at work until it was time to pack away the work computer. Log out of emails. Open the Copics box (I work from home so this happened within minutes hehe) and away I went.
I just HAD to use another gorgeous Tiddly Ink image.
What!!! No Lace?? No Ribbons?? No Flowers??? Is this really my card! To be honest I thought the image really does the card justice itself with the string of hearts.
Image is Wryn-Heartfelt Love From Tiddly Inks.
I used a Be My Valentine chipboard from Make It Crafty.

Hair: E21 E43 E77 E79

Chasing Butterflies

Hi everyone 

Well, as promised I am going to keep up with my blogging this year. Here we are 4 days in and already 3 cards done! 2018 is off to a great crafting start. 

For today's card I have used yet another Saturated Canary image. Oh I do miss Krista's shop and images. I have a LOT of them but you can never have too many right?

So here is my first card of 2018
