Woo...Hoo.... I've won the 'orange' challenge on the Sugar Nellie challenge blog (see link on the left) I couldn't believe it when I was reading my comments and there was one saying I had won, I should be getting some 'zooms' they look a bit like gems? I've already made my card for the next challenge in which you have to use any sugar nellie image and baby pink, I have used my bunny with flowers image and it's also my first attempt at paper piecing!!! Not that you can tell all that well because the paper is quite plain but it is the same as the backing paper I have also used, not added a greeting as I can't decide yet if it will be a 'baby girl' or easter card! So here is my challenge entry
Here is another attempt at paper piecing, you can see the effect better with this one! It was a bit fiddly cutting around the bunny slippers but I think it's pretty cool! The greeting was a freebie with one of my mags and I think it finishes it off nicely. This is my entry into the Sweet Sugar Challenge (a new challenge blog for sugar nellies yeah...!!)(see link on the left)
My last card for now is my entry into Claudia's blog candy challenge (see link on the left) you have to make a card using your favourite colours, guess mine is purple for now LOL..!
Lillie had a lovely time at her friends party yesterday afternoon, we left Hollie at mum and dad's so she could play with her cousins. Matthew and I had a quick shop and it was quick as the shops were set to close they locked me in the works as I was the last customer but I didn't care, I bought a set of pearl watercolour paints (used on todays cards, they sparkle and look quite pretty!) a watercolour pad, some paint brushes and a pack of square cards with envelopes. We then nipped round Matthews bro and sis-in-laws for a quick cuppa and look around their new house, so quite a hectic afternoon!!
Now off to get Lillie and then off to the fancy dress shop to pick up her mermaids out-fit for the party at the weekend!
