basket of flowers

another day another challenge ~well i have used the friday sketchers , sketch for this card, made for my aunt. used papermania papers, personal impressions stamp, see D`s stamps and clear choice stamp corners (which isn`t showing up very well), organza ribbon from my stash and some glitter!
well i managed to get my wedding outfit , not at all what i went for ~had in mind a bright colourful dress and jacket , came home with a brown trouser suit (sounds terrible, but linen trousers , silk oyster jacket and cotton lace blouse) also got shoes , jewellery and bag ~all in 4 hours!! luckily mum came with me , and could give me the thumbs up or down!! all in and out of the pouring rain!!

just thought i would say , as i`m so excited ~i won some goodies for my lavender and lace ATC, on http://tildaandfriends.blogspot.com/. how fab a day did i have yesterday???
hope you have a fab day today , aarons sports day has been called off today~ so maybe a chance to do some craft, for me!! byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee xx
