Good morning - brrrr hasn't it got chillier now? I guess we've seen the end of the tropical weather, hopefully not for the year though!!!
Today I have used one of my new stamps which I got at the NEC it is one of the new releases from Lili of the Valley:
He's certainly a little sweetie that's for sure. I have gone for a round card for a change using my Grand Nestabilities for the shape. I have coloured him with Copics and Prisma Pencils and paper pieced the balloons. I got the ribbon from the NEC from Mei Flowers and the sliders are from my stash. Flowers are from Wild Orchid and have been doused with some Stickles. The little butterflies are made with a Woodware punch and glitter card but you can't see the glitter lol! The gems are from my stash. I have used Milled Lavender Distress Ink to distress the edge of the image. I would like to enter the following challenges:

Yesterday I played surrogate grandmother to my friend's children. It was grandparent's day at their school and their real grandma was working and her little boy was so upset that he wouldn't have a grandparent there so I went in place. I had a lovely time they put on a little show and sang songs and showed their pictures of grandparents and we then went round the classrooms and looked at their work it was all really nice.
Thanks for looking today, please leave a comment if you are able to its always lovely to read them and take care xx
