Pots of Love...

A wee quickie before bed tonight!! I wanted to enter this weeks challenge at The Ribbon Girl as I found these Tim Holtz ribbon s and flowers in my stash and really wanted to use them so thought they were perfect for the challenge.

We were out earlier for dinner as it's Michael's birthday on Sunday...my boy will be 21!!  He has plans all weekend so we had to book a slot with him tonight as his plans don't include mum, dad and sister!!  Although they will when he runs out of cash!!

For my card I have used Pots of Love from LOTV which I coloured with copics, the papers are from MME - Howdy Doody which I layered onto kraft card.  The ribbon and flowers are from TH...they are really pretty IRL!!

Bear Hugs...

Good morning sweet stampers and my scheduled post...not because I have having a lie in but because I am off to the Sincerely Yours craft show at Ingliston....mmm I wonder what I will buy??

So...I am loving these new papers from Fancy Pants - Park Bench collection...they are just so yummy and just my kind of colours!! I love blue and yellow, blue and green or blue and orang together...  I layered them onto kraft card. The stamp is Bear Hug from Belles and whistles which I coloured with copics.
