I hope the weather today has been better for you than it has been here in East Anglia. It has turned cold and windy and despite the weather forecast being for occasional light showers it has poured with rain on and off all day including some hail! We managed about half an hour in the garden between showers this morning and a trip out for lunch and a visit to the supermarket. It has been a great day to stay in and craft and I have been in pink and purple girly mood today.This is another of my new LOTV stamps which is just perfect for a friend's birthday.She loves flowers and bears, just like me. The image was such fun to colour and I added some Glossy Accents to the window and water droplets. Papers are Basic Grey Wisteria and Euphoria. The fab sketch is from Crafts 4 eternity. I love the ribbon arrangement and must remember to try that again.
Other challenges:
Lili of the Valley Here comes summer

Secret Crafter Friendship
Just Cute Bears Buttons and bows

Princess Anya has been mounted on card cut with a nestie and embossed with a Cuttlebug folder. I added some gold highlight to her hair and glitter to her wand and crown. I found the castle button in my stash from a pack I bought in America. Papers are Kate Knight and were free with a magazine.Challenges:
Crazy 4 challenges Sketch
Simon Says Buttons, bows and bling
One Stitch at a time Children's theme
The last card is for the Sugar Bowl challenge of this lovely sketch, which I rotated to fit the image, and use punches. I used 2 of my MS punches for the border and the fern leaves and added lots of glitter to her wings. Papers are Basic Grey, Kate Knight and Papermania Amethyst infusion.
