Pretty Pink & A Peekie xxx


How cute is she!!!


She is one of the Greetings Farm Hope & Grace set which are absolutely adorable and are available over at Dies To Die For.

To be honest, I don't know if she is Hope or if she is Grace - I think she looks like a Grace - but they are both so sweet.

The minute I saw this image, I thought 'pink' and while I was over at Chez Kaths' I saw her fabulous card for the Allsorts Challenge and I thought I must go and have a look. So when I got there, I saw that the very sweet Emma - Metalic Butterfly - is on the DT and I met her at Harrogate and she is so lovely. And then I saw that this week the challenge is pink and white!!!

Well I practically squealed lol xx

So this is my card.

I coloured the lil cutie with the usual PM and GD combi. I paper pieced part of of the image and the paper is from Wild Rose Studios Spring CD

I nicked Katie's LO again - I hope you don't mind hunnykins.
But I love it so much xxxx

The beautiful bloom is from Poppicrafts - as are the brads - and I made another charm which sadly you can't see too well here due to the crap job by the dreadful photography editor (moi)!!! .

Another editing masterpiece (not).
These blooms were a RAK and I sprinkled the GD over the cerise ones. I think they look like those edible flowers you can get - like they've been dippd in sugar.


I just LOVE this sentiment.

We should all smile more I think. I know it gives you laughter lines (and God knows I should know all about that cos I have plenty of the beggars). BUT but they look more attractive than grumpy old furrowy scowly lines.

Dont ya think?

Ooops - the ribbon has changed colour!!!

The gorgeous pink and white spotty grosgrain is from Poppicrafts and the satin cerise ribbon which looks red here (it's not, honest) is from The Paper Mill Shop. It's on offer at the mo and it's really nice - good quality as well.

Well it's getting late and I am off to get the sex goddess outfit on. I have an added addition to the usual nightly get up of bri-nylon pjs & 1" thick face cream. Oh yes, I got meself a pair of those little cotton socks (bless them, lol xx) from Tescos, so now I can plaster the trotters in whatever axle grease is to hand and wear them while I sleep.

I am living the dream peeps lol xxx

But before I go and scare the hell out of Richard (poor sod), I'll leave you with a sneak peek of my card for tomorrow's Willow Sketchie Challenge .....

I'll be back tomorrow and all will be revealed.

Have a fab night xxxxx

Good to know you're nearly as glam as me in the godess dept, at least you can reach your tootsies to get the cream on! I had to bribe my hubby to pop some moisturiser on my legs and feet tonight when he got in from work!
