A Triple Bugga - Boo xxx

I haven't done a multi challenge for a while, but I thought that today I'd have a go.

I thought I'd use of the new CC Designs Bugga- Boos images cos they are so very sweet and me and my bad boy PMs have been just itching to colour her.

This image is part of a set of 3 which you can get over at Dies To Die For. They are a really good size to work with and being CC Designs, they are fabulous quality and give a really good stamp.

So the challenges I've done are -

Stamp With Fun
, which this week is Dots.
Well I do love me dotty papers (wonder why lol xxx)

Over at Colour Create, this week the colour combi is blush pink, lilac and mossy green.

and for the layout I used the lovely sketch over at Stamp Something.

The papers I used are all Pink Petticoat. The green dotty paper is from the new Big Fella collection - but they aren't just for the boys cos I think that the spotty green looks lovely with the pink and lilac.

The ribbon is grosgrain and is from Poppicrafts and there is a super sale on the grosgrains at the mo. It's bargainous so check it out peeps.


The blooms are also Poppicrafts and the charm was made by my own fair trotters lol xxx

Lots of dimension on this one which I like.
So that's my triple whammy peeps!!!

I hope you all had a fab weekend. Ours was busy busy from Friday night until about 6pm last night!!! The theatre on Friday was surprisingly better than I dared hope and it turns out that the bloke Richard works with not only produced and directed the play, but he also wrote it as well!! I have to say that it kept your attention and it was really quite clever. He obviously has talent and I hope that one day it's recognised by someone. Not only that, he is a really nice man as well.

Richard's cousin and his wife were up from London so we all went to the Zoo on Saturday. We picked a great day cos the weather was gorgeous and we all got a bit sunburnt. Then it was back home, quick change and then out again for din dins!! Then were out again for Sunday lunch but instead of having pud in the restaurant, we all went back to Richard's Mums and had scones and cream with strawberries. We sat in the garden feeling quintessentially English and had a very pleasant afternoon.

R and I decided when we got home that due to the copious amounts of grub that we have been shoveling down at the rate of knots, we would try and redeem ourselves and go on a bike ride. When we got home though, we found that my bike had a mahoosive puncture (thank you daughter no 2!!) and we had no repair kit so that plan went out of the window.

So we decided to walk the food off instead. We decided to try one of the footpaths in the village which we have passed loads of times but never been along., Well it was fab. We walked for ages and didn’t see a single soul - very peaceful. I was going to make cards etc last night but we were so tired that by 8.30pm I was nodding off - it is my age, I know lol xxx

The sharp eyed amongst you may have noticed that there is something different re my pics today. Well that is because due to circumstances beyond my control (thank you daughter no 2 again - she is not doing very well is she lol xx), my usual photo editing prog does not seem to want to work. I try and open it and the screen icon appears but that's it. So I have used something else. I can't make up my mind if they are better or worse. Let me know what you think - you can be truthful!! And if anyone knows how to fix this prob, I would be ever so grateful for any advice or tips!!

Have a great day and see you tomorrow for another Papertake Weekly - I'll give you a clue, it's another sketch :)xx
