Teddy Bea Says Happy Birthday - Addicted To Stamps DT Card

Hello peeps,
It's good to be able to post & do some hopping again :)
I had a thought, thankfully that doesn't happen too often lol. I spent hours on Wednesday afternoon & evening leaving DT comments for my various challenges, & the comments I had moderated & published on my Simon Says Stamp DT card and the post on my blog vanished during the blip so does that mean all those hours commenting were wasted, actually don't answer in case I'd be happier not knowing lol.

Today is new challenge day at
& this fortnight our challenge is

I do love this scrummy colour combo. Please pop over and take a peek at my lovely teamies creations, you won't be disappointed :)
Ingredients -
Image - Teddy Bea
Medium - distressed inks
Papers - Memory Box, Prima & Kraft cardstock
Flowers - Prima, Wild Orchid & stash
Sentiment - Cats Life Press
Sparkle - crystal glamour dust & diamond stickles
Tools - MS punch around the page, CC Designs butterfly dies, Magnolia Doo Hickey leaves


 I've distressed all the paper edges with Tim Holtz picket fence crackle paint, I do love this stuff and I've noticed I'm running low as I've only 2 bottles I won't tell you how many I had to start with but I wisely bought in bulk lol.
I'm entering my card in the following challenges -
Hanna & Friends - fab sketch, Delightful sketches - flowers, Craft Us Crazy - favourite embellies & / or new (flowers & new butterfly dies), Crafty Ann's - happy birthday, Fairy Fun Fridays - here come the girls, Sew Many Challenges - anything goes, Stamp Something - anything goes, Papertake - punches / dies, Top Tip Tuesday - floral frenzy, Cute Card Thursday - distressing, The Corrosive - birthdays, Everybody Art - flowers
I'll be busy buying and delivering birthday presents later as I've 2 family birthdays today, eek!  I can't believe I've become so disorganised and the trouble is I will be buying one of them from my favourite garden centre, the big one with it's own craft shop and there is no point denying myself & trying to resist the urge to "pop" in, the temptation is just too much to resist so why bother trying, and anyway it would be rude not to lol.
Thanks for stopping by

    It does seem that lots of comments have disappeared... I few of comments that were left on my last card have gone, so I imagine that the ones I left have disappeared too! GRRRRR!
