A Big Catch Up - Totally Tilda & Paper Play DT & La La Land GDT

Hello peeps,
I'm so sorry I've neglected my blog & visiting you all, I have loads to get through today and catch up on posting DT & GDT cards. I've had two flipping migraines this week, the second I thought was just a hangover at first & the result of a lot of wine consumption after going out on a "ladies night" but then I had the blurred flashing lights in my vision etc & couldn't believe I was having another one as usually it's very rare that I get migraines. It's probably just stress & tiredness as I am such an insomniac, I'm convinced I was an owl in a past life lol.
I thought I'd attempt a quick post, yeah right good luck with that champion waffler lol.

Today is new challenge day at 
& this fortnight we would love to see your

 Idiot here enjoyed colouring this sweet little Marci & making my card so much I totally forgot I needed to follow a theme until I went to upload it in the DT group, luckily it was a nice easy one to fix :)

 this weeks challenge is
so we don't want to see images, just sentiments.
This one was a last minute card as I already had my DT card made but when I discovered this neglected never been inked stamp in my stash I had to have another play :)
Ingredients - Cats Life Press sentiment, Raspberry Road papers, Kort & Godt & Wild Orchid flowers, MS Aspen PATP, MS Himalayan snowflake punch, Karrs & The Ribbon Girl bling, large snowflake  was a gift from a lovely lady :)
My last card today is my original DT card for Paper Play, it was a comissioned card I made a few weeks. It's not my usual style but was nice for a change & so quick and easy to make. I had to put it straight in the box when I'd finished making it as I have trouble stepping away from the card until it's piled high with embellies so I thought it best to try the out of sigh out of mind approach lol.
Ingredients - Melissa Frances paper, Cheery Lynn butterflies, Zva Creative pearl flourish, MS PATP, ribbon & lace from stash
That's me all caught up :)
I don't know quite where this last week has gone, hopefully next week will be a nicer more chilled out and creative week.
Thanks for stopping by

    Take care,
