Good morning peeps,
Thank you so much for your lovely messages of support after my little rant, I will be round to thank you all but I just felt like having a little bit of time away from blogging which was just as well really as life has been really hectic and Jodie has been hurting my brain expecting me to think and help her with her college work lol.
Today is new challenge day at
this weeks challenge is
My lovely teamies and I are showcasing stamps by MY FAVOURITE THINGS this week, if you have them we would love to see them but as always it's not compulsory to enter the challenge
Ingredients -
Medium - distressed inks
Papers - DCWV, The Linen Closet
Flowers - Prima
Pearls - Hero Arts
Charm - Symbolize
Sparkle - stardust stickles
I was going to say how quick and easy this cute little image was to colour but I think it was the paper pieced shorts and t-shirt that helped lol. I've coloured the the love hearts and alternate strips on her shorts and added a little of the compulsory sparkle
As always our lovely Heidi is sponsoring this challenge with a mahoosive
It was lovely having so many lovely visitors on the blog hop last week, I think we've all had problems picking the winner for our candy vouchers kindly given to us by our lovely Heidi & Steph as unfortunately there were a lot of peeps who didn't read the rules and obviously to be fair we had to double check the winners did qualify so I had poor old random.org doing overtime lol
Our blog candy winners will be published on the
later today
