Tilda's Got A Cold Bottom! - Simon Says Stamp DT Card

Hello peeps,
Where has summer gone? I was so cold last night I switched the heating on for an hour which is madness in mid August!
Apologies for not making it round to many of you the last couple of days & thank you so much for your well wishes for my mum, she is still in hospital but despite being sick she looks amazingly well. We've no idea yet when mum will be able to go home, but I do know she'll have hours of all her soap operas to catch up on as she hasn't even seen a TV since she was taken into hospital on Friday night & she does love her soaps lol.

Today is new challenge day at

For today's card I've rummaged in my stash and dug out some uninked cuties that I've had for probably over a year, shocking lol.

  7. Hi hope your mum recovers soon. I have not visited for ages am a naughty blogger ! I have nit seen these stamps before. Loving the ice cream with these pretty papers and the MS punch is gorgeous around your creation. I find trying a new technique usually restores the crafty mojo like flicking through YouTube or slitcoast stampers for ideas. Kitty :D
