I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles - Addicted To Stamps DT Card

Good morning peeps,
It's wonderful to see the good old British summer is still in full swing here, my garden has gone wild with all this rain, & there's always a bright side it's looking so lush and green & saves me watering it lol.
I have decided I still really don't like this pink laptop, blogging takes me so much longer which means I get to visit less of you :( I'm going to have to ring that helpline again as it doesn't seem to matter which browser I use they all have different problems on this thing. So far I've tried IE which is so slow, freezes & I have trouble scrolling down the page, Firefox freezes, I can't select drop down boxes making paying for stash etc impossible & I have trouble with the pop up comments box closing when clicked on, Chrome is the worse and tabs shut when I click on them so switching between windows is impossible!!! Any suggestions of other browsers that are good & worth a try would be greatly appreciated peeps before I fatally harm this darn thing lol.

Today is new challenge day at
& this fortnight our lovely Nadell has come up with a 
Ingredients -
Image - Mo Manning
Sentiment - Magnolia
Medium - Copics
Papers - Pink Paislee, Butterfly Garden
Butterfly - Prima
Fancy Corner - e-crafts
Pin- homemade
Lace & Flowers - Wild Orchid & Kort & Godt
Pearls - Melissa Frances, String Of Pearls - Wild Orchid
The Copic colours I've used are -
skin - E11, E00, E000, R20, E93, hair - E25, E31, E50, clothes - YR01, YR00, YR0000 / G24, G21, G20, chair - E57, E55, E53, E51, bubbles & bubbles pot - B0000, B60, BV20 / BV17, BV11, BV01, BV0000
 
 Here is Nadell's fabby sketch to play with
 I'm entering my card in the following challenges -
 2 Sisters - anything goes, Allsorts - dies, Sweet Stampin' - ribbon & bows, Digi Days - girlie, Fairytale - soft colour tones, Inspire Me Fridays - anything goes, Raise The Bar - summer, Stampin' For The Weekend - show us your style (girlie), Aud's Sentiments - bingo (happy, ribbon & die cut), Cute Card Thursday - here comes summer, MAWTT - birthday, Crafts & Me - anything goes, Divas By Design - die cut, Papertake - bingo (middle row across)
That's me done for now peeps, hubby wants to go shopping, groan. He's so strange as he's not like the other men who look grumpy and bored pushing a trolley around mine is in his element & enjoys it for some bizarre reason which I will never understand, I'd so much rather order it online and have it delivered lol.
Thanks for stopping by

  2. Hi Mandi, You may need a software rebuild, I had trouble with my firefox and it was that Java hadn't been installed, it doesn't come as part of the operating system. No idea if that helps you or not. Just check you have Java installed.

    Your card is adorable. Gorgeous in the extreme!

    Cheers,

  4. Good Morning Mandy!
    Agh...such an adorable card honey! This is soo gorgeous!! These are colours outside my comfortzone, but hey...they look great and remember me of ice-cream! ;)
    I am sending you some sun across the ocean from Austria to UK...it is soo hot here for over a week and I want it a bit cooler...just from 34°C to 24° would be perfect!!
    Sorry to hear about your Laptop. I have Firefox...prefer it to IE, but the last weeks it also freezes, when I scroll down !! :((((
    Have a lovely Sunday!

  6. Hi Mandy, lovely card, I love the Mo images.

    Sorry to hear you're still having probs with computer, do you think it might be a problem with the OS?

    As for your hubby liking shopping, well mine does too, in fact he now writes the shopping list and toddles off on his own to get it all - can't argue with that so I let him!
    Cheers,
    Elaine

  7. I use Google Chrome Hun as IE is useless it just freezes all the time,so I down loaded
    Google chrome and it works,brilliantly.
    I must admit Hun my daughter has a laptop,and hers is so much slower than my,tower computer she always uses mine,if she wants,something quickly,Towers to me have more power than Laptops,know they are a pain,to have somewhere to put them,but so much, Quicker than laptops.
    Right I will shut up now,your card Hun is simply stunning,your detail always blows me away and the colours are amazing hugs Cherylxxx

  8. Another fabulous card. After many problems I changed browsers -a tried all the other and ended up with Safari for windows and I love it and I have no tracking cookies with it - it seems to block all of them. Safari is normal on Mac but they do a version for windows and it is well worth a try. I also use CCleaner which is a great clean up tool and you can download it from www.filehippo.com - hope this helps.

  62. Hi sweetie, so sorry to hear that you're still having computer problems. :(

    The card you've created is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G my friend!
    I'm definitely adding this one to my inspiration file, I love EVERYTHING about it sweetie, from the design to the detials.
    Love the string of pearls around the edges of the card, and the way you've put your flowers together into that GORGEOUS flowerarrangement is breathtaking.
    I've been hesitating to buy this Martha Stewart leaf punch for a while, but after seeing this card I really think I need to have it ;)

    Hope you and your garden will see some sunshine soon,
    hugs from Hanna
