Good morning peeps,
I must have a catch up with a DT card again, oops my bad lol.
I needed to spend some time with my baby girl as she has been through such a hard time lately & she had to go to court a few days ago & give evidence against a thug which was truly awful. Unfortunately he had a brilliant barrister & the prosecution barrister was just not in his league he was far too nice & the thug got away with it, so naturally Jodie & the other girls brave enough to testify against him were really, really upset. Lots of tears & hugs later she's starting to feeling better about it, I'm sure it won't be too long before he's back in court again and gets the right verdict next time.
Anyway onto much nicer things my baby sister is coming to visit today & I can't wait to see her :)
Today is new challenge day at

ReplyDeleteBoth of your cards are amazing!!!! I love the deep red of her scooter and helmet (I hope you don't mind, I jolted down the colours, lol!!!). Your flower arrangements are perfect as is the rest of your cards! Hugs, Brigitte
I think you've made a beautiful Tilda-card! The diecut border, doily and flowers give your card such a soft, feminine look. I'm a huge fan of kraft, and I think you've used just the perfect amount of it on your card. The stitching and texture are lovely details too. I came over from MIM.
ReplyDeleteAhhhhhhhhhh Mandy totally stunning image and the layout of your card is gorgeous x
ReplyDeleteBoth cards are so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI love your coloring, and the flowers and other embellishments are gorgeous.
I just adore the feathers!
Hugs, Anne.
Mandy your cards are beautiful! Your attention to detail and how well you bring the images to life is just wonderful. I had the best time being mesmerized by them.:) Beautiful layouts, sewing and embellishments too!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for taking the time to link up your talent and creative ideas with us at Make It Monday!
Happy Crafting...
