I intended posting on Monday but blogger wouldn't allow me to upload photos for some strange reason & it would have been a pretty rubbish post without photos lol!
Anyway I'm here now thankfully, photos and all lol.

lovely exclusive goodies on our cards. You don't have to use them to enter our challenge but we'd love to see them if you do.
I had a bit of brain freeze while making this card & didn't have a plan or clue how I wanted it to be so it just kind of happened after much faffing around!
I opted for pretty Spring pastels as I love pastels, it's always the softer the colours the better for me. I have featured Simon's adorable Circle Friends Stamp Set & again used Simon's Copic Friendly Card Stock to stamp these cute little bears onto.
The copic colours I've used are -
B23, B21, B0000 / RV52, RV000, RV0000 / G43, G40, G21.
As always our lovely Heidi is sponsoring our challenge with a $50 voucher for the fabulous

Next up I'm going to share the card I tried to post on Monday!
I've used sweet little Miracle Love Tilda from Magnolia's A Touch Of Love collection & she was lovely to colour. The papers are old Magnolia papers & I've lightly distressed the paper edges with scissors & pumice stone distress ink. The sentiment is an old Cat's Life Press stamp & all of the others are by Magnolia.
