Good Morning!

PBSC - Pretty In Pink!

Good Afternoon!
I am so sorry that this post is late ... a day and a half late to be exact!
I haven't been home since Friday afternoon until today so this is my first chance to write this seeing I didn't have time to schedule it before I left!
So to make up for the latest here is a photograph taken of Hollie, you can tell Millie wasn't in the photo mood that day! lol


This weeks Challenge over at PBSC is Pretty In Pink!
I decided to do something different to a card this week, I made a Blue Gift box a couple of weeks ago so I decided it was time I made a Pink one to go with it!

This fits into the Challenge at:

SIMON SAYS STAMP - ANYTHING BUT A CARD



RECIPE:
PB Stamp
Bo Bunny Papers
Flowers by Wild Orchid Crafts & Prima
Shimmer Spray, Dew Drops & Ribbon from Stash

I hope this post was worth the wait!
Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Creative Inspirations - Red, Pink & White Only!

Good Morning!
I have another long post for you today as I have a little more than a card to share with you so I do hope your sat comfortably!

This week at CREATIVE INSPIRATIONS we have the following Colour Scheme for you all to use, we want to see these colours ONLY on your work. They don't have to be these particular shades this tab is here just as an example :)


However we do have an exception for Hair / Skin Tone.
You can use Green but ONLY in the form of Flower Stems / Leaves.

This card fits the Challenge at:

JUST MAGNOLIA & HANGLAR - ANYTHING GOES + RIBBON
CUPCAKE CRAFT - SEEING RED

For some strange reason the backing card-stock and ribbon looks dark pink but it is in-fact a dark red!


I didn't think this card needed a large Flower like I usually use so I have just added a few Roses and covered the Pink ones in Twinklets.




RECIPE:
Magnolia Tilda Stamp
Sentiment from LOTV
Magnolia Paper
Nesties
Cuttlebug 'Snow' Embossing Folder
Flowers & Crystal Stem from Wild Orchid Crafts
Shimmer Spray, Twinklets, Ribbon & Dew Drops from Stash

*********************

Before I go I would just like to mention 2 quick things.
Firstly a fellow DOCRAFTS Friend is offering some Blog Candy but this one is a bit different as it is in memory of her late Husband who sadly died from a Heart Attack 20 years ago .
Just click the pic to go to her blog to find out more.


*************************

Secondly my friend Caroline gave me this lovely Love Blog Award yesterday! There are a few conditions to this award:

You have been TAGGED and want to participate? Then create a post where you post the 'LOVE BLOG' image. You should also blog the persons link that gave you the award and inform her/him that you accept the award. You can then choose 3 - 5 favourite blogs which you also link in your post, then each blogger will inform you that they have been tagged....Dear bloggers:The aim of this action is that we bring unknown, good blogs to light, so I would ask you not to blog fellow bloggers that already have 3,000 followers.
I have decided to go for the 3 most recent additions on my C.I DT Team as they all create beautiful work!


That's it for me today, Thanks for Popping By!
Happy Crafting!
