Hiya!
Back again..... I've been on my hols and had a lovely time but now I'm trying to sort out piles of washing and post that built up while I was away - it's endless! And to top it off my internet connection is playing silly wotsits - not a happy bunny!
I did manage to find some time to craft though - and I loved making this one. This is my DT card for Dream Valley. Our challenge this week is distressing - I had a lot of fun duffing up my papers for this one. I was just in the mood for it :-) We are sponsored by the fabulous One Stop Card Crafts and Digi Doodle Shop. Digi Doodles gave us some gorgeous images to play with. Mine isn't one of them (it's one of my fave LOTV images) but if you pop over to Dream Valley you can see what the other DT members have created with them - beautiful!
This is an anniversary card for my pal, Nic and her husband Dave who got married last year......
I love this image.....
I added one of my flowers made from layering scrunched up scalloped circles cut with my nesties, held together with a brad.....
I used:
Image and sentiment - LOTV
Promarkers, glitter glue
Papers - Summer bloom, papermania
Nesties
Mini butterfly punch
Ribbon and brad from stash
Challenges:
CRAFT challenges - Anniversary
Creative inspirations - Summertime
Ladybug Crafts Ink - Favourite stamp
Sarah Hurley - Punch it
Right, I've got loads to do today so I'm off. I hope to be able to pop by all your blogs very soon and see what you've been doing while I've been away :-)
Don't forget to check out all the other DT's creations at Dream Valley. They're gorgeous!
Love 'n' hugs,

Hi hun!
I'm sorry because I have been MIA lately, but due to my work I have very limited time for crafting/blogging. *sigh* I will TRY to come around more often.
This card of yours is amazing! I love the papers and the distressed edges. Fab work.
