Morning, its very wet here, not stopped raining and I am still full of cold. Kids should have gone back today but Jessica has a bad throat and Zoe's now full of cold and had me up 1/2 the night.
I did manage to finish this easel card though, not been up to crafting these last few days.
I took the sketch from this weeks Sketch Saturday, just love the Layout. The papers are the new Cosmo Cricket 6 x 6 "Material Girl" and my new "Bench Friends" from Kraftin Kimmies Stamps. I've coloured with Promarkers and Chalks. Lots of flowers, a few buttons, charm, ribbon & calender all from stash. Some faux stitching and lots of distressing on the papers.
My card also fits in with these challenges;
Lexi's Creations - Anything Goes
Cupcake Craft Challenge - Friends
Stamp with Fun - Stitch
Quirky Crafts - Cute
Paper Sundaes - Distress
Crafty Catz - Charming Bear
Saturday Spotlight - Distressing
Cute Card Thursday - Metal Mania

Crafty Calendar - Love/Friendship
I will be back at some stage with a sneak peak from LOTV. Did you know there are more new releases on the way very soon. If you like kitties and a few others then you wont be dissapointed. Watch this space for more details.......
Now must get the dreaded chores done, we are changing estate agents as our house has still not sold and they are coming this afternoon. Hope to get some crafting done inbetween if possible.
