CES DT Card & Challenges!


Hello everyone, today is Saturday and we see a new challenge over at the CES Challenge Blog. This weeks theme is "Water It". You can interpret this any way you wish and we cant wait to see your lovely creations.
For my card I have used WOJ Nora with Ducks and Umberella which can be purchased over at Crafty Emma's store along with the gorgeous new "Petal Point" Card Blank. There are many new items for sale so why not take a look! The papers are Magnolia and I've coloured the image again with the new Spectrum Noir Pens. Viva Pearl Pen, Catslife Press Sentiment and Rafia Lace for embellishment. Take a look over at the CES Challenge Blog to see what other gorgeous cards my teamies have made.

Yesterday we bought 2 new additions, Pretzel and Ashley, 2 baby rabbits. I will take a picture to show you, they are so cute... Just leaving them in quiet for a few days while they settle into their new home.
We are having major trauma with our router again, already gone 4 times this morning so if I'm quiet you will know why. 
Thanks for stopping by my blog today and hope you all have a lovely weekend

awww, such a darn cute image and your colouring matches the papers to absolute perfection! Love the crisp layout. Cool edging to the card too - never seen that one.
I'm a bit curious about these new pens but since I kinda have invested in Copics can't really go and buy a set of new ones. Cause knowing me I'd need to WHOLE colour range to start with, lol
