fancy some Strawberry, Chocolate and cream+Colour Create challenge, CES challenge+Spoon full of sugar challenge+Papertake challenge

Good morning everyone, we had 12 degrees yesterday...wow now how sad am I getting excited about 12 degrees lol...I gave myself a facial yesterday, and my skin felt lush but then I spent the whole day pushing my glasses up as my skin was too shiny, you cant win can you, dry skin and wrinkles but at least your glasses stay on, beautiful clean moisturised skin but they keep falling off, at the finish I tied a bit of ribbon on the legs so at least they didn't fall on the floor, of course it had to be pink satin ribbon tied in a bow lol...anyway onto my card for today which is for our new challenge over at Colour Create and this time it was my choice of colour combo and I chose Chocolate, Strawberry and cream with the added option of using ribbons, isn't it weird our choices are made months ago and all the challenges seem to come up with red lol...I used another Christmas paper for my card, its Basicgrey Wassail Winterberry and the tag is made using a lush Teddybo image...its one of three on one stamp called Three in a Row, isn't it sweet and fab to colour, I used Distress inks, I added a rich chocolate coloured satin ribbon and bow and used a scattering of punched hearts to finish...I'm entering this for the CES Red and Romance Challenge, Spoon Full of Sugars Lets see some Love challenge and the Papertake Weekly Have a Heart challenge too...when you have time pop on over to Colour Create and check out what the rest of the DT have made, wow they are super talented...have a fabulous day and lets all cross our fingers that the temperature continue to go up, I'm off to the supermarket with my Dad so at least we will be out and you never know I might even get cake with my coffee this time
