I love orange and pink together - Truly Scrumptious challenge 50 sketch+A Spoon full of sugar challenge

Good morning everyone how are all doing, did you survive the weather without damage, at last the wind has died down but last night I thought the roof was going to come off, I have visions of the Wizard of Oz and wondered if my Oz would be pink instead of green lol...we haven't anything planned today so nothing exciting happening so if you have tell me and make me jealous...my card for today is one of my favourite colour combos from A Spoon full of sugar challenge, I love pink and orange together and these Kaisercraft Candy Lane 6x6 paper pad, lush aren't they, they are metallic and embossed too and perfect for this challenge...the fabulous girly image is a Michelle Perkett Studio digi called Bella the Baker from Bunny Zoe's Crafts, isn't she stunning, I want a dress with flowers on like that, I coloured her with distress inks...I finished with some huge Marianne D flowers and leaves from the pink set, I thought they might be too big for the image but they match ok don't they...everything I used today is from Bunny Zoe's Crafts and the sketch is a lush one from Truly Scrumptious challenge...have a fantastic Saturday whatever your up to and I have a real yummy treat for you tomorrow so speak to you then

    Hi Mina - another gorgeous card. I love pink and orange together too.
    Unfortunately, we're not unscathed - my hubby's new fence has come down in the wind, along with panels from the fence next to our other neighbours as well! So depressing! And he can't do anything about it this weekend as he is working today and tomorrow!
    Love, Andrea xx
