A bit of Hope and a glittery Mum - Sugar Nellie DT

Good morning everyone I hope your all well and have something fabulous planned for the weekend...Phil came home last night and had a look at the holiday I had put together and is chuffed to bits about it, I think he needs a couple of weeks relaxing and chilling out he works very hard bless him...our anniversary is actually Monday so to celebrate 35 years and as a thank you for getting me to an amazing 275,000 hits I will be giving away some yummy candy on Monday so keep an eye out for it...I think you will like the goodies, I do and wouldnt mind winning them myself...my card for today is for the Sugar Nellie DT and I used the Sugar Bowl sketch for it too, this is the stunningly beautiful Hope isnt she just gorgeous, I coloured her with Distress inks and teamed her up with these lush Prima Jack & Jill papers the lush glittery gold and the cream flowers are Primas and the gorgeous blingy letters are Papermania...I added some ribbons and bows from my stash to finish...Im entering this for the Papertake weekly Its a Mom thing challenge, Simon says Stamp Mothers Day challenge and the DYSU shine on challenge too...have a wonderful Saturday everyone, Im off to drag Phil around the craft shops as I think he owes me a big pressie dont you Mina xxx
