Im bbbbaaaaccckkkk....

Good morning everyone, did you all have a fab break, I'm back and totally shattered, our hotel was fabulous, excellent service, good beds, lush food and a glass bathroom which I so admired the cleaners for keeping spotless and finger print free...just one slight problem every night at 10pm very loud music started and didn't stop until after 1am, now normally it would bother me at all and we would have probably gone downstairs and listened but we were wanting to get up to sight see but slept in because of the music, but we managed a late breakfast and off on our travels we went...it didnt spoil our weekend though and we got to see all the fab sights anyway, I will show you some fantastic photos tomorrow (including some arty shots Phil took, Im very impressed lol) and tell you more...did you all miss me? bet you didn't even notice I was away lol...anyways loads to do today so I will get on with telling your about my card for today and tell you about the chance to join our Sugar Nellie DT

Linkmy card for today is using the fantastic Ribonitta Lolitta from Sugar Nellie, I love her hair don't you, all those cute curls...I coloured her with distress inks and teamed her up with this stunning double sided paper from Echo Park's Sweet Summertime collection called Summer Argyle, gorgeous colours isn't it...I finished my card with some fab pretty buttons and a lush gingham ribbon and bow...the fab sketch is from the Sassy Cheryl's digi stamps challenge but like the cows tail I'm behind again and missed the deadline...now then onto your chance to be one of the Sugar Nellie DT...all you need to do is read the notice below and give it a go...you never know do you and its a great team to be on...right I'm off to catch up with my Dad this morning and get his stuff ready for his holiday so busy busy busy, I will catch up with you all tonight...whatever your up to today have a brilliant one

Oh Mina that is truly gorgeous I love your soft colour choice, and the card design.
Im so glad you enjoyed your trip away, you had music we had gulls screeching all night long when we went to Looe, didnt realise birds could make so much noise in the dark but gulls can, in the end I had to put toilet paper in my ears as I just couldnt sleep. hugs Shirleyx
