Bella love...


Good morning everyone did you all have a fabulous weekend?...I was very out of sorts after my hospital visit on Friday so had the weekend to chill and put it all aside before I could settle down to creating anything...poor Phil got asked to work on Saturday when he was supposed to be marshaling...but on Saturday the heavens opened and the racing was cancelled so he didn't miss anything...in fact the rain was of biblical proportions and was running down our street at one stage...all those poor people who had come from all over the world for the racing didn't get to see anything...in fact there's a B&B three doors up from us and the German riders staying there only got one ride around the track before the racing was stopped isn't that awful...but all's well now everyone has gone home and things are getting back to normal...although the 100 or so bikes that took a short cut through our very quiet street on Friday evening were a bit of a shock lol, but Phil loved it...right now onto my card for today...how sweet is this cutie...shes one of the new Wild Rose Studios stamps and is called Bella with Posy, just what you need isn't it a cute little elephant with flowers, now that would make anyone smile...I coloured her with my distress inks and teamed her up with some more of the amazingly gorgeous Kaisercraft - Needle & Thread 6.5"x6.5" Paper Pad...lush isn't it...I finished with a scattering of pearls and three flowers from the Prima Flowers Perle Bebe - Almanac pack...everything I used except the pearls are from Bunny Zoe's Crafts... the fab sketch is from Sunday Sketch and Stamp Challenge and I'm also entering it for the Crafty Calender Challenge and the Dream Valley Challenge too...I'm having a catch up day today theres loads of DT stuff I have to catch up with...I may have to lock myself in lol...whatever your up to today I hope its a fabulously sunny one for you
