too much?...


Good morning everyone and don't worry no rant or running around like a daft thing so you can uncover your ears lol...all those people who were expecting my Crafts and Me challenge card I'm sorry to say I have decided to leave the DT...I have been with them for ages and ages and sometimes you just know its time to move on don't you...I'm so sad to leave I will miss them all but we wont be strangers and of course I will be using Crafts and Me images every now and again still, I cant resist all that hair and those beautiful eyes for long can I...I do want to thank Teresa so so much for keeping me so long and to say I have loved every second of being on the team...but enough sad news and onto my card for today...hands up who knew I wouldn't be able to resist using another of these stunning Elaine Cox digis from Sweet Pea Stamps...well I resisted for a week lol...this is the beautiful Katie coloured with distress inks but I'm not sure if this card is too red...what do you think?...I used some more of the amazing Kaisercraft - Remember Me 6.5"x6.5" Paper Pad I bought from Bunny Zoe's Crafts and finished with a lush bow made with Organza Ribbon - Red (25mm Wide) topped with a poppy cut from the pad...the sentiment is from the same pad too...the fab sketch is from Tuesday Morning Sketches Challenge and I'm also entering it for the Try it On Tuesday Challenge and the Card Mania Challenge too...I'm going to do a bit of crafting today and maybe if I'm very very lucky and the hailstones hold off a little while a bit of tidying in the garden and fingers crossed some planting even...you never know do you...whatever your up to today have a brilliant sunny one
