Today is your day...


Good morning everyone I hope you had a fantastic weekend and your all well and happy...ours wasn't the best, poor Phil spent most of it at work while I lay around for most of it, not feeling well...so not the best weekend lol...but never mind today is a new week and its onwards and upwards...one thing I did see that made me smile ear to ear though...my Dad needed milk so we headed to the supermarket and decided on a coffee too...in the cafe there was a lot of running about with flowers, champagne and even setting up on part of it as a private party so of course I had to go find out what was going on didn't I, well it would have been rude not too wouldn't it lol...turned out one of the young fellas that work in the supermarket had arranged a surprise for his girlfriend and was going to propose in front of the staff, customers and loads of relatives that poured in over the next couple minuets, so we made a hasty retreat to get what my Dad needed and just caught the proposal and the asking over the loudspeaker too...its ok she said yes...wasn't that sweet...right now onto my card for today, I bet you don't need to guess who this sweetie is by...yes of course he's from Mo's Digital Pencil, this is the adorable Talk to the Bear (Boy)...isn't he just so so cute...I love the look on his face don't you...I coloured him with my usual distress inks and teamed him up with the perfect paper choice for him, these papers are from the Echo Park - All about a Boy 6x6 Paper Pad...I love the colours in this pad don't you?...I added just a single button from the Ice Storm - 25g button pack, the pad and button are from Bunny Zoe's Crafts and I finished with a knotted ribbon to finish...the fab sketch is from the Just Add Ink Challenge and I'm also entering it for the Sister Act Card Challenge and Inkspirational Challenge too...I'm having (another) duvet day today...poor Phil must be so fed up seeing me in my pj's bless him, but I will be back bright and early tomorrow with a card to show you all and hopefully feeling a lot better...whatever your up too today I hope is a fantastic one

Awww, what a sweet proposal! I bet he's glad all the planning paid off, lol.

Adorable card. Love the look on that boy's face, just priceless. And yes, the colours are fab! I sometimes get bogged down in "grungy" or pastel colours, so it's nice to see some bright colours too. :-)

Hope you feel better soon. x
