Need to relax!

Hello all and I hope that your weekend is going well?  A little cloudy here with a slightly fresher breeze - which is very welcome today as it means I can get some things done rather than loafing about like a limp lettuce leaf.  I wasn't very well on Friday with a mega migraine that started in the early hours and lasted most of the day - and yesterday was like the hangover from the migraine!  Wish I didn't get these damned things! But just hoping I've got things out of the way as him indoors, son and I are going away at beginning of the week for a week or so - leaving daughter in charge at home with the furry friends (or should that be fiends!). There will be a few scheduled posts from me during the week - but I apologise in advance for not visiting blogs and seeing all your fab creations and I'll try and catch up with everyone when I'm back at the end of the month!  Just hoping now that I can get jobs done and get bags packed ready to go.  I'm currently trying to make sure everything is washed and ironed for taking and stopping everyone from wearing their stuff!  Getting ready to go away brings out the sergeant major tendencies in me (bit like when Christmas is approaching!) - and I go into major organisation mode with lists of things to take, 'jobs to do', things to remember!  Once I get in the car or on a plane then I relax - but before then I have my head buzzing with so much rubbish about what needs doing!  "Chill Out Kim!"

Anyway, just a quick card to share with you today. I was lucky enough to win a challenge over at My Craft Creations a couple of weeks ago and the prize was a fabulous Hunkydory cardmaking kit.  Now, I don't really do kits - especially as my passion is stamping and colouring - but I have to say I am impressed with the quality of the card, colours and printing and the die cut toppers and decoupage and lovely backing card means quick card making!  So handy when you need to do something at short notice!  So a few of these will be appearing over the next couple of weeks as with being away and school holidays, crafting time gets somewhat reduced!

Now this looks relaxing! Think I might have to do this later today when I've finished faffing about! 

I've simply added some ribbon and clear dewdrops to the toppers and card and - hey presto! - a cute card! So simple! 

Anyway, I hope that your weekend is a relaxing one - and I'll try and get around everyone's blogs before I log off for a few days! 

Back soon,

Kim x
