All pink and girly!

Hello all and I hope that your weekend has been going well?  A bright and dry morning here in our little corner of the UK - and not too chilly either which is great!  And a peaceful morning for us too as, for once, it's just hubby and me (plus dog and cat of course!).  Daughter is still down in Sussex helping her boyfriend settle in to his new Uni as he starts his PhD (she'll be back next weekend), and son stayed at his friend's last night - which all makes a great change from us having the usual 'youth hostel' type house that we have at weekends with various bodies coming and going!  Mind you, much as we enjoy the occasional peaceful interlude, I'm not sure how well I'll adapt when they've all flown the nest - it'll feel very quiet and empty.  I'll just have to do more crafting to occupy me won't I.... lol!

The card I've got for you today was made for a colleague for her daughter and she said she liked 'dogs, cats, pink, purples, glitter, etc' - so that was a really difficult one for me - not! lol!

I've used the LOTV stamp 'A saucer of milk' - such a cutie!  I've coloured the image with copics and promarkers with some added pearly drops

The backing papers are from Hunkydory.  I've added the LalaLand heart banner and some flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts (that have had a touch of glamour dust added!) and a sheer ribbon bow and heart. The sentiment is from LOTV with some gems from stash. 

And the inside decorated to match

And thankfully she seemed to like the finished product! 

Before I go I thought I'd share a little photo with you.  Those who've been following me a while (and thank you for your endurance!) may remember me mentioning Tilly the Dog's best friend Monty, a gorgeous big bear of a Newfoundland dog who lives with one of my closest friends. Well, Monty has acquired a little 'brother' who my friend Sarah picked up this week.  Merlin is 8 weeks old and is the cutest baby bear

Well, I just had to go for puppy cuddles yesterday didn't I?  At least while I could still pick him up!  He's 8 weeks old and already weighs 11kg.  Isn't he cute? 

Anyway, less waffle!  I hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend. 

I'll be back soon,
