Make a wish!

Hello all and I hope that your week has started well - and that you're not one of the poor people affected by the terrible floods we've been having in the UK.  I can't imagine how awful it must be for these poor people and my heart goes out to them. We've just lots of rain here but thankfully no flooding - although yesterday was a lovely cold crisp day with blue skies!  Sadly, it didn't last, and we're back to grey clouds, rain, hail and sleet this morning. Sigh.

Our French exchange student has returned home to Lyon safely - we waved him off at 3.30am on Saturday!  And via the wonders of t'internet, my son has heard from him and he's back home, tired, but had a great time here - thank goodness!  I'm just hoping my son has a good time when he goes to stay in France with him and his family in a few weeks time!

But in between doing the laundry and getting the house back to normal (whatever that is!) I managed to make a card on Sunday. I recently bought some sentiment stamps from LOTV when they had an offer on and used one of them for this card

The papers are from K&Co and I've also used LOTV background stamps on the panels, together with some distress inks. I've added stitching, some lace and the die cuts are a Marianne heart and the LalaLand banner.  So quite simple, but I like the effect of the layers and 'shabby' look.  Mind you, with a scrummy combination of gorgeous papers and wonderful stamps, it doesn't take much effort on my part to make a card lol! 

Back soon,
