All pink and girly - again!

Hello all and I hope that you've been having a good weekend? Thankfully the weather has been kind to us - with dry days, some sunshine, and not too cold! Yippee!  And yesterday morning I managed to plant up two young trees that I'd bought and had delivered which cheered me up - even though my son looked at them later on and said that they looked like two big twigs....! I admit they don't look too impressive at the moment - and possibly do bear a passing resemblance to two 6 foot twigs!  But I'm hoping that in a few weeks time they'll look a bit more like trees!  Sadly though I started with a migraine in the afternoon which then lasted until this afternoon - and made me feel thoroughly grotty. I'm starting to feel a bit more human again now, but they always leave me a bit washed out. But I'm hoping if I get a good night's sleep tonight then I'll be back on form tomorrow.  As my daughter pointed out to me, it wasn't a good house to have a migraine in today, what with Jack on his guitar and my hubby pulling carpet up and hammering floorboards (we're getting some new carpet tomorrow!). Sigh.

Anyway, I just thought I'd share a card with you that I was asked to make for a colleague for her sister


I've used a Wee Stamps digi and coloured her with copics


The backing paper is from LOTV, with some pearly card. The sentiment was done on the computer and mounted on a floral ovals Spellbinders die cut. The flowers are Spellbinders blooms together with a Joanna Sheen leaf die cut, with added pearls, ribbon and lace from stash.
I hope you like it.
Back soon,
Kim x

Bearly Mine - one for the girls

  25. Hi Kim, awwww that is sooo pretty! Lovely image and your colouring is just great - I notice you've been using Copics, have you given up on the Pros then? I've changed over completely, and even sold most of my Pros since I started using the Copics!!

    Hope the the DIY is going well!
