First Kiss...

Hello all - yippee it's Friday! And an extra loud 'yippee' from me today as it's our end of term! Yay! Apologies to all those still working, but the last couple of months (and especially the last couple of weeks) have been so busy that I'm just celebrating the fact that I'm now OFF for a while.  There often seems to be a sort of mad rush before the end of term, but I'm sure that seems to have been intensified!  But anyway, I feel as though I can now breathe a big sigh and start to chill - a takeaway is on order (yum) and a holiday drink will also be on order later!

I'm hoping that I will gradually have some time to catch up on all the little jobs that need doing, the crafty projects that need finishing - and more especially, time to catch up with friends, both the ones in the real world and the ones in the blogging world!  So please forgive me for being a bit absent in the last few weeks but after being busy at work on a computer all day, I've tried to keep my 'puter use at home to a minimum (or the headaches hit me hard!).

Anyway, I thought I'd share a card made recently for my lovely daughter Lauren's birthday - and features one of my oldest and most favourite rubber stamps from Sarah Kay called "First Kiss"


I've coloured the image with copics and promarkers
The backing papers are from LOTV, with flowers from WOC. The sentiment stamps are from LOTV - although I realised when I looked at the photos that I'd cut off part of the 'Sent with love' sentiment in my picture - and I'll already posted the card so couldn't take another pic! 


Hope you like the card and the sweet image! 
And I hope you enjoy your weekend - and get some relaxation time too! 
Back soon,
Kim x
