Good morning all and I hope that you've had a good week. A busy one here, being back at work and school - not to mention that youngest has his mock GCSE exams at the moment too. I think they're going ok - but as most people who have had the pleasure of a teenage occupant in the house, you don't get told very much. I think he feels most things are on a "need to know" basis, and as far as he's concerned, his mother really doesn't need to know lol! He tells me eventually, but I've gradually learnt that the more questions I ask, the more they clam up! So I just let him tell me about school stuff in his own time - a less stressful route!
Anyway, it's nearly the weekend - yippee! And as it's Friday, it's also time for a new challenge over at
CraftyCatz. Our lovely Cindy is hosting this week and the challenge is 'polka dots'. Our sponsor this week is Inky Impressions and I've used one of their sentiments for my card
The backing paper is from First Edition, and the flowers made using a Tonic punch with buttons from stash.
So do have a look at the gorgeous polka dot inspiration from the DT over at
CraftyCatz and then join us with your spotty creations!
Thanks for coming by to visit!
Back soon,
