Pink Flower Baby...


Probably not a good idea to ask about my first day at work as I feel totally stressed and not a happy bunny at all.  Sigh - not really the job more the silly bus system that means you can't get anywhere fast and can't get anywhere at all early on a Sunday morning.  What happened to the government wanting car drivers to leave their cars at home - some hope in this area!!
Sorry moan over and on to better things like this gorgeous baby stamp by Stampotique Originals  - how cute is that?  I just love this range of stamps designed by Janet Klein - so different and they definitely have the wow factor.
I used our sketch at The Pink Elephant for the layout of my card and the fab glittery paper is from the butterfly stack by DCWV - thanks Lorraine I just love my blog candy prize.
My card is for the challenges at...
  • No time to stamp - flowers and spring pick me up colours
  • Daring Card Makers - holes - not immediately obvious on my card, but I've got a little craze at the moment on putting holes in corners to let the colour from below shine through - just an alternative to brads.
  • One Stop Craft Challenge - fancy edges or corners (not sure if mine are fancy enough but heh I've had a rotten day so let me off please)
This may be my last posting till Friday's Bah! Humbug! challenge as working is seriously effecting my craft time.  Not good at all.
Have a great day everyone and if you don't drive or own a car may all the buses you go for turn up on time and never ever break down half way home!

Lovely Ann, so cute and different to most stamps. I really love the colours you have used so despite a rotten day getting to and from the job, you still manage to produce a beautiful card as always.

Better luck with the travel arrangements.

love and hugs
