Good morning my lovely fellow bloggers, I think I'm back in a routine and I actually made a card! I was a bit late as I seem to have got all confused and lost a day this week and I had to photograph it at night which is never a good thing with a flash! If you think I don't know what I'm talking about there is a good chance that I retook the photo this morning!
Its time for a brand new challenge over at
and this week our lovely Pami
(who I'm going to meet very soon) has chosen the theme
Handmade Flowers
Now Pam is a bit of a whiz at handmade flowers and churns them out faster than interflora, but as all of mine come from Wild Orchid Crafts it was a bit more of a challenge for me!
I used my poinsettia die from Magnolia Doo Hickey and blue glitter card from DCWV, a Martha Stewart border punch and I coloured the super image from LOTV with Copics which are available from Stamping Scrapping Central
Our fab sponsors this week is LOTV and they are offering the lucky winner this fabulous prize

This is a really cute card (I love LOTV) but unfortunately you must mention a product that can be purchased at StampingScrapping.com which is a requirement of the challenge. Please join us again for our next challenge on September 12.
Laurie: our sponsor has required: "Remember, you must mention the item(s) used in your project that can be found at Stamping Scrapping." She does not require that you link to the item or the blog, that would just be icing on the cake. This information can be found at the top of the challenge blog. I'm glad you're enjoying my digis, I love doing them. There are lots more on my blog if you search previous posts. If you change your post, you will be eligible for the prize cuz this card rocks.
Hi Laurie, my goodness that is just so pretty! Love the colours and the image is really cute. The handmade flower is lovely as well. Thanks for joining in with us this time at Divas by Design. Sarah
Simply fabulous hun....!
