And a very good if not frosty morning to you all, I know it's not actually frosty yet but compared to what I've been used to, it certainly is!
I hope you're all well or at least better than me as I seem to have caught something nasty over the weekend and have had to drag myself out of bed to make this post.
Tuesday means one of my favourite challenges hits the airwaves at
and this week is somewhat special for me as Queen Ladybug Kerry and Princess Lisa have handed over the reins and let me choose a challenge!!
Oh the power, I hardly knew where to begin (as if!) I've a list of challenges waiting LOL
With the change of weather and seasons we could all be feeling a touch of
The Winter Blues
So we'd like to see frosty or cold, Blue inspired cards from you this week, easy peasy yes?
A fabulous LCI stamp (to the value of £6.50) of your choice is up for grabs to the winner and remember you don't have to use an LCI image to join in but we love it when you do.
I've used one of my favourite LCI stamps Sledding Fun I love Jack and Robyn they are sooooo much fun! Papers, tree's and snowflakes are all Magnolia, the frosty border is a Marianne die, the image cut out with a nestie and the sentiment LOTV. Navy and white always looks so crisp and clean - love it!
Now this week is a wee bit special at Ladybug headquarters as not only do we have a fantastic challenge we also have 3 GDT spots up for grabs for the month of December!! Head over to the main challenge blog for all the details and you could be joining us very soon!! The girls have been extra busy creating some fabulous DT inspiration for you so pop along and show them some well deserved Ladybug Love.
One last quick reminder, if you haven't bought the November Stamp Of The Month yet, you still have time
Nikki and Buttercup Building A Snowman is available at half price till the end of the month!
Thank you for stopping by today, hope to see you all over at LCI very soon
Love 'n' Hugs Laurie xx
