Friends @ Oldie But A Goodie

Hello folks - I'm struggling a bit here with trying to keep up to date with my DT cards while working 7 days a week and all my good work of getting ahead has been caught up!
Just got this one done by the skin of my teeth!
It's time for a new challenge at

OLDIE BUT A GOODIE

and this week the lovely Tracy has decided we should celebrate our

Friends

You can never have too many! I hope mine haven't forgotten me in my absence.

This cute little image is actually a fairly new purchase but my paper is really old so I still qualify! Lulu and her little sister are from Kraftin Kimmie Stamps and I adore them!! The papers are the last few sheets from my Echo Park Be Mine pad but don't fear I bought a spare pad when I cut into the first few sheets! lol
The sentiment is a mixture of rub ons which also have been knocking around my craft room for a while (read years), the ribbon does actually match a lot more in real life - not sure what happened in this photo. I coloured with Copics and flowers are from WOC.

Head over to the main challenge blog for some great inspiration from the Goodie Girls and all the details of this challenge sponsored by
http://www.bugaboostamps.com/

Remenber to qualify for the prize you must 
use an item over 6 month old and tell us what it is

Thank you so much for bearing with me during my busy work spell, I have a lovely little followers candy for you when I find a minute to post it!

Love 'n' Hugs Laurie xx

Pia S said...

This is such a beautiful design. Love how you've left a broad border of blank space, it makes the decorative paper and sweet image really stand out. Lots of beautiful details, yet not "over the top". I think you've done a great job with this card!

This is just fabulous, sooooo very very pretty, great image and layout, everything just stunning. If you were under pressure with this then what would you have produced if you weren't.
Off again myself tomorrow so no internet for a week, back to Filey.
I am pleased that you have been too busy to post or comment as it means that business is good and lets face it, as the saying goes, make hay while the sun shines.
Just don't get too tired though.

Laurie, I just left you a lovely (well thought out, carefully scripted, very funny comment) then I got an error message, so I don't know if it will get to you or not.

Basically I said love your cards, I won't forget you if you don't forget me and see you in September!!

Nope doesn't sound as good this time round ;-)
