Good Morning and Happy April Fools to you all, make sure your wits are sharp and don't get tricked!! I'm busy working, well working but not sure I'll be busy!!
I'd much rather be in front of the fire crafting today but I have to do something to earn my crafty spending money and I do enjoy spending money!!
As I mentioned it's the first of the month (Geeez it's going quick) and it's time for a brand new challenge at
HECK OF A CHALLENGE
This month before she left us Lisa M choose
Just Add Water
Just before I show you my card you might like to know that we are looking expand our DT and have a DT call on which you can find all the details to on the challenge blog. It would be great to have some new play mates!!
I've used the uber cute 'Waiting For Rain' from Mo Manning, these images really colour up so lovely, and this isn't the first time I've used her lol I love it when that happens - it just doesn't happen very often!!
The fabulous papers are a new purchase, couldn't resist them I'm afraid, they are from 'Stampin' Up' there is a link to the lovely Zoe in my side bar, she is soooooooo helpful and lovely!
The little duck was a button, I cut the back off with my wire cutters. The photo isn't very good I forgot to put the macro on, so as I was so close it's a bit out of focus. I've used my trusty bow maker to shape the lush bow - I'd be lost without that little tool! I did have a sentiment on a cloud but I took it off as it just wasn't right!!
Head over to the main challenge blog for all the details of the challenge and some gorgeous watery delights from the DT and we have a couple of stunning GD's joining us today, so please show them some love.
