What a day!

Well, after having a nightmare of a day at work....won't go into details or I may not stop venting(!)....I thought I would try to de-stress with a bit of crafting. I am hoping that I can do a little more during the week and complete in a few more challenges. Tonight I thought I'd make a couple of birthday cards as I have made lots of Christmas cards recently. My first card is for the Papertake Weekly challenge which is 'Anything Goes' and I'd also like to enter it into the A Spoonful of Sugar challenge which is to include some kind of stitching (real or faux!). I have used an adorable die cut image from Lili of the Valley-so cute! I have finished it off with a few flowers, card candi and stickles.



My second and final card for tonight is for the Lili of the Valley challenge this week which is this fab sketch. I used another really cute image from Lili of the Valley and finished it off with a few flowers, buttons and card candi. I have also used a little butterfly that is from Prima which I have been dying to use for ages!




Thanks for looking at my creations. Hope you like them and enjoyed visiting my blog!
