Hi to a fab Saturday! I hope all of you are well and happy too. Onto my creation which is especially for LOTV who are celebrating their 10th Birthday next month....what a great time to celebrate, the weather has definitely picked up and it's party time. I've been very lucky to have won a lovely bundle of stamps last year and this is my first inking of 'my birthday cake' from their baby set. Absolutely wonderful to colour with my Promarkers and I stuck to a pink & red theme as you can see. I love this one so much, she'll be needing a little stool to blow out that candle...pink paper is digi d/load from a magazine, the number is stamped with some clear stamps from my stash, sentiment is from Simon says Exclusive stamp sheet.

Hi, it's April already and what wonderful start to the month here, I hope everyone had a great weekend and raring to go. My card is using a fantastic HM stamp gruffies 'pebble & friend..finding friendship' coloured with Promarkers. It's hard to thank someone with just a simple verbal 'thankyou' when you know they've gone out of their way to do more than that. I think this says a little bit extra. Paper is a Summer Driggs old digi paper, sentiments from American Crafts.

The inside has a little of the paper and some doodling. Challenges...Natalie & Amy, HM, Papertake, CCC 2nd, Crafty Catz 2nd, I Love Promarkers, and used  a sketch from Sunday Sketch #191, they're also celebrating a birthday with a hop! Enjoy a lovely evening.
