SWEET ROSIE.....................................

Morning all!

Woohoo it's the weekend and it's not raining! but it's soooooo cold brrrrrr and will it ever warm up lol!
Well I have recovered from my first day back at work, I was really tired yesterday and I think it's gonna take me a couple of weeks to get back into the swing of things hehehe. But at least I'm back and I'm only working two days this week, nice and easy and I still have some time to play in my wee room :o)

So onto today's card and I have used a gorgeous stamp from Lili of the Valley (another un-inked stamp, bad,bad girl!) and I have teamed yet again with some gorgeous papers from Pink Petticoat. I have used dark purple/plum ~ a colour a hardly ever use but I think I like it ~ what do you think??

This sweetie is going into the following challenges :-
Lili of the Valley # 86 ~ A fab sketch by Bev


Rosie with Cake ~ Lili of the Valley

Have a fabby day and do loads of crafting :o)

    Have a lovely day with Bexx, I love going girly shopping with my Eve with have a fab fun time.
    Your LOTV card is lovely. I really like the purple. I don't use it either, but not 'cos I don't like it but because sometimes you cannot match other stuff with it. You have made a fab job of it. Glad work was ok, you will get used to it again soon. Have a nice weekend. Debbiexx
