Hi Blogging Friends...
Today it's the turn of In The Pink - we have a new challenge starting and the theme is
Now - when I DON'T want my cards to be cute.... (when I think they're possibly a bit arty.... ok - I know it's not often!) I get lots of lovely comments saying 'how cute' etc... Sooooo you'd think it'd have been easy for me to find what I thought was a 'cute' image or stamp in my mahoosive stash.... NOT SO!
But I did look though my collection (ok - more of a library!) of LOTV stamps and came up with this one that I knew fit the 'cute' bill completely! And I decided to go less CAS and more shabby chic... I kinda managed it I think as I ended up quite pleased with how it turned out...
Materials:
Image - LOTV Baby Girl
Papers - Maja Design
Dies - Spellbinders Square, Spellbinders Captivating Squares,
Tim Holtz Alphabet

We're off out today to meet up with a lovely friend who I've known since our children were young... I can't wait to have a good natter and a catch up - though I think I'll have to take some throat sweets with me to keep the voice-box well lubricated.... this cold has left me a bit husky!
Big hugs....
