Good morning from a freezing cold Kent... but I think the sun is trying to break through... so rumor has it :)   I have had a toot week.. evicting unwanted house guests, who decided my airing cupboard was a much warmer place to sleep than the fields... no pay .. no stay....    Also my poor mutly dawg, had to have a few toothies out.. but, has come out of it far better than I did lol... my nerves have been shattered to say the least... but ... apart from now having a dodgy phone line... all is gradually getting better !!!!  Thankfully.   as have my deadlines with Design Team work, and need to get back to my craft room. Luckily.. this card was made well in advance,  a first for me LOL...

So onto this weeks challenge at Bearly Mine Challenges, and the theme for this week is

RIBBONS, LACE, TWINE...

(and apparently you can use, one, two or three of them for your card, I do wish someone had pointed that out to me at the time !!! ROFLMAO, spot the twine !!!!! ).. (stupid here thought you had to use all three!!!)..and didnt find it easy on the last bit... lol  live and learn !!!   As per, some fabby prizes to be had, from our wonderful sponsers, and this week they are.

A just because card :)

 
Afternoon all from a very dismal and wet Kent.. :(    Thought I had already added this card to blog.. opps... oh well, better late than never. I actually made it for a DT card, then realised I had not read the destructions correctly lol  so it become a just because card. :) 
 

The image is by Sarah Kay, and oldie but I was rummaging through my stash, and realised just how many of my stamps had only been used a couple of times, and also, just how long ago that was.. So.. this year I have decided to try and get a bit more useage out of them.  Or , what is the point buying use once, and store?  I do think the introduction of more and more digis is half the problem, too many to blooming choose from, thats my trouble... spoilt for choice lol.

All the gorge papers are by Bearlymine Designs, flowers from stash and pink ones made using punch,
Copics used.  E01,00,000, 11, 13, 15, 17, 18,
R00, 01, 04.  B0000, 000,00, 1, 2, 4. G20, 21, 24 and 94.

and.. I have JUST realised I have not put a nestie shape inside for writing on !!! opps.. lol.. so back to the craft room it is then lol.(any excuse to go and play) :)

Will be back soon... take care, hugs J x
