I would like to take this opportunity to wish all the mums out there a very "
Happy Mother's Day"! I hope you have all been spoilt with lots of chocolates, flowers & brekkie in bed.
This week's challenge at
Sunny Challenges & Creations has been given to us by
Kris. As well as the sketch, we have to create a card, 3-D project or scrapbook page for
kids!
How easy can it be? Well, not so easy I found out!

Why is it that are there easiest are sometimes the hardiest. Maybe I was thinking too much into it, who knows. I think I got there in the end though, as I am fairly happy with the final result.
The card also fits the challenge over at
Latenight Stampers -
saying goodbye to our Retiring Colours. For both challenges I've used "
Pretty in Pink". This is one colour I will be sad to see "retire", but will gladly welcome the new colours.
What little girl doesn't love "
Pink"! I even managed to sneak some
bling onto it too. Along with the
Pink Icing, I think it is the perfect card for a little girl!
Today, we have no print out for the tutorial - Google is playing up, but the tutorial is below for you, just in a different format.

I needed a Sympathy Card to post out this week, so I dug up one of the rare cards that I saved. I've cased (copied & shared everything) from Sarah Willis I'm not even sure where I come across it or when I come across it. It is quiet an old card as it uses a stamp set from last year's SAB.
