SC 079/13....

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!

Inside Card....

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.
