City Crafters Challenge and Play date Cafe......

Hello my friends... I missed you


We had a wonderful time in Majorca and I feel rested and calm - I think everyone has a place to heal ... maybe this is my place ... overlooking the beautiful bay of Palma.
Liverpool today is cold, wet and windy and already I am missing the mediterranean.... But it was good to come home to my beautiful son... I think he missed me... we stayed up late talking.... and it was meaningful... maybe thoughts were troubling him, but we got to hug and I told him how very much I love him - he was and always will be my greatest blessing in life. I hope he will always know that - 


I am so grateful to City Crafter Challenge Blog for bestowing a spotlight on my last challenge entry ... and so proud to be able to show my badges - Thank you!




This weeks challenge at CCCB is a 'Recipe' of one ribbon, 2 papers and 3 flowers - this weeks host being Linda - (check out her blog here and see her beautiful cards) and Jane Wetzel is Guest Designer
Her work is incredible - 


My card is also for the Play Date Cafe challenge with this inspiring picture and colour palette - please stop by and see the beautiful inspiring work from their design team...

I chose to make a vintage card with my hand made vellum flowers for this challenge....







.....coated in glitter....... 



One more thing before I go - I received my gift from KraftyKirsty's Etsy shop.. so lovely! Thank you Kirsty, and I also received a huge pad of Core'dinations card stock following my entry to Caardvarks challenge here ... Thank you to Caardvarks and to Core'dinations I am truly grateful.

Have a lovely day and keep safe...
Till soon

Ros
