Pixie Dust Paperie Challenge

Hi there ... invigorated by my previous challenge ... I created a Layout for the Pixie Dust Paperie challenge .... set by Chief Pixie ... Kirsty ... who did this  amazing sketch ...


I have to say that this is a first for me ... I've never done a LO for a challenge ... nor ever followed a sketch for a LO  ... and actually I found it easier than I first thought ... 


This is one of my favourite pictures ... taken in Cornwall when Mikey was about 12 or 13 ...
The three of us were inseparable ...


How I wish I could re-live days like that ...


How we miss our beautiful Kelly ...
But just making this took me right back to that moment ... How time flies

Till soon

Pink Christmas?

Ok ... so Jingle Belles Rock challenge this week is a colour challenge ... Pink ... "PINK" and green ... here 'ya go ...


Bet you thought you had me on this one girls! Heck I thought you had me on this one!!! 
Me? do a 'double' pink Christmas card ... huh??**!!**
But not one to quit (yet) ... I rummaged through my enormous stash that is somehow filed in a wardrobe of my brain and knew I had the supplies to make something ... just needed to find the earthly wardrobe ...  
and here it is ... my attempt


Now you ... like me ... may be asking where on earth I got that florescent pink reindeer from ... blowed if I know ... I can but assume that I saved it in the hope that 2 ladies would come along and create a blog called Jingle Belles Rock and set a challenge to make a Christmas card using green, light pink and dark pink ... (us Capricorns are very organised didn't you know ...)


... and prone to jumping out of the box every now and then ... 


AND I know exactly who to send this too ... I got the cutest prettiest card from a friend last Christmas ... apart from the pretty snowflake charm ... it didn't really say "Christmas"


See? ... so I reckon she's up for pink ... don't you?

Have a lovely day
