I'm so cute


These cat earrings were given to me by a friend when I lived in Saudi Arabia. She knew I would never wear them as I am allergic to cheap metals but thought I might use them on a card.





I've used gingham paper which is a favourite of mine .Some handmade flowers and a cute little girl. The rest of my day will be quiet as my lovely husband is away on business so no cooking for me tonight .


This card is for -

Southern Girls- challenge 2 - Recycled jewelery .My little cat face.
Colour Throwdown - challenge 111- The colour plate above . The 'River Rock' was a bit tricky as I didn't know where to use it. The two blue flowers are made from the same border paper and edged with blue.
The Lollipop Ladies -challenge 4 -It's all about Gelato or the colours. I've gone with pink, blue and a krafty beige. I just hope we didn't have to use all the colours shown on their blog.
Tuesday Morning sketches -challenge 60 which isn't a sketch but 'Handmade Flowers'.
Scrappy Frogs - challenge -Flower Power -make your own flowers.
