A Big Thank You

A thank you card for my Grandson's Teacher. I used Mo Manning Image coloured with Copics, Whimsy Stamps corner Dies, Nesties and Up Up & Away first Edition Alphabet paper. Really sparkly papers I love them.

Been out in the garden the last couple of days, re-arranging things and making a new flower border. Got to take advantage of the dry weather while we have it. Still got loads to do so hopefully the rain will stay away for a while.

Here's to a Sunny weekend.....

For my DT card this week I recycled a butterfly from one of the Birthday cards I received last week and I added a little doodling with a Silver Gel pen. The card was cut using a Go Kreate die and edged with Brilliance ink pads in the same colours as the butterfly.

I hope you will join in our challenge this week, I'm looking forward to seeing what everyone recycles.
