Monday Monday

Well hello there! Thanks so much for all of your kind comments yesterday - and just to let you know I completed the 25km moonlight walk in 4 hours and 10 minutes - and I'm still standing!! We were so lucky - after the downpours of Saturday we actually had a virtually rain free walk! Amazing - so thanks to all of you for your well wishes!!!

Welcome also to Jo and Caroline - my two newest followers - its very kind of you to follow - and I hope I don't let you down!

Well today my crafty friends, I have a card to share with you that I made at Rascals Play area on Saturday. Its not such a good environment to work in as my usual playbarn but this is what I managed to come up with.



I used the second of my new LOTV stamps that I got for my birthday and some papers that came free in an edition of Quick cards about 3 months ago. I coloured the image with promarkers and stamped it onto some of the patterned papers to created 'paper pieced' wings for the butterfly. I followed a sketch from over at the willowsketchiechallenge and also my favourite colour scheme which is blue/green and orange. I have used 3 different papers from the pad, 2 different ribbons and 1 sentiment so would like to enter this into the 3-2-1 challenge over at papertakeweekly. I would also like to enter this card into the liliofthevalleythursdaychallengeLOTV challenge at Lili's little fairies which is In the Garden this time, the willow sketchie challenge (sketch and colour combo), the paper piecing challenge at allsortschallenge Let's go fly a kite at jellyparkchallengesJelly Park and child's birthday at audsentimentschallengeblog.

I will be back tomorrow with a DT piece. Hope to see you then! Big Hugs Rachel xxxx
