showtime and surfs up

Morning all! Well its dawned bright and cheerful - lets hope that stays with us! Thankyou for all of your words of encouragement and advice yesterday - I will put them to use and try each suggestion gradually! Thankyou so much - you are all brilliant!

So before todays card - a few pictures of my princesses before and after their show!




I'm such a proud mum - they really were fabulous - both in their performance and their behaviour backstage - go on yer beauties xxxx
Anyway - onto todays card - it features Wayne Waves from Dude time doodles:



So this image has been teamed with papers from the Splash range by Echo Park. A bit smudgy again but I'm hoping I'll have that problem nailed next time I use a digi - thanks to you guys xx
