Happy Anniversary at Little Claire

Good morning all! I'm a happy lady today - My gorgeous hubby came back from his trip to Japan yesterday - so now I have my favourite people all back around me. And thats got to be good right?! Had another good run yesterday too - no run today but I'm hoping to do a class this evening.

Before I show you todays post just wanted to let you know about the August Deal over at craftysentimentsdesigns.



Today I've got a card/box to show you that I made especially for the challenge over at Little Claire - they're doing anniversaries this month and I've been thinking I'd use my swirly cats - but shock horror - they've disappeared - they're not where they should be - finally my laziness and untidiness has crept up with me and bit me on the bottom! Nevermind - I did find the stamp set I used today when hunting for them - so thats all good. This was a stamp set I think that came as part of the monthly stamp club that Little Claire runs - love this club - but don't always use the stamps immediately!!!




The stamps are all from the same set - I think its called 'you're so tweet'. The image has been coloured with promarkers and the flowers are WOC. The papers are from the lastest LOTV range - its the pink pad called 'always and forever'. I think its a gorgeous pad and am so glad its mine - some serious paper stroking going on! Lol! The box was made from a template given to me by my mum - they did it at her craft club - you make the drawer and a sleeve to go around it and finally add the easel on top.

I'd like to enter this into the following challenges:
