Spots and / or Stripes at Buckwells Crafty Challenge

Good morning all

Well! I'm here with a first today! - 3 DT cards all in one day 

and this is the first one!

I can't believe they all fell on the same day - it's been a busy week

and what with my grandson Jacob having chicken pox and Toms Uni work it's been a busy one

So to start this marathon - its on with the first

We have the theme of

Spots or  stripes or both

 at Buckwells Crafty Challenge

The minute I saw this image I knew what I was going to do with it

- isn't it funny how that happens sometimes

- other times it's a total blank!

So here she is the lovely Olivia from A lil digi heaven

As you can see I used shades of cream and pinky/brown with a touch of gold

We have a flowers challenge over at Buckwells Crafty Challenge....

.... and I'm sorry to say I'm late : (

Hi all

I do hope you're all keeping safe and warm today - we've had horrible cold windy weather here and I haven't set foot out of the door today brrr...

If you've been around this week you'll know about the new communication aid my son has got this week - the good news is its going well.  We've spent a lot of time this last couple of days getting to grips with it and also loading up some stuff for him to use at uni tomorrow when he goes in.  He has a short film script to write and has to do a short talk on his ideas, so between writing of the script and getting it all set out for him to use he's excited and nervous about his first outing with it tomorrow - I'm certain he'll do well.

Anyway after dinner tonight I suddenly realised that in among all of this I had totally forgotten that March has arrived and my DT post was due for 

Buckwells Crafty Challenge

my very first challenge - not a very good first day impression - sorry Lozzy : /
