Busy Weekend

Hi all I thought I would have got to make some cards over the weekend but I had so much on my Mam had to bring her car to the NCT test on Saturday so I had to go with her, then she wanted to go food shopping in M&S and we ended up going for lunch then and having a look around the shops bought nothing :( Saturday evening I spent making my orders for the many people who order cards from me in my area and then I went over to my friends we made gorgeous pizza mmm :) and watched Black Swan it was a strange but very good film. Sunday I spent making the rest of my orders and baking gorgeous sugar cookies with my Sister. I just logged into my email this morning and found that the 1st card that I entered into Meljen's pink and red competition had come in the top 5 so here is my badge Im so happy I never though I would be picked for anything so thank you Meljen :) 

My Badge yay !!!

My 1st Challenge Card :)

Well what a cold and damp day it has been here in Dublin and im only just finishing work so I can't wait to sit down and put my feet up and watch a bit of telly :). I have made my 1st challenge card today yay !! It's a card that I have just designed in the last half an hour and I am goin to enter it in Meljen's Designs Challenge #42 Pink & Red and aslo in Ooh La La's 3 of a kind competition. For my card I coloured Meljen's Freebie bear with promarkers, the paper is from papermania but not sure what range :(. I used an x-cut heart border punch & some just pots funky flowers with some sparly gem centers. Well that's all for tonight hope to make some more cards in the weeks ahead and enter some more fab competitions. All comments welcome thanks. Mandy xxx
