Sunny Sunny Sunday

Doesn't it make you want to smile when you wake up on Sunday morning and the skies are blue and the sun is shining ??!! : ) That's how I felt this morning, so then I came downstairs, made a latte and quickly made this card. I already had in mind what I wanted to do. This is a combo challenge. Over on DCM this week the challenge is all about quotes. You have to use a quote on your card: http://daringcardmakers.blogspot.com/
So I found this little quote about sisters which I love. I thought I'd make a card for my little sis just to tell her how much I love her. She's such a sweetie, we are so close and when we get together it really is like being kids again, I love abit of sillyness and giggles now and then. The quote is : A sister is a little bit of childhood that can never be lost - Marion C Garretty.
The sketch that I've used for the card was a sketch over on CPS.

There's some really good ideas over there.
These papers are so lush, I adore these colours...BG Romani...fab collection xx

Yesterday was supposed to be a work day, although I managed to get some work done, I also made Fiona her journal set ( see below) which she loved when I gave to her last night and I made this LO too. Ade's been playing with his new camera and took some shots of the children and I. Makes a change for me to be in the piccies.
I used a sketch that I found on one of my fave blogs 'nunu toolies'. Kazan created a beautiful LO using the sketch http://nunutoolies.blogspot.com/. The sketch is from Scrap 4 life, I can see myself becoming a regular over on there now too: http://lifeitswhywescrap.blogspot.com/


I've used October Afternoon papers and the little jornaling tag too. I absolutely love these papers. They have quite a countyfied feel, but using the most beautiful and quite vibrant colours.

Thanks for looking....better get some sorting out done in the house now. xx
