You're Wonderful

Hello all you lovely peeps around the world. Hope you are all having a lovely Easter. We had a little easter egg hunt for Payton yesterday what her mummmy & daddy did, she was sooooooo cute looking for the eggs in her garden to put in her basket ;0)

Anyway I'm here with a card that I made months ago but only the base of the card if you know what I mean. Sometimes I see papers when I'm looking & think oooh I could do that............so rather than put them on my desk I make the base of the card & then it goes in my drawer.............where I usually forget about it lol. Well its better than having loads of papers on my desk which would annoy the pants off me ;0)
The image however I only added 2 weeks ago...........yeah its still took me til now to blog it, sorry lol, its not the only one either...oops
Yes I've done an Hannah Lynn card, I actually have a few older ones coloured up & one from the last release but they still havn't made it to cards yet. 

The papers are Prima 'Madeline' I think they are called, I would go look but I have a doggy asleep on my lap lol..........it would be cruel to disturb her ;0) I used the 6x6 & the A4 pads for this. The edgeing is my MS PATP set. I finally got most of my punches up on rails last week woo hooo.........yeah the craft room took back stage while we are getting on with the bungalow & garden...........though thats not started quite yet lol.

Ok we have a mixture of Prima & WOC flowers, the die under the smaller flowers is Marianne 'Branch Forest'. The Rose Cabochon & the silver butterfly are from Crafts & Me, I also added white gesso to the butterfly.

The centre large flower I sprayed to soften the colour & to totally soften the bright yellowy/orange in the middle.
The gorgeous image is a new digi from Crafts & Me called 'Expression Study 2' by Hannah Lynn & I coloured her with Copics, I will add the colours at the bottom when I find my little book. The 2 laces are from my stash. The sentiment 'You're Wonderful' is from LOTV 'Handwritten Phrases'.

I'm sorry I've been quiet the last few days I've been suffering with lots of headaches & migraines since Thursday night so I've been keeping off the laptop, although I tried go on Pinterest the other day..........half an hour later I was lying in bed with a towel over my head. Hopefully I will manage some crafting tonight.

Well I'm off as I'm going B&Q while they have the offer on Buy One Get One Half Price on interior doors, I want one for my kitchen & one for my living room, they are half glass ones so will allow more light everywhere.

Okie dokie I'm going now, hope you all have a wonderful Bank Hol monday, take care mmwah.
Thanks for stopping by it really means a lot lovelies

Stunning colouring and stunning card! The fancy shape layered on the square base looks fab :-)
I hope the migraines have eased off now - I suffer too and it's so frustrating trying not to do anything to aggravate it... especially if it means no crafting :-(
Big hugs, Kat xx

I too have several cards still waiting to be blogged, but no pre made bases, that's such a fab idea! Love too see some pics of Paytons Easter adventures. My kiddos had such fun too. Hope the headaches settle soon hun, I have awful times with those, so empathise completely!! Big hugs, Wends xxxx
