Good evening my lovelies I thought I would pop on & give you an update on things. I have managed to get around to some of your blogs today but I will try to catch up with everyone tonight hopefully or in the morning. My dear Fudge has been really unsettled today really clingy & wanting to be near me & Craig all the time, she has also being sick & panting heavily. Anyway it looks like she is in the 1st/2nd stage of labour so hopefully this time tomorrow we may have baby puppies. So its a night in the living room tonight for me & Craig just incase...... To be honest we have no idea how long this could all take!!!

I will put piccy's on once they are here my lovelies & if I dont get round to you please dont think I'm ignoring you cus I would never do that & I will catch up with you all.

Well I'm gonna go now I will keep you up to date on the Fudge labour saga.....oooooh gosh wish me luck I've never seen puppies been delivered before hubster has but I havnt so I'm gonna be quite amazed by it all lol. Honestly you should see my face when I feel them moving around inside her & she is even bigger than when we took the photos, I'm sure she gets bigger every day you know lol.

Right I really am going now lol.

Big squishy hugs to you all mmwah

It is Saturday so of course its time for CES Challenges & this week our lovely Claire has set the challenge

SPARKLY FLOWERS

We want to see all your sparkly flowers.......so get some glitter out & those beautiful blooms & come & join us. I was hoping my new stamps had been here as I had planned to use one on my card for today as it would of been perfect. Instead I have used another one of the gorgeous stamps I got the other week.

Of course this is 'Tilda In Summer Rain' from the new Rainbow Collection

Twill Sentiment & I've attached Tim Holtz Mini Pins to each end.

The beautufl lace I won off the uber talented lovely Elaine

Sprayed the flowers with Pearl Glimmer Mist & then sprinkled glitter on to give plenty of sparkle.

The leaf is cut with a Marianne die out of kraft card. The butterflies are punched out of ribbed kraft card & then glittered up & gems added to the centre.

Tilda has been coloured with copics, I coloured her last week so I can only remember some colours.

Skin - E13 E11 E21 E00 R20 R11

Dress & Umbrella - R0000 R000 R11

Bits of shading added with W3

I added glossy accents to the umbrella to make it look wet & to the puddle & rain drops.

All done in my fave colours.........

Final piccy in its box which I made........most of my cards go in boxes so nothing gets squashed on the card.
