For a beautifu lady

Good morning folks, hope you are all well. Wow it sure is blowing a gale here this morning and the wind howled all night so think it will be another day indoors again.

I have not done much crafting this year as I have been suffering with back and hip problems since November so sitting, walking etc are not easy and sadly I have stood down from Lili´s Little Fairies, old Lili of the Valley challenge blog where I spent many happy years on the DT.

Anyhoo onto my card, I have used this gorgeous digi image by artist Morgan Fitzsimons available at Scrapbook Stamp Society/ Addicted To Stamps and she is called Cameo 1.

Decided to use my new Me to You - Spring Chic papers, ribbon from Joanna Sheen and flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts

A wee close up for this gorgeous lady which I have coloured with my copics and cut out with my oval nesties, especially made for my dear friend Betty whose birthday it is today

Hiya folks, hope you are all well and not feeling the cold too much. Weather is a right mixed batch here and I´m trying to muster up the courage to go out shopping.

What do you think to this wee cutie pie, she is called Cyber Mummy Susie by artist Heather Valentin for Addicted To Stamps and only available from Scrapbook Stamp Society

I have coloured her with my copics, cutting out with nesties and layered her onto BG papers. Ribbon is from Stampin Up, Martha Stewart Lace Doily punch for borders and a rub on greeting which I´ve had forever.
