A new addition and a RAK! Lucky me:-)

I have wanted a puppy for quite sometime now but thought it was best to wait till the kids were a little bigger so it would be easier! So now all the children are all at school it was time! This is our new little puppy Lu Lu! How cut is she! Just need to stop her crying at night and she will be perfect! Mind you it's only day 3! Wish me luck! LOL!

A week or so ago I went to my letter box this beautiful card and gift was in there! This RAK is from Lynn Powell from Australia! Click on Lynn's name in purple and check out her fantastic blog:-) How lucky am I!!!! Thanks soooo much Lynn! The soaps smell fantastic! And you have used my Favorite DSP too! Love it, love it, love it!!!!

Sweet Sunday Sketch # 84

I love Karen's sketches! I haven't had the chance to do one for a while so it was the 1st thing on my list for today! I already had the little butterfly's cut from my last card so I had to use them up! I have again used some of the scraps I have lying around! I am counting down till my 1st order arrives from the new catty so I can have a play! Can't wait till I have some new stamps and accessories!!! It will be like Christmas! Any who if you get the time zip over The sweetest thing and try the sketch or just check out Karen's blog, you won't be disappointed!

Thank you for the emails asking if I was alright after the earthquake! I am not close to it but Christchurch is where my dad lives! His house is a little damaged but he is fine (maybe just a bit shaken!) Thank goodness!!!!!! As of last night he had power and water on but no sewerage and probably won't have that for a while!

Recipe:

Stamps: Inspired by nature

Ink: Chocolate chip

Card: Chocolate chip and Baja breeze

Accessories: Beautiful wings embosslit die, basic pearls, beautiful blue taffeta ribbon and scallop trim boarder bunch
