A bright Monday Morning

Warning you will need your Sunglasses for this card.

I've used the Cosmo Cricket papers Delovely even tried inking the edges to try and tone it down. I've finally managed a couple of challenges, Just Magnolia - In the Garden and this weeks Friday Sketchers sketch although once I started it sort of had a mind of its own.
The leaves for my dinky flowers is a Martha Stewart snowflake punch cut into three, I saw a lady called Joanne (sorry can't remember the surname) at the Glitter Pot demo it and they're perfect for small flowers punches.
I used the MS lattice punch cos it reminds me of trellis and it needed flowers growing on it and them I thought I how cute the standing flowers look. At this point I thought I better step away from the card cos it was all getting OTT.
The ribbon believe or not is a perfect match but somehow the camera is not liking ribbon at the moment.

Hope everyone had a good weekend, we had a family roast dinner and a chat about the big Holiday which looks like everything is booked. DS has booked us in The Bellagio with a room with a view while he and DD are booked into the cheaper Luxor. DD has booked for us all to see Cher, the Helicopter is booked with a pick up at the Hotel, the car is booked. DS has confirmed he's booked a Hotel in Venice Beach LA, although he and DD are sharing so that could be interesting!

Just love all your cards Debby. Yours is the first blog I look at every morning when I open Reader.
The lady at the Glitterpot was Joanne Gelnar and you can find her blog here - http://joanne-mainlyflowers.blogspot.com/ Very talented lady who has only quite recently started taking workshops herself and, I believe, that was her very demo weekend. I met her when she were both attendees - at Jane Gill's FPC classes.
