Love Actually at Crafty Ann's

Good morning folks, well for a pleasant change i'm not rushing off to work today as I've got a long weekend off yipppeeeeee! The weather isn't looking to clever though so I don't think I'll venture much further than the park with the dogs and my craftroom. I'm getting to be a bit of a hermit these days lol. Anyway before I ramble on any more, its time for a new challenge over at Crafty Ann's Challenge Blog and we've got a bit of a move title theme going on and this time our challenge theme is 'Love Actually'

As always my teamies have come up with some gorgeous projects to inspire you so if you've got a minute do pop over and have a peek at them. Our lucky winner will receive a fabby prize from Crafty Ann's Digi Shop too so don't miss out, you've got to be in it to win it as they say :-)

Apologies for the weird angle of the pic and the iffy lighting, its been so grey and dismal here I've tried using my Ottlite to take my pics. Never mind, not long until Spring and hopefully some sunshine too. 

For my DT card I've used one of my favourite images from Crafty Ann, this one is part of the lovely  Morning Glory set of 3 images (for only £0.60, what a bargain!) and the paper is a freebie (do pop over and check out Crafty Ann's freebies page as there are some beautiful papers and a Scrapbook kit too!

i've stamped the bp with my favourite Chocolate Baroque swirly stamp and embossed with white sparkly EP. The image has been coloured with Graph'It Markers and promarkers, distressed with Victorian velvet distress ink and stamped with the 'With Love' sentiment. I've added some cheesecloth and dotted faux pearls around (to hide the glue - shhhhhh don't tell lol). The lace is from The Funkie Junkie Boutique and the organza ribbon is from my stash. 

I'm entering this one in the following challenges:

Can you digi it: Love is in the air

Crafty Cardmakers: Vintage love

Divas by Design: love/romance

I love promarkers: For the girls

Incy Wincy: Texture

Ribbon Carousel: love is in the air

Stamping Chef: ribbon/lace

Well I'm watching out for the nice man from Tesco with my food shopping (and my chocolate fix, craft mag and a bottle of wine or two lol) and then I'm away to my craft room for a few hours

Thanks for popping by today and for all your lovely comments

Have a good Friday
