This card was inspired by three challecnges Firstly the sugar bowl sketch and distressing ....mine seems a bit neat ...will have to get the hang of that it,s the first time I've attampted it , luckily i'd just bought a distessing tool to have a play.http://sugarbowlblog.blogspot.com/
The second challenge is Cute card thursday PINK and GREY the papers are SEI and Laura Ashley and the ribbon is off the tags of some bargains I got from the next clearance at the weekend!! The Digi stamp is The Greeting Farm "lilli head"http://cutecardthursday.blogspot.com/2010/01/challenge-95-pink-grey.html

This is the front, inside and back of my mum's birthday card. It is made from a paper bag decorated and I will make a small book mark to slip inside the opening. This will be my final post tonight ...I still haven't managed to link my party bag to the challenge site but I can feel my eyes getting heavy. This is a late night for me already i'm usually asleep by 9.30 that's why I don't get anything done.
Thanks for looking.

Oh and I used my Martha Stewart hearts punch which i adore I must get some more .... so many things to buy so little time.x This is my fav card that I made mainly because It's for Amy and I know she'll love it for the dogs....http://quixoticpaperie.blogspot.com/
