Another missed challenge

Oh well, here we go again, yet another missed challenge. I did this one for Friday Sketchers, but with rushing to get away down to Harrogate this weekend I forgot all about posting it :(pink-gem-autumn-millie

I've used Autumn Milly from Pink Gem Designs and had to use these MME papers 'cos I got my new kit from Crafty Feeling - oooh it's the best one yet, totally gorge. LOVE the colours in this kit - perfect for this time of the year and the green flowers are particularly gorge (most of the green flowers I have are naff and I tend to not use them whereas these are so yummy). The ribbon, buttons and leaf pin are also from this months kit. The orange flowers were from an earlier kit, they were cream so I just sponged them with orange distress ink and they took the ink beautifully. The little bling butterfly is from an earlier kit as well.

The sentiment is from Whiff of Joy - I just love their sentiments, there's always the perfect sentiment for any card I am working on.

Thanks for stopping by,
