Wild Orchid Challenge

Last day off before I head back to work, now that’s thrown me into an extreme case of depression lol. I have loved being off work this past two weeks, oh to be a lottery winner!!

Today sees the first challenge for 2011 at Wild Orchid Challenge blog. And the challenge is a sketch provided by me. There is a fab prize up for grabs too – check this out!!

prize

I’ve used another of those adorable Ellie from Stamposaurus. lazy-ellie

I’ve used some Elline’s Huis In the Meadow paper. The gingham ribbon is from The Craft Fairy. The lace and flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts.

lazy-ellie-1

The sentiment is from an old Stampin Up set (I think it’s called Riveted) – I picked it up off Ebay when it was almost impossible to get hold of circular stamps. Now with all the fab circular sentiments by Lili of the Valley we’re spoilt for choice lol.

I am off to try and cram 3 days into today to make the most of my last day of freedom lol.

hugs

    Me too - I'm really not looking forward to getting up in the dark and going to work again tomorrow after nearly 2 weeks off. Still, at least it is raining today, which is a great excuse to spend the day inside doing lots of crafting!!! Great card Bev.
