Run rabbit, run rabbit, run run run

Evening peeps, apologises for not being on recently, my neck and shoulders are playing up again so it is hard to get in the mood to create.  I had made this card at the weekend for my Auntie, she had kindly knitted and donated some bunny rabbits and a scarecrow to The Brionni Trust for us to sell on our stall.  The cute wee bunnies she had done gave me the inspiration for this card, so I dug out my Sugar Nellies stamps and hunted for this image.  The backing paper is a freebie from a magazine.  The picket fence is a diecut from Marieanne Creatables (there is a different story .... lol..). Tools used are my oval scalloped Nesties and Swiss dots embossing folder.  The challenges covered are:-

• The Sugar Bowl - Anything Goes
• Sketch Saturday - sketch
• Top Tip Tuesday - Initals (K- Kraft, P- pink, H- hare ...lol .. Ok, bunny - worth a try!)

Seashell Sanctuary

Afternoon peeps, sneaking on again today - shhhh! Don't tell you know you ...lol .... Now it was just yesterday that I spoke about me being a wee bit accident prone and so far it had been a non eventful year in that sense...well .... I spoke to soon ... This morning I noticed that the tiny tear in the kitchen limo had got a bit bigger and putting my DIY hat on thought I had nothing better to do than "fix it". My bright idea was to glue it down flat and that would be problem solved .... not quite, I forgot how quickly super glue works and so very nearly, and I mean very nearly stuck myself to the tube and the limo.  Now the floor has a ripple it! ....lol ..... my finger tips feel so weird with a rough layer of glue on them ...lol.
