Good Morning everyone.
When I made the card for today I never envisioned the post I was going to write would be a sad one!
I've come to a decision to leave Stampin' for the Weekend as I've missed out so much on Poppys little life already due to the cancer, treatment and I am now looking at having more surgery in June to remove my Gall Bladder. I'm looking forward to June as I will be visiting my parents and I will get to meet my best mates little girl Abigail Eleanor too! (I'm waiting for the card to dry before I blog it).
Its been a rough and turbulent year and I feel that I need to sit down and craft for me. I have loved being on the Stampin' for the Weekend Team, but when Donna and I started it up, I never for the life of me thought it was going to take so much organising!
So I've stepped down and the lovely Stampin' girls are going to take over from me! I see some changes happening and I know they will be for the better!
My card this week is based on the theme 'Getting to Know You!'
The Stampin' Girls and I would like to see you base your cards or projects on your all time favourite book - or one of your favourites!
The Sponsors this week are Michelle Perkett and Tracey from Spesch Designer Stamps
Michelle is offering the lucky winner a pack of her 12 greetings cards with her own art work on them and a choice of Digital Stamp.
Tracey is also sponsoring the challenge, and is offering some Digital Images from Spesch Designer Stamps.
Tracey is also one of our lovely talented Guest Designers this week, as is Fi. Its her second challenge with us at Stampin, and sadly her last. Its been fun having you aboard hun!
My card this week is as follows:
ALICE IN WONDERLAND!
I have loved this book from being very little. I've read it lots of times, but have lost my copy from when I was at school - I think I will have to buy a new one!
I've used Alice from Spesch Designer Stamps and coloured her with Copics.
The papers are from Papermania and are the black and white Capsule Collection.
I took some inspiration from the following pictures!
