A little snail, a Cheeky Monkey and a Valentine!

Hope you've had a great weekend ... I've just had a lovely evening at my wee niece's first birthday party!  We'd plenty of lovely grub and Birthday cake and Pass the Parcel with pressies for everyone! I haven't got any birthday pics yet, but thought I'd share this one of my nephew ... do you think he looks like an angel or a cheeky monkey??
(in case you're wondering the red 'thing' is a wee plastic fortune telling fish that was in a Christmas cracker!)
Oh, and before I forget to show you, look at this lovely Valentine card I received from my fab bloggy buddy Benzi ... its the first Valentine's I've received in over 20 years that hasn't been from Greg!  Sorry about the really pants photo, it doesn't do it justice!  Thanks Benzi!  I love it!

Anyway, on to the details of my wee card .... the snail image is an oldie digi from Sweet'n Sassy, but I think it's maybe been retired.  Coloured with copics and the shell and the butterfly both covered with clear gloss and purple glitter.

Darling card and I love your punched, left side...or maybe it is just your paper came that way. Whichever, it's lovely. Handsome nephew will a sweet smile. Oh, I'm glad that Valentine got there on time. Going out of the country takes a bit of time.
