Some Exciting News and a Sympathy card ... Moxie style!

So, my exciting news is that I made it onto Melly's DT for her new challenge blog .... Dream Valley challenges
 Raise The Roof 1 Whoo Hoo! 
Our first challenge starts this Sunday (27 Feb) and it will run for one week, but normally challenges will be fortnightly ... and there's some fab prizes to be won too!  So I'll see you back here on Sunday (if not before hee hee!) for deets on the very first challenge at this brand new challenge blog!


I've just realised I don't have any sympathy cards in my stash, so here's one inspired by this gorgeous cushion, this week's Tuesday Trigger at Moxie Fab World.  My flower is from http://www.onefourzero.co.uk/ and I think it's one of the very first stamp sets I ever bought!  Coloured with copics (though I wish I'd coloured the purple slightly lighter) and added some clear gloss and glitter to the flower centres.  Silver peel off sentiment and purple gems to finish.

Also for Lexi's Creations challenge #34 - flowers

Can't wait to get started working with you at the Dream Valley DT :)

As my family comes from Ireland, I can't wait to get to know you better. I have all of my family's old photos, including pics of my grandmother's visit in the 70's to visit our family that is still there, I hope to have pics of me doing the same one day!
