If life boils your kettle......



Good evening from a cold South Africa
It have been snowing a bit the last couple of days in our central mountain areas and I really hoped for some in our town as well, but I doubt.
But none the less, I have used the time to craft a bit. It is my mother-in-law's birthday next week and she loves tea. So, when I saw this freebie over at Sandi samples, I had a thought of her. She is a crafter in her own way. She can do magic with a piece of material. So I've used embellishments and paper that resembles her craft. She also loves pink. The paper is mainly from my scrapbook stash. The flowerpaper is from the "All about girls stack" from DCWV. I've also used some lace.
I am entering the following challenges:
There she goes clear stamps TSG 117 - Sketch
Use it Tuesday Challenge 12 Two fer - the buttons, paper and fastner I've bought some years ago to be used someday....that happened today.
Aud Sentiment Challenge 33 a sentiment to make some one smile thinking of them. This sentiment comes from one of my placemats, and I do find some encourgement from it whenever I read it.
Charisma Cardz Challenge 29 sunshine colours.....I saw a photo of a watermelon, a summer fruit, and used then colours scheme for this card.
One Stop Craft Challenge Week 14 - Recipe challenge - 1 ribbon, 2 patterned papers and 3 buttons.

Hope you have a joyful day.

Such a sweet card with the summery, watermelon colors - must be quite different for you in a climate where you're experiencing snow! TFS!
P.S. I found you from the "Use It Challenge."
