Totally Gorjuss # 43 - Aqua (shades of)

Morning all!  The weekend at last, hurrah.  What a funny week for weather it has been in the UK.  Sunny, rainy, sunny and rainy, hailstones, thunderstorms - hard to believe we are still in August at the "height" of summer.

And so to TOTALLY GORJUSS for this week.  Thanks to everyone who took part in last week's challenge - don't forget to check out who was the lucky winner of the Joanna Sheen voucher.  This week our challenge is AQUA and as always the Design Team have come up with some beauties for you to oooh over.  And we are so lucky to be sponsored this time by Lili Of The Valley!

Because I'm a silly old Squirrel, I ended up making two cards

The first card, with Tilda perched on the anchor, is from the new Magnolia range.  Papers are from Wild Rose Studio and flowers are Wild Orchid Crafts. Sentiment stamp is Penny Black.

The second card features a Christmas angel from Lili Of The Valley.  I think the paper is Dovecraft but I've lost the cover sheet so I can't be sure.  Martha Stewart border punch, Anita's sticky ribbon and gems from stash.  Both cards have been done with ProMarkers.

Thanks for popping over for a nosey, and I hope to see you all over at the challenge during the week.

Hugs, Squirrel xx
