Still Sunny!

Morning all, and a Happy Friday to you.  Hope your day is a good one.  Mine started well enough - the kid with the VERY loud music (through headphones, you can hear the lot) missed the bus.  I should feel a little bit guilty about smiling as the bus pulled away but it was a stress free journey!
It is a beautiful, sunny, autumn morning and the forecast for the weekend is more of the same.  Which is fab as on Sunday morning we shall be trotting up to the end of our road to watch the Tour of Britain cycle past, yippee.
Anyhoo, just before I start work I thought I would show you this that I made last night

I said to a bloggy friend a few days ago that I had thought about selling my Maggies as I have not used any of them for so long.  "Get them inked" she said "you'll fall in love again".  And do you know what, she was right (again)!

Ingredients for this card are:
Stamped Image - Magnolia - Tilda (don't know her name)
Medium - Distress Inks (ReInkers)
Papers - DoCrafts Wellington Bear pack
Corners & Leaves - Whimsy Dies and Marianne Designs
Sentiment & Ticket Stamp - LOTV
And the challenges for this card:

And as much as I would love to enter the WITHOUT WORDS Autumn Challenge, I think the DT would soon disqualify me.  But that doesn't mean you can't enter - challenge runs until the end of September!

Hugs Sxx
