Cute Card Thursday - Happy Anniversary

Next weekend my slightly bonkers but much loved parents celebrate their 51st Wedding Anniversary. So what a perfect week for me for Cute Card Thursday to be offering this great challenge

Now they say that necessity is the mother of invention - I didn't have a piece of card long enough to make a traditional easel, so I stuck two pre-scored cards together to form a sort of tented easel - no measuring and no folding. And I'm patenting that idea!  It will be known as the Squirrel-Easy-Easel LOL!!

Lili of The Valley image, rough colouring with Copics to keep that sketchy feel, papers are PaperMania Regency Collection, deep red pearl paper for mats and hearts is from stash, Martha Stewart Heart punch, Flora Doodles flower, Pebbles Inc Candy Dots for stoppers, sentiment done on pc.

Three posts in one day, I need a lay down now - might just do that, in front of a rugby match!

Earlier posts today were:

Totally Gorjuss # 22 Ribbon and
Boing!

Passion For .... Cute Card....Cupcakes!

Happy weekend everyone!  At last, the sun has popped out from behind those miserable clouds and doesn't it simply lift the spirits?  Toad, on the other hand, is very miserable because we have a case of "man flu", poor little soul, he does look a bit pathetic this morning.  As you can tell, he's getting buckets full of sympathy!

Anyway, to the challenges ..... this little fella is for three super challenges this week:
Passion For ProMarkers All Creatures Great And Small
Cute Card Thursday Spots and Dots; and
Cupcake Craft Challenges Four Legged and Furry 

For this I have used House Mouse "Autumn Cruise", coloured of course with ProMarkers, the papers are Cosmo Cricket Early Bird, the sentiment is Cuddly Buddly and the flower is Flora Doodles and Prima.  I had to take a chance with the leaf shapes, because they are not leaves at all.  I really must get my hands on that fabulous Sizzix branch die.

Thanks for popping over, see you again soon I hope.

Hugs
