I hope you're having a great Saturday, we went for a big breakfast with friends first thing this morning which is one of the best ways to start the weekend :o) (& means I don't have to cook later which is always a bonus!)

& New Release Time at All Dressed Up

As I haven't had so much time for crafting recently I've only been able to be on one DT but what a wonderful team it is!  I love being part of the All Dressed Up design team & getting to use Wendy's gorgeous images & I especially look forward to her new images each month & this time I chose (though it was a hard choice) "For You" & I coloured it with chalks.  I used various scraps for my stash & and added a bit of ribbon & pearls.  

The challenges:

Crafting With Attitude - Anything Goes

Chocolate, Coffee & Cards - Fancy & Feminine

Little Red Wagon - Digi Do 

Love to Scrap - Do a Double Take

Karleigh Sue - Ribbon &/or Flowers 

Card Mania - Pastel Colors

I hope you've had a lovely weekend & it hasn't gone too quick.
