My Little Sanctuary: Belated Birthday

I have got a bit behind over the last week and missed a couple of birthdays. I have been looking after the grandchildren a bit more than usual and school holidays and before you know it the dust is an inch thick lol.
Sorry l have been a bad blogger and not got around all your lovely blogs but hope to catch up later this week x
A belated card for my friend Carole, l will see her on weds when l go back to Zumba for the first time since David's accident last April - hopefully l will get back into the moves.

Penny Black stamp coloured with Stampin Up pens
Pearls and glamour dust added.
Polka dot background stamp
Ribbon, lace and flower added.
I would like to enter this card into the following challenges.

Penny Black Saturday Challenge 189 Pearls and Lace
Totally Papercrafts 104 - Ribbon & or/Bow
Crafty Catz 120 - Favourite Things - has to be glitter and sparkle
Allsorts 142 - Anything Goes
CES 73 - Spots & Dots

This is Esther - she decided to wear her yoghurt instead of eating it, l had only turned my back a minute to wash up, Esther rolled up he sleeves and tipped her entire yogurt on her tray and covered her arms and face - her face was lovely and fresh after l cleaned her up - perhaps l should try it too x Susan x

Good luck with the Zumba, me thinks you might be a bit sore if you haven't been back since last year. Finally Esther, hmm, what can I say? Why do kids love to clart themselves in food? (Dictionary may be required for that one!) Jx; 22 February 2012 at 07:29

Little Esther is beautiful and you can't blame her for wanting to get an early start with face creams lol, they say yogurt is good for your skin lol, she is gorgeous.
