Sunny friday

I've been playing again with my lovely C.C.Design stamps, I just find them such a joy to colour. And as I found an unused paper pad (and to be honest I haven't got a clue how long I've had it either, but I'm sure it's not too long as it wasn't at the bottom of the pile!) I thought I'd play along with the ABC challenge this week.

I'm entering my card into the following challenges:

Allsorts - challenge 51 sketch

Crazy 4 Challenges

Oh well I started off well, blogging and crafting, but as usual I've stopped doing both. I thought I'd better have a play with one of my new stamps (I say it's new 'cause I haven't used it before and the poor thing was getting covered in dust!). This is my first time to join in with Crazy 4 Challenges, but as it's a new year and my new quest for doing more crafting I thought why not. The challenge for this week is 'Birthdays' and I have a list of birthday cards to make for this month I decided to use this card.
