A very merry unbirthday to you!

Afternoon everyone! Hope you're having a lovely day-sun is still shining here so all's good! We're at my mums today as it's her 64th Birthday and because hubby has the day off so he's at home laying our new floor whilst me and Leo are out of the way! Happy Birthday Mum! We've just had a nice lunch together and of course there'll be cake later-what's a birthday without cake right?!

When I first saw these Sweet Pea Stamps by Elaine Cox I had to have the plates-I just love them! They arrived yesterday so I had to ink em up straight away! I thought the Kioshi papers would go perfectly and it seems to be a good match! I coloured the gorgeous image in with my copics-I really had fun colouring it in too! For the layout I used the fab sketch by Martine over at Basic Grey Challenges. Am also going to enter this at Stamp Something who want to see stitching and Practical Scrappers who want to see us using our markers! Here's an image close-up:~

I think that's about it from me today-for all those going to Ally Pally have fun-so jealous-so wish I could be there! I'll be back tomorrow:) If anyone's interested this card is available in my etsy shop:) Have a great weekend and thanks for stopping by!
