Proud Mum!

Have had a great weekend, crafted all day Saturday while the family were all off doing other things then yesterday went into town to see my beautiful and very talented daughter Lynsey May performing a reading of two of her fab short stories in the Spiegletent at the Edinburgh Book Festival as one of Edinburgh's up & coming new writers ( see http://www.edinburghcityofliterature.com/august14.html.) The audience loved the stories and we were so proud of her when people were overheard raving about the reading!



The card I'd like to share today is not for anything particular - not a dt card, not for anyone I know - just made it because I felt like it!  The lovely image is from Make it Crafty and has been coloured with my Promarkers to work with the backing papers which are from Doolicrafts. 

I chose a bunch of challenges and made the card to fit in with them:
Craft Your Days Away  - Birthday celebrations
Creations by Gill M - Believe in the magic
Totally Gorjuss -  Round and round 
Card Makin' Mamas - Birthday cards
Clearly Inspired - Things with wings
Divas by Design - Birthdays
Crafty Ann's - Scallops and or fancy borders
