The Sugar Bowl Challenge

This year sees another challenge blog starting up and this one is using a particular favourite brand of stamps of mine, Sugar Nellies! The first challenge over on "The Sugar Bowl" is a sketch by the ever talented Tiets.

Here is my card for the challenge.

The papers are all by Hot Off The Press. The stamp is the lovely Sugar Nellie coloured with Twinkling H2O's and the sentiment and eyelet are from K&Co. I also Cuttlebugged the blue bit but it doesn't show up very well on the photo.

P.S the British Gas man is here and he thinks he knows what the problem is! Here's hoping we shall have heating again very soon because I'm cold and it's so hard typing with my fingers crossed! Lol!

P.P.S. The Gas man has saved the day - we have heat again!!!!! Hurray! The problem? A frozen pipe would you believe. I can feel my toes again, bliss. :-)
