Cath Kidston Card ...........

Hi everyone, well I had a few lovely days at Craftaganza and made some lovely craft projects and learnt some new techniques, I will show you some pictures of my projects soon.  However my lovely days away were soon forgotten when I got home as by the time I got back Saturday night my little Grace had started being sick and by Monday evening I was spending the night in hospital with her on a drip as she had acute gastroentertis.  I am so glad we only had to spend one night in hospital and Grace improved enough to come home the next day.  I only got about an hour's sleep when were in hospital so I was in bed at 6.30pm last night!  My little Grace is on the mend now but its going to take a while till she is properly better.

So this is a card that I made a few weeks for my husband's auntie.   I am a bit of Cath Kidston fan so when I went Christmas shopping a few weeks ago in York I brought some wrapping paper from the Cath Kidston shop and I thought it work well as backing paper for cards which is how I have used it here. 

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Thanks for stopping by, I hope to catch up with you all soon.
Hugs Lynsey x

Materials:
Paper - Cath Kidston Wrapping Paper

    Poor little Grace!! I hope she's better really soon.

    I love Cath Kidston! So much so, that I can't part with my old Nokia mobile phone that's a Cath Kidston limited edition. Can hardly see the numbers on it now, lol!!

    GORGEOUS card!! The flower looks fabulous with the beautiful paper. Look forward to seeing what you made at Craftaganza!
