Morning Peeps.
I didn't do much in the way of crafting last week and expected to not finish this card in time. Yesterday morning, I started getting a bit twitchy, so as Very Understanding Hubby was home, I took myself into the Bat Cave.

Monday morning means time for a Cupcake, and this week, Jane has chosen Sew Mad. We'd like to see stitching, Faux or Real. Because I was hurrying a little, I opted for Faux. We are sponsored by Paper Pretties for the first time this week and don't forget about our three monthly sponsors; Crafts U Love, Mo's Digital Pencil and Sew Sweet. Hop on over to Cupcake for all the details and to see the fabby creations from the rest of The Cupcakes.
Monday morning also means time for a new Challenge at Pollycraft, this week, sponsored by My Mum's Craft Shop. Emma has chosen Recycle, and I really had to think about this one. In the end I went for some packaging from a packet of mango smoothie lollies for the image and matting and some ring pulls. Sweet Cheeks was very happy for me to open the lollies, but it took me a while to drink enough cloudy lemonade for the flower! I've used Codi Stylin' from Pollycraft Designs because she's funky enough to pull off a flower like this! Pay a visit to Pollycraft for all the prize info and to see the gorgeous work from The Pollies!
Thanks to you all for your love for Sweet Cheeks. He is much more comfortable now and not feeling quite so sorry for himself. :)

Fab card, Fluff! Love, love, love your ring pull flower - that's got to be a sign of something alien in your brain (I'm thinking cute cuddly alien like ET rather than the Sigourney Weaver variety) to have come up with the idea. Amazing! Hugs, Lesley
Wow, Faye - your ring pull flower is inspired!!! Hope they were from cans of ready mixed G and T's!! Think you might have to make a few more of these!! Your image looks gorgeous too on the recycled packaging!! Juliexx
