Evening everyone, this is my entry for this weeks PBSC. This weeks challenge is 1 circle, 2 papers and 3 flowers. My eldest son who is 11 says that I have used 4 flowers because of the sentiment. I just said "oh well to late now" bless him! He is really good, if I am struggling with colours or anything, and not sure if they go together I always ask his opinion.

I have made it as a Thank you card for my neighbour Jenny who is looking after my cats and everything when I go on my hols shortly, yes I am being organised!!

My recipe: PB slapstick stamp coloured with Pro-markers, circle nestie, papers freebie on mag, sentiment Craftwork cards, all other bits from stash.
