Ok, I promise this is my last post today.
For all 3 of my cards today I have used my huge box of scraps, I'am determined to use at least half before I start any new pieces of paper/card. It's actually quite a neat little challenge I have set myself.(Only because it was overflowing and I couldnt close the lid) ;-)
Anyway here is the sketch fromwww.sundaysketchandstamp.blogspot.com I have used for my my card

I have flipped it

the cute image is girl with kitten from jellypark
sentiment is lili of the valley
dies are spellbinders and joy crafts
