Tilly with Presents & some HAPPY news

Whoa, I'm a bit late with my post today, mainly because I've only just made my card!!!  Whoops!  I started off colouring a Bella the elephant image, and managed to spoil the same image twice, so I eventually gave up, and instead chose my favourite Tilly the dog image instead.

I'm also using some gorgeous Wild Rose Studio papers, and I matched the colours of the papers in the colours that I used for the image.  I think that the purple and aqua look lovely together.



Happy News:
I also have some lovely news to share today.  I was thrilled to discover in the week that I had been picked as the winner of Jacque's Sunday Sweet Stuff last week.  It was such a surprise, and to say I was delighted is an understatement!   She's such a lovely lady and has been through lots of battles with breast cancer, but if you've not been over to her blog then make sure you pop over and read some of her posts.  She's just shared some happy news that now her treatment has ended, she has found a new lease of life, and she's also discovered Zumba!!  I'm so pleased that she's winning her battles and thank her for her generosity in her Sunday candies.  Love ya Jacque, and I look forward to reading more of your successes. Thank you honey, and I'm so grateful for your generosity.

Netty...this is such a cute card. I really like the colors of the striped Wild Rose papers that you've used in the background. I also like how you've matted and stacked the cardstock. Your little Tilly is so cute, holding the presents that are colored to perfectly blend with the papers. Congrats on your blog win, too! Thanks for sharing your card with us at Simon Says Stamp and Show. <3 Candy
