Live, Laugh, Love

Welcome friends, it's Saturday morning so It's time for a new challenge today at Allsorts.
This week is our lovely Helene's turn to host and she would like to see 'Sentiment In Focus', not my usual style, so thank you Helene for making me push the boundaries, I enjoyed doing this.

As you can see from my creation that for the theme the main focus has to be a sentiment/verse, mine is an Indigo Blu sentiment which I love, I thought using just white with a bit of pink looked effective and elegant.  And although this is not my usual cuteness and with no colouring I really enjoyed making this.

Lipstick And Candy Sticks

Welcome and here we are at the start of a new month, but for me that also means my Son starts high school on Tuesday, we are all ready and uniform washed and ironed ready to go.  He has to have everything washed before he can wear it as he has allergies, and new clothes irritate his skin. This really has been a quick six weeks and I'm going to miss having him at home.

So it's a new month for Stamping Sensations and Penny black & More @ Allsorts challenges, if you didn't get the chance to join in last month's challenges these could be the ones for you.

At Stamping Sensations this month the theme is 'A Colour Inspiration'


I've gone with the colour scheme for my card, but in my photo the colours look deeper than in real life, and I went totally girly with lipstick and cute mice

Here are the prizes for this Month:-
