Red,Pink and White LO.............

I love pink and red together and this week over at CR84FN their colour challenge is red,pink and neutral,perfect.


What a great inspiration board,love that cake !!!! I decided to do a LO for this colour challenge as I haven't been doing any scrapbooking lately. I also used a sketch that I found on Kirsty Wiseman's blog,she does an online crop every Wednesday evening 8-10pm on UStream and the sketch was last night's challenge. If your on Facebook check out Kirsty Wisemans Wednesday Night Online Crop and join the group. I only discovered it this morning and will hopefully join in next week. I LOVE this sketch !!!!!

 Here's my LO:


The papers are The Girls Paperie and Crate Paper,the punched border is using a Martha Stewart punch and the pink alpha's are from The Girl Paperie sticker pad,love these and have a few now,there are so many elements in one book.
We had some gorgeous weather in the U.K. over the weekend so spent a lot of time outdoors and not in my craft room but I did do some crochet while I was sat in the garden. I started a cushion cover and have nearly finished it so will show you all in a couple of days.Here's a little look though of the colours  I've used.


We also visited Bewdley over the weekend,we had some lunch by the river and then went into the town to look at some of the quaint shops. I went into an antique/interiors shop and bought this cute handmade quilt and cushion for the garden bench,I just couldn't resist.
