In the words of Cyndi Lauper...

'Girl's just wanna have fun...'

I love this new stamp from Stampingbella, it's just made to be paper pieced!

The current LIM Challenge is a recipe: 3 of something, 2 of something and 1 of something. The inspiration cards from Mandi and Chrissie once again are gorgeous.

For this card I went with 3 - Flowers, 2 - Girls, and 1 - Sentiment.

Sorry the photograph is terrible but I can't find any useful natural light in the house, and it's too wet to venture outside.

Thanks for dropping by!
