I have been on a bit of a paper flower fix this week, I was trying to made a hellebore/christmas rose like the ones in my garden..........

(this one is a bit dead after a day on my desk!)  my three greens are: Artichoke chaud, old olive on the Paisley petals DSP border punch and dark green leaves from wild orchid under the flower.  The petals on the flower are from the fab build a blossom SU punch, yellow liquid pearls in the center and tiny beads.  I swiped the petals with ink and drew the lines with sakura gelly and stardust pens.

This week at Less is More for week 29 the theme is

Things that Move

This could be interpreted in a variety of ways...an actual moving component on your card, so a pop up, a shaker, a spinner, a charm, a tag... we could go on... "

On the other hand your card could have an image of something capable of movement, so the scope for that is almost infinitesimal!

My husband asked me to make a card for his neice/goddaughters 21st birthday (GASP) and I wanted to do something 'girlie' and that would fit the bill for LIM (as the purse opens) as I really enjoy trying to come up with something each week and I only have time to make one card today.  Whilst there is quite a lot of white space, it isn't that simple.... Sorry Chrissie & Mandi :-(

I used: AR designs SVG cutting file for the purse box/money holder and mat, Papermania DP and glitter card, tonic butterfly punch,Wild Orchid Crafts seam binding and bling, Craftworks sentiment, card scrap scraps from stash.  I would also like to enter the Ribbon Girls Challenge, using ribbon

We took Toby for his 4 week post op X-Rays and everything is going well, the plate is where it should be, the bone is healing well, the leg is flexing correctly and he does not need the anti-inflam pain killers any more! Hooray.  We can also take him for walks on the lead around our field which he has really missed, he is getting terribly bored, bless him! Only 4 weeks to go until the final X-Rays and exam now and then he can be off the lead for walkies, I can't wait :-)

Oh well I'm off outside to put down some more rat poison as I saw 2 huge ones yesterday near my worm compost bin.................. Gosh I lead an exciting life!
