Hi blogworld
First off - thank you all soo much for your very kind words on my birthday / not going to blog for awhile post, what a wonderful bunch of ladies you all are!! Makes me feel much better knowing that I'm not the only one struggling with time constrictions and that you don't mind if I'm not super quick at replying to comments!
Anyway, after having said I'm not going to post I then go and do two in two days! Well this one was not supposed to be here, but I was left all alone on Sat morning while hubby took daughter to do the annual lets buy mummy her birthday present trip and what is a girl to do, other than craft?
I decided to make a card for this weeks' challenge at Divas by Design, even though it's not my official turn. The theme this week is 'Flowers' so any sort of flowers on your entry (flowers themselves, in image, on paper, whatever) and we are sponsored by:
And this is my card:
Front shot, and please don't laugh at my feeble attempt at pleats - it's the first time I've done this and I don't know what she looks like she's wearing! Not a skirt that's for sure!!!
Close up of image - arrghh, even worse for the pleats -

Gorgeous and adorable card Sarah.
Blogging shouldn't be a chore and its for you to blog when you want when you can and its the same for visiting, being a busy Mum ties you up most days especially the holidays.
Just do what you can without feeling guilty and enjoy.
I follow you on my Dashboard so it pops up when there's a new post and you can add follow by e-mail gadget too if you want,
luv
Debby
