I survived the Slumber Party!!!
Hi all,I made it through the slumber party Friday night......lol.......though very exhausted.On the Thursday night I didn't get to bed until 4 am, I was doing some last minutes things and finishing the pirate cake.I knew I wouldn't be able to get it done as I had to pick two of the girls up at 10.30am that next morning.The girls were really well behaved and spent most of their time in the pool,they went to bed at 2.00am Friday night and I got to bed about 2.30am,just to make sure they were all asleep.....lol.....On Saturday all but one of the girls were picked up by 11.30am and I had the last one until 4.00pm.Both Friday night and last night I tried to get on the computer to check out some of your blogs and I kept dozing off,I never do that.....lol.....I did sleep in until 11.30am this morning,I was so very tired,it all caught up with me.I still feel a little bit tired,but I think I should be fine by tomorrow and all caught up on sleep.

Anyway,I did mange to make this card yesterday afternoon.I need to make a few Valentines Day cards and I decided to make one using this cute little image from Karen's Doodles.I just love Karen's images and the detail is amazing.I have purchased a few of Karen's images and can't wait to use them.The one I used on this card was my free image.Karen is giving all who follow a free image of their choice until February 1st,you can check out the details here,read all the posts so you can get the correct email address.To get this image Karen wants you all to stay followers,which I think is very fair,besides its not cool to follow for the free image and then stop following........so please be considerate.I used last weeks sketch from Sketch Saturday to make this card,I knew I wouldn't make the challenge but I loved the sketch and wanted to use it.The gorgeous flowers are from Bizzy Becs,I love these flowers.I also got the leaf punch from Bizzy Becs,but I need to check if she is still stocking them.Well,I hope you are all enjoying your weekend.We have had a nice cool change today and its perfect for cardmaking.Thanks for stopping by.
