The very talented Jeni  one of my fellow Sassy Cheryl team mates has made my day by awarding me with this Liebster blog award.

Thanks Jeni :) 

The idea behind this award is to give it to people whose talent you admire but feel they do not get the recognition  they deserve, 

so please do not award this to anyone with say 1,000 followers.

If you have been TAGGED and would like to take part, all you have to do is post the blog award above on your blog and link the person who gave you the award ( also let them know you are accepting the award by posting on their blog ).

Then you can choose 3-5 people who you think deserve the award and post their name and blog links on your blog.

For now I will choose three blogs I admire and think deserve to be shared.

I was given this beautiful lady digital image recently by Claire of Claires cards and am only getting around to using it today, I love how elegant she looks so created a card to look like she is out for the evening for a very special occasion, I coloured with pro markers and paper pieced the dress with patterned paper,I stamped the chandelier and chair on patterned paper and

embellished with crystal bling, I didnt add a sentiment yet but will when I decide who I am sending it to, I think this image would be perfect for a birthday, debs night, "thinking of you" card or a  a "just for you" card.
