Have a CAS-ual Friday!

We made it to Friday!

I was a little shocked when I started to write this post as I realised it was my third card in a row that mainly used colouring! You will know that colouring is not my favourite card making technique but I do keep trying and this week I had a lot of fun playing with my copics.



When I was making my bubble bath card yesterday I came across the gardening stamp I used for today's card. This year another one my my resolutions is to grow more vegetables and flowers on my terrace and this card is to represent this but with a focus on the word 'Friend'. That is my word for the challenge at CAS-ual Fridays. This year will be a special year as card blogging friends will become friends IRL! Kylie who I met through our wonderful community is coming to stay with me in London, all the way from Australia! We going to meet up with a number of other crafty friends, none of us have met IRL! Plus my blogging friend Nonni and I are talking of meeting up either here or in Finland! So 2014 the word is 'Friends'!
Isn't the crafting community such a wonderful place to meet new friends and build relationships across the world??
I am also entering this into the 'CAS' challenge at Copic Marker Europe

Have a fun day xx
