Sketch and Stash Challenge 26

Hi Everyone!!

Hope you are all coping okay with the awful UK weather? the snow has started to melt a little here, but we keep having little snow showers which is just turning straight into slush... I think thats worse than the snow and ice!!
We are due more apparently over the next couple of days....sigh!!



Wanted to join in with the sketch and stash challenge this time, as I just LOVED the sketch....

My new stash is: The gorgeous Sugar Nellie stamp, the yummy papers ,and the pearls (all Xmas Pressies).... my neglected stash is the chipboard flower... I bought them AGES ago from hobbycraft... but have only used one out of the pack!!! they come as plain board and you cover them, so i've used papers to match, and sanded the edges.... think I need a little more practice at that though...;)
Thanks for looking.... and look!!!! I used it!!! (thank you, you know who you are!!!! xxxx)
