Boooo!!!!

Did you get a fright - I know my blog did.

Gosh where does the time go?  June I ask you? How on earth did we get to June so darn fast?  I am sure the calendar fairies are playing tricks, but where-ever I check indeed it says it is June so I guess June it must be.

Well to tell you how fast time goes I made a card - yes its true I made a card, and not just any card, but a card I intended entering in a challenge for a new challenge blog I found.  A blog run by a local company called Southern Girls Challenge .  Well I beavered away and made said card, was pretty happy with it and low and behold I missed the cutoff by 2 days and I swear I had 2 weeks in which to make it.   Shock horror..... what is one supposed to do, suddenly the goal post goes from using cutouts to using wings.  Well actually I was a little miffed as I had gone to so much trouble making it. I had painstakingly cut out all these little pieces to make the banners and finally used a stamp that I have had a while that really tickled my fancy and bugger me, can't enter it......unless.......would it be cheating to add some wings....don't think so.....maybe I will check again.....nope just says "things with wings" no mention of size or quantity.  So now my little card has some little wings.

OH NO....did you hear my cry I took the photos before the wings and I have my temperamental memory card already in the computer and if I take it out I shall have to reboot the computer or the silly thing will refuse to work...oh my goodness......and this is not the blog post I intended either....bother. So hang about while I reboot and retake the photos.  Right now I am thinking at this stage that it would be way easier just to pretend I never made "the" card, just pop it in the envelope to the person its going to, but after all this "the" card will be seen by those who care to look.  I shall not be beaten.....no sir-rie me.


Tuh-dah here it is - take special notice of the little wings won't you.

Lovely card, no matter how it came about.
But at least you are one better than me, I think about a card for a challenge then forget about it until it is too late! You at least make one - even if it is late. lol
