My Final Spotlight Challenge card

Good morning Ladies,

Welcome to August Ladies, as I said yesterday I can hardly believe it's August already, there are 21 Weeks or 147 days until Christmas!  How scary is that!!
I will be starting Christmas card challenges VERY soon!!

Today's Spotlight' Challenge card is made from another Lilli of the Valley Card topper, this time I used a punch to punch out the sunflower head and popped it onto a 'Early Esspresso ' (Dark Brown) scalloped punched mat to raise it up and highlight it.
I used rectangle dies to cut the card topper and the base card, which was made by die cutting two pieces of Early Espresso card the same size, scoring a line about half inch down from the top, I added glue above the score line and attached to the other piece to make my top folding card base, I placed a Daffodil Delight matt between the topper and the card base to pick out the yellow in the sunflowers.
I stamped my sentiment into the top corner and added ribbon and a bow to the bottom of the card.
I hope you like it and it gives you a little inspiration. xx

Lynda had a fantastic idea for any of you struggling with this weeks challenge, she downloaded some colouring pages from internet, they probably have them on Pinterest, worth a look if you are struggling. Thanks Lynda for the idea xx

Sue came over yesterday as always we had lunch and got straight into some crafting, Sue was getting her 'Groovi' on today, starting a really lovely card.  I managed to get two cards made, I am starting a pile of cards to share while I am on holiday, it's rare for me to get past making one card in a day, so two in an afternoon is a miracle, I really love how one of them turned out, it's so pretty!
I think we covered most topics possible, I always wonder what anyone would think if they listened in to our chats, we well and truly put the world to rights!  hahahaha!  Thanks Sue for a lovely afternoon xxx

A exciting day today, Lucy, Sophie & I are going holiday shopping, I was tearing up as Sophie got so excited that my wheelchair would fit into her car, she was so pleased that she could take me out bless her, they had asked me earlier in the week if I would be able to come, I had to explain that browsing round lots of clothes shops on my crutches was just not a viable option, it's too far and I would be in agony, which was why she was so delighted when my wheelchair fit into her boot.  So I am very much looking forward to spending the day with both of them.

I hope that you all have a lovely day too,

Love and hugs to all of you,

Sandra
