What a Hoot!

Good evening everyone!

Had a great day today. I managed to sell one of my old chicken houses yesterday, so I was allowed to go shopping today! I ended up going to three craft shops in total as none of them had everything that I wanted!
One of my purchases was the new Country Companions Lovers Lane paper pack which I've used on this card:

The fab image is another digi stamp from Pink Gem Designs its called 'Love Hoot' and I've coloured it with Promarkers. The papers as I mentioned earlier are from Country Companions Lovers Lane. These new designs are delish, and some come with glitter on too! The ribbon and the hearts were in my stash.

I'm entering this card into the following challenges:

Sketch Saturday- Sketch
Crafty Cardmakers - Use red and a die cut

So thats the weekend over again :( it flew by as fast as the week did!

See you soon
