I had some wrapping paper that reminded me of it. I used one of the Hero Arts sketches for June's challenge. I stamped the Hero Arts flower in a variety of inks onto yellow and orange card and cut with the corresponding dies. Die cut some little circles and added some multicoloured gems. Sentiment also a Hero Arts one, fitting into one of the themes in the challenge as well. As I used wrapping paper for my background, it's an entry in Die Cut Diva's June challenge as well.
Here are some more photos from the weekend

I'm feeling really tired tonight. I had to get up at 5.15am this morning to head to a work Forum that started with a 6.30am breakfast. It was out by the Airport and took me 40 mins to drive there.... the Forum started at 7.30 so we could be finished by 3.00pm as some of the participants had 2 - 3 hours drives back to their home towns. A full day of listening to different speakers and hearing our future plans for our area at work... so the brain is feeling like mush tonight.....
But an exciting bit of news is that our daughter is flying in for a very short visit.... in early tomorrow morning and back to Perth, Sunday afternoon. We are having a family dinner to celebrate my birthday ( a few days early). I am looking forward to have the family together. I am going to spend the day tomorrow with Emma, do some shopping, visit some of her friends.
Hope you week is going well.
