Daring Cardmakers Challenge

Hi Folks...and you won't believe the day I am having...my computer crashed and I have had to reinstall my whole operating system but at least I am back online....will have to work all day today and get all my other stuff installed.....I am not a happy bunny right this minute but more about that later.
The challenge this week on Daring Cardmakers is from the lovely Vanessa and is a colour challenge......

BLUE and GREEN
Scalloped Cardstock.....Craftwork Cards
Papers & Topper: Bo Bunny.....Collection
Flowers from my gorgeous parcel from Dawn
Buttons and Twine from stash
Sentiment: American Crafts Foam Thickers
Wow.....the Men's Final.....exciting or what......I was on the edge of my seat....a real nail biting battle of the Titans.....I was so willing my hero...Roger Federer to win but couldn't help supporting Andy Roddick too....he just never gave up....like a dog with a bone....he fought for every point.....and then when Roger finally triumphed....well I was in bits.....all the emotion just came pouring out.....hubby was rather bemused....tears of joy for Roger and tears of sadness for Andy......what a day and what a finish to a wonderful Wimbledon....roll on next year and hey hoping to be there....little Sis is celebrating her 60th and like me is a big tennis fan.....so perhaps that will be my birthday treat if I can get tickets.
The weather is still absolutely glorious here after a weekend weather forecast of cloud and rain.....am loving it but I do wish it would cool down at night.......definitely feeling a bit wilted and beware any burglars....enter the bedroom at your own risk.....sleeping in my birthday suit and woke up this morning with the sheet nowhere to be seen....I guarantee it won't be a pretty sight.
"The Budster" won't be announcing the winner of his Birthday Challenge until tomorrow...sorry folks...
Hugs Kath xxxxxxxx

  8. Loving the blue and green, Kath.. Works great!

    With you on the tennis.. Loved it! Just a pity it wasn't Murray v. Federer. Still, as you say, Andy Roddick did a good job, too.

    Hope you get your tickets for next year. Actually being there is a totally different experience! You'll love it.

    Hugs,
