Take Me Away
Good morning everyone today is the 1st June and that means it's the first day of Winter here in New Zealand and Sweet Sketch Wednesday. They said on the news last night that April and May were our hottest Autumn months ever recorded in history and it has been very warm. I think today the weatherman knew it was the first day of June and the temperature has dropped a little as I'm feeling it this morning. This weekend it's a long weekend to celebrate the Queen's Birthday Weekend, I'm so looking forward to it as I'll have both my boys home this weekend. Liam thought that last weekend he was being big and mature and wanted to stay at Boarding School for the weekend, I was a little upset but knew that he had to try it for himself. He thoroughly enjoyed himself but we have all missed him so much, I also think that this week will be a long one for him being away for a fortnight from us, when I spoke to him last night he was missing us and couldn't wait to come home this weekend.
Congratulations to all out winner this week there were some awesome cards with just so much details and creativeness.

Embellishments: Instead of using paper for my green strips in the sketch across the top and bottom of the page I found this awesome ribbon that was sheer and had circles of blue and silver I knew this would work perfectly with my image and paper I was using.

We had a long weekend a few weeks ago - we celebrate Queen Victoria's birthday and last weekend it was Memorial Day in United States. It's amazing how we all have so many different things to celebrate.
Such an adorable card - I LOVE all that sparkle and glitter!!! A real beauty!
Have a great long weekend.

Hi Kathy, It is so hard when our kids want to stay somewhere and not come home. I am sure you will enjoy having him home this weekend. They just have to be so grown up. I love your card this week. And, I have been loving the glittery embellishments you have been using on your cards. They have added such a nice bling. The little circles and flowers tie in so well with your image. Super sweet Kathie! Have a wonderful week!
Hugs, Nancy
Hello Kathie, you are right. Your sheer ribbon is so perfect with your image. It looks like bubbles. What a fun image to use! I love the blue and silver with the touch of fushia. Lovely feminine combo. Love the glitzy look of your card! Have a fun weekend with your family.
Hugs, Judi
Kathie, this is one tub full of sparkly bubbly goodness!!!! Such a fun, cute, and fabulous card!!!!!
My son will be gone for 10 days on a school trip to Ireland, Wales, and England. I'll be curious if he will miss home or not! Stay warm.

Fab card Kathie! I love all the sparkle you added. You can't beat a nice bubblebath. I hope you have a lovely weekend with your family, my daughters off on her 1st school trip later this month for 4 days. She's very excited, I'm dreading it she never stays away from home.
