Take a look at what I came up with..<br /><br />I did some very fiddly paper piecing here but I think it was worth it because it brings it all together.<img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 359px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5577665024292090642" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdWPR9OHkg8zNbZhTXHlc1_lspOJp2wqX4dv9Xk19CuH0kFIcCJNBrmSUgo8tWkr192HZN6CZDPPLIuooe5o954TR3A61WOrExWeTuQqIMi2uYw4dRelIYvTnrFdbW8t_1iaqzILsofh_5/s400/basket.jpg" /><br /><br />Slightly fuzzy side view next:/<br /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 364px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5577665143108981266" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9urvDz53ojhyLNgo6HRv0V0mDOMJwhgneqCaLYKzbZzg_tq18UXIRwFjwtYdyyLx9yZeNkoq_28Fi1qKzCQ7yzRKksSeg4ZXgflFh00wosB2RPGhZ8AgMJCH891jneAteYE3Q-Oxi2g5x/s400/basket+side.jpg" /> Here's another...<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfpa0t3ARaGOkAni7aFiy6-JydVgE9Z7BhU2Cqgle1OiNv7t9rCJJ8iI0V9H0DGU8BmEgWHJmCLkM3zFYFpqWXiPcmrM4QaZ65JOhA1v9tL2m5FOSa1sAQfj8YUl3MAHJqdJofZ-Xn3Zzj/s1600/dreamer.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 380px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5577665814743858082" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfpa0t3ARaGOkAni7aFiy6-JydVgE9Z7BhU2Cqgle1OiNv7t9rCJJ8iI0V9H0DGU8BmEgWHJmCLkM3zFYFpqWXiPcmrM4QaZ65JOhA1v9tL2m5FOSa1sAQfj8YUl3MAHJqdJofZ-Xn3Zzj/s400/dreamer.jpg" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhcH1MVdGOYoozRVrssU5X_FW_SI1AnxJkqlzobvDQW4nbyci2PKsZKjR-atl7nkiN6rCoizQ05sInyhMhAo56gU1VS5yLhDBgs4R3tRs4-nyonGXhpuzuVvKR2I5zq9CPG0L08KeR0ZEnW/s1600/dream.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 310px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5577665809690438066" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhcH1MVdGOYoozRVrssU5X_FW_SI1AnxJkqlzobvDQW4nbyci2PKsZKjR-atl7nkiN6rCoizQ05sInyhMhAo56gU1VS5yLhDBgs4R3tRs4-nyonGXhpuzuVvKR2I5zq9CPG0L08KeR0ZEnW/s400/dream.jpg" /></a> Do you like them?

I bet all my blog fiends have forgotten this Blog...can you believe I haven't posted since September? Well I have moved house in that time so I guess that's a bit of a reason :)<br />Well I'm back now and soon you'll be sick of me.<br />Here's a card I made for Dottie'S World ....<br />I don't have a Valentine's card to show you because I haven't made one (shock horror) my partner and I agreed not to DO Valentines day....I'm just praying he isn't planning on surprising me (eek).<br /><br />Anyway what I have been making is a thank you card for a very special little girl, I hope she likes it.<br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipX_Ngvz52rvlgsIV4o4ZD5o00kOAlqKliGX0XuMOcOWZaRPCtbMshY0rQnPl8lenJIFYHztB-LmtCLDG4mQ683y6cr_9UGh7q5cysdAk5hIUJjpu31ThnY2ExYgS5IPjWmtJq3be36stt/s1600/samirah.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 214px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5573193249037940930" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipX_Ngvz52rvlgsIV4o4ZD5o00kOAlqKliGX0XuMOcOWZaRPCtbMshY0rQnPl8lenJIFYHztB-LmtCLDG4mQ683y6cr_9UGh7q5cysdAk5hIUJjpu31ThnY2ExYgS5IPjWmtJq3be36stt/s400/samirah.jpg" /></a> Samirah loves the Pixie Chicks so I made her a nice tall easel card with one.

WOO HOO! It was bloody amazing and I didnt want to come home. All I did most of the time was relax in the sun....after the stress of my marriage break up I really needed it I can tell you! However....I did do a bit of partying .....<img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5515757548415413314" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjedFgJd_WbRg29JLqxhhgogv5mJCq-GlM5n49W2m38oVwj6vyBfsHWWzuVj2Ce2goOs3OE6kcvRpdgTq90B-KzMCZQ-Jci2hu_3y0jNvY4VAmLqe7VKlml4fevZ4FYuZpZ52ZNb8e1smFp/s400/SNV82870.JPG" /><br /><br /><p>I was behind the bar there helping them to mix the cocktails :)</p><p>Anyway.....on to the Dottie's World Challenge, our gorgeous Karen has set us a beauty this week, she wants us to get started on our Christmas cards.........yes I did say CHRISTMAS!

How fun is that! Using your fave image!<br /><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"><em><span style="color:#3366ff;">This week I want you to take your favourite Charmed One- a new or old and just make a card or project with it.

I drew most of the Charmed digital images and so each and every one holds a special place in my heart - I just can't pick a favourite. So, I decided to choose one of the images I have used the most which must make it somewhere at the top of the list.

Crafting for a man! Ok so it's nobodies favourite but these things HAVE to be done so this week at Dottie's World Adele is getting us into action on those masculine projects.</div><br /><div>As it happens this challenge came just at the right time for me. I recently moved house and I've been very busy making it livable. I'm proud to say that I've done most things by myself but sometimes men really do come in handy. My dear dear friend has done so much for me around the house, he is my hero and he knows it! He keeps asking when he is going to get his certificate so I thought it was time to make one......no...he deserves two!</div><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifeVtsSPW13W0HhAl5ApN0Fi41h-w-Mu-CQJ1_Ln1nX1YcrnWldQ0qkWdXy5H32IJLYyXOxwsXGxNj-7bFTkVtPPYUBEwsj2kiyiZwdVR5masGS2L-Zx5dUO6gdJCKwL_U4YCbucPcCtKq/s1600/certificate+2.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 306px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5500125733417017170" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifeVtsSPW13W0HhAl5ApN0Fi41h-w-Mu-CQJ1_Ln1nX1YcrnWldQ0qkWdXy5H32IJLYyXOxwsXGxNj-7bFTkVtPPYUBEwsj2kiyiZwdVR5masGS2L-Zx5dUO6gdJCKwL_U4YCbucPcCtKq/s400/certificate+2.jpg" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrPPfAZAKCBeCcPqq22tnnwg1ZIbJVFmtAYtSI97XifXxEs04hCOafHNYM_DG5LMZZoSg2UkGSCFCV6fM2EtmfyUYCX6WVXRwbClUl6b5_d97wES7l5MqZHsfvta3QhX6Im-d_54ISoTAu/s1600/certificate+1.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 301px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5500125725443841426" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrPPfAZAKCBeCcPqq22tnnwg1ZIbJVFmtAYtSI97XifXxEs04hCOafHNYM_DG5LMZZoSg2UkGSCFCV6fM2EtmfyUYCX6WVXRwbClUl6b5_d97wES7l5MqZHsfvta3QhX6Im-d_54ISoTAu/s400/certificate+1.jpg" /></a><br /><p>The colouring could be better but these certificates are actually quite mini so colouring wasn't an easy task with my copics.

OK so that doesn't sound very challenging.......I would like you to make your summer item DIFFERENT to what you would normally make. Maybe you always make tent fold cards so try a side fold card or something completely different! Maybe you always make big cards so make a teenie weenie one, do you get my drift?<br />Most importantly, have fun! </strong></em><br /><strong><em></em></strong><span style="font-size:130%;"><strong>Louise xx </strong></span><br /><span style="font-size:130%;">Ok, so this is my challenge yes?
