Very Patriotic....lol

Good Afternoon everyone, I don't know what happened to the morning but it vanished before I had time to blink.I was going to do that dreaded ironing, but here I am with very little done at all. I think its now time for a walk, must keep the exercise up or the diet will be totally doomed. The eating plan is struggling so its only the exercise thats propping it up....lol Our Diet is so good on the whole but then I have a choccy biscuit with milky coffee ..(But Skimmed milk) but I think maybe the choccy bit isn't working too good :((
Well onto my card today, it for the Totally Tilda Red,White and Blue Challenge, As I said very patriotic, What fab colours to work with though. I struggled to find any papers especially red ones, but I was determined to enter the challenge so decided it had to be textured cardstock instead. The Ribbon I bought ages ago and wasn't sure what I would ever use it on but it was perfect for this. I actually enjoyed making this card although I don't think its as good as i had hoped it would be, but hey! so what, its having fun that matters. I think it when you do things out of your comfort zone that it makes it a Challenge in the true sense. Anyway here it is... and sorry just noticed my little charm decided to try and sail away when I took my photo... must be Royalty on board, dodging the papparazzi.....lol
Will be back later to blog hop xx Hugs Mau xx
