....I'm really glad they brought back the points for cards, as I do very little scrapping now and it's nice to be able to contribute a bit more to my team's total each month
Skybluepink is no bad thing
I'm trying to get a better balance this year with scrapping and card making, I seemed to end up chasing myself with various projects last year. I have a better system with my spread sheet to help me this year....I hope! And I think skybluepink should be the next colour prompt

I have a slight chance of achieving that this month as I'm on annual leave next week and have a few that I need to get done by the beginning of March, not much hope each month afterwards though!
Here is my card for this week. My original idea didn't work so I had a crafty tantrum before I made this. Still not entirely sure if I like it but never mind
I've tried to leave messages where I can, so many gorgeous cards.
Ang, that card of yours is just beautiful and I've lifted the Larkspur idea for a birthday card I need to make. Have to say it's not a patch on yours, it's so delicate, but it will have to do and if I get a chance I will take a photo and post it.
Although I'm not taking part I love checking in to see how you are all doing AND you're doing GREAT!
Lovely cards Sarah You're not actually allowed to put a link to your blog on UKS, if you use it to sell SU products. Neither are you supposed to have anything in your signature or profile to say that you are a demonstrator. Unless of course you are a sponsor, in which case I'll just shut up now
Thanks for your kind comment on my blog Susie
Now that the power has settled down here and the lights have stopped flicking on and off I'm going to attempt some commenting myself
Here is my take on this weeks prompts Mint Green/Aqua Blue/Turquoise
Card 1: Mint green pearlised cardstock, Rob Addams trellis die, Dovecraft backing paper in shades of green/aqua, topper from LOTV. Cream pearlised paper flowers with turquoise jewels at the centre, and skelton leaves in aqua and green.
Card 2: Mint green cardstock, foiled card from Hunkydory, aqua mirri, topper from LOTV. Green ribbon, Turquoise fern die from Rob Addams, text die from Marianne.
I do like that trellis die - might have to keep a look out at the Make it Show for that one
I am still trailing two weeks behind, but here is my week 5 - pale, glitter, love. As you can see, I have dipped out on the glitter but have subbed with pearly bling! I have done two everyday cards instead of a Christmas one. Full details on the blog as usual
Have visited a few blogs where they are linked and left a few comments! Lots of lovely cards to look at

Well it's very nice! Am no stranger to the crafty tantrum myself, have half finished bits and pieces all over the desk

Just checked and it did work but no thumbnail for some reason.
Anyway, thanks to Ang for the idea of using Larkspur and I'm hoping this fits in with Week 4's prompt.
Susie - have left a comment in your gallery but just wanted to say what a lovely card this is!

All very pretty! Lovely colours and I like that fern die you have used too.

Two great cards there Wendy - loving the postage stamp effect!
That is a really lovely card - so fresh and bright.
Thanks SilverTiger, well it certainly is bright. Your cards are lovely with really cute images, love that swirly background paper, it's so pretty.
Wendy, I would never have thought to put cogs with pearls but it all goes together beautifully. Love that die it is so striking especially with your choice of colours - just fab!
Left a comment for your gorgeous owl card Trish and in answer to your question the Larkspur is just a downloaded image I searched for after seeing Ang's beautiful card.
