Music Saves My Soul Saturday #1

Morning, I hope you are all having a wonderful start to the weekend. I have decided to bring you something a little different today. I don't know how many of you remember that I used to post a song on my blog every Saturday morning many moons ago. Well, yesterday a very lovely blogging buddy reminded me of this and so I have decided to start a new little thing for fun.

I absolutely love music and cannot imagine life without it. I love all types of music and so each week I will post a song that I have in my head or one that I just feel like sharing. I would love it too if you could do the same on your blogs .... we can all spread a little fun and happiness to each other. I have to share the one and only Lady GaGa for my first post cos I love her sooooooooooooo much!!!!!

To play along please post the picture of 'Music Saves My Soul' to your sidebar and link it to my blog to help spread the word. If you could then share your video on your blog and link it to the blue frog below that would be fabulous. I will send a little candy to my favourite song each week. Fingers crossed you play along with me :o)

Lili of the Valley - A Sketch

Morning .... is it only Thursday???? This week sure is dragging. Never mind, we have a beautiful sketch for you all to follow this week on Lili of the Valley and I really enjoyed following it. I decided to make an easel card even though they are a total nightmare to photograph ... tips anyone????

I actually managed to cut into my new papers on the very same day I bought them - how distressing. Love these pretty colours though. It is also the first time I have used this gorgeous stamp 'Christmas Candle' by Lili of the Valley - what a perfect image for any little girl at Christmas. Lots of gorgeous blooms too from Wild Orchid Crafts and Crafty Feeling.

Challenges

Crafts and Me - Easel Cards
Totally Gorjuss - Flowers
Totally Papercrafts - Let's go Dotty

I have pinched the brilliant idea of adding a little tag for a place to add a personal message from the mega talented Rach - such a lovely lady with more talent than is fair!

Off to work now but have a wonderful day and I hope you get to join us all for some sketch fun this week
