What a couple of weeks i had!!!!

I have had a couple of weeks that I would like to put behind me, as it sapped my soul and drained all motivation.  I had the sad passing of my Uncle and was very sick with the flu.  As I slowly recover from both I am returning to card making.  I am still needing a little motivation, and I know that will return when my new TGF stamps arrive.... For inspiration and something to CASE I went to the lady that has inspired me greatly as she is so talented... Faith Hofrichter  and chose one of her cards see here.  
I  have entered this card below, into the stamping for the weekend colour challenge week 14.  For this challenge we had to use Teal, orange and pink. 
 Colours used are Taken with Teal, pixie pink, Pretty in pink, Pumpkin Pie and used Copics to colour in the cow.  The stamps are from TGF rock the farm and the background flower is from Stampin UP.
The ribbon is actually bright orange, but it didn't scan very well.

Thank you for looking
Keep Safe

  4. Sorry to hear the sad news of your uncle and with your feeling so poorly too, I guess it's time like these when crafting comes into it's own and you can just switch off from reality and create a lil something to cheer yourself up. This card is certain to cheer someone up, the image is so sweet, you've done a super job with this weeks colour challenge, love the actual shape of your card too. Thank you for playing along this week, good luck and I hope you will soon feel better, take care xx vicki xx
