Crafty Sentiments 'Animals' Challenge

Good morning all, I sure hope this lovely weather is here to stay and we will not be back tracking to any more snow.

Firstly I would just like to wish my husband Happy Anniversary as we celebrate our 16th wedding anniversary today on St Patrick's Day and yes I did where green when we got married although neither of us is Irish!! My hubby booked our wedding as a Valentine's present and tried to book it for my birthday which is on the 19th but this was the nearest date he could get and had not noticed what day it was. We had just under 5 weeks to arrange everything with 4 young children and 1 of them a baby of 3 months to sort out as well but we did it and I wouldn't of wanted it any other way NOW lol. 

Happy St Patrick's Day also to all my Irish visitor's.

This week our challenge at Crafty Sentiments Designs is 'Animals', now I know a lot of my fellow team ladies have used the NEW really cute Baby Bears from the Mini Kit that have been released TODAY and which I gave you a sneaky peek at last week, however I decided to use something different to show that if you have collected the freebies as time has gone by you will have the perfect 'Animal' image to use this week. Plus I know there are a lot of people finding money a little tight at the moment and cannot afford new purchased but this way you can still play along for the chance to win. 


Supplies:-
6" Square Card Blank - Craft Superstore
Cardstock - Paper Mill Direct
Designer Papers - Papermania 'Pampered Pets'
Medium - Promarkers
Lace - Craftmania

Promarkers Used:-
Birdhouse - Tan, Cinnamon & Cocoa
Flowers & Bird Breast - Rose Pink 
Leaves - Lime Green
Bumblebee - Soft Lime & Black
Worm & Bird Feathers - Tan & Cinnamon

Here is the NEW Release available TODAY.

For my card I used the 'sketch' from Passion For Promarkers so would like to enter my card into their challenge.

Don't forget to pop over to the Crafty Sentiments Challenge Blog and see all the new designs out, you never know you may just not be able to resist and they are really reasonably priced, not that I am encouraging you lol.
