Hi there every one .  Hope you and yours are in the pink .

Welcome to my room , where I am trying to figure out how to fix an error I made earlier this week .
I misread the date for this new challenge from Kraftyhands  and did my DT post

http://shirley-anne-stampingforjoy.blogspot.com.au/2013/04/april-showers-shades-of-blue.html
on Wednesday 3rd.
I was let off the hook ,so to speak and forgiven . The boss lady , Linda is just one of the best .

This was the card I had made

 

This one will be on the challenge blog , but I could not resist making another  which I have added below .
