Cupcake Craft Challenge #31 Brown + One....and Some Exciting News!!!!

Well, I'm so excited I could crush-a-grape or even rip-a-tissue lol! I applied to become a member of the Cupcake Craft Design Team and I've been accepted......YAY! My term starts on 6th April and will run for 6-7 months and Lauren has picked some uber talented ladies as part of the team, in fact she had such a hard time deciding she ended up picking 15 of us!!!! I am so looking forward to working with Lauren and the girls, so don't forget to come and see me both here and on the challenge blog on the 6th :) This also brings me nicely onto today's card which just happens to be for this weeks Cupcake Craft Challenge which is to use the colour Brown on your card plus one other colour which could be either Pink, Blue or Green. I've gone for green and have chosen a delightful little image called 'Alfie' by Sally-Ann at Grab-A-Doodle-Do, I am so taken with her digi stamps at the moment I can't seem to stop using them lol! Alfie has been coloured in with PM's and mounted onto some SU card. I've used Basic Grey papers and the sentiment is an Elzybells stamp. Brads & buttons are from my stash, hope you likey and thanks for looking :)
