Alisa with roses (Resistance is futile)

Good morning all.

Another glorious start to the day but they say it's not going to last - but I bet we have all been loving this glorious weather.
Tomorrow Phoebe's school is holding a little street party in celebration of the Queen's jubilee - I sure hope it stays dry and a little warm. So much happening here at the moment - the Jubilee, the Olympic touch travelling around Britain and EURO 2012 will start in 10 days time. The boys are looking forward to that, I won't as Denmark is in a really touch group and not likely to progress (Gremany, Holland and Portugal, now that's scary). Later on in the summer the Olympic games and my trip home to see my family. It's going to be a memorable summer :).

I have a question?! Do anyone else try and stick to a certain budget only to have it broken by something you really must have!? Well, I did reach my budget limit and wasn't going to spend any more money for a while and along come Mo Manning with a new adorable image. I tried to resist - I honestly did but my resolve didn't last long.

So my card for today ....



..... features the latest Mo Manning image. Alisa with roses was just too adorable to pass up. Isn't she gorgeous ..... now maybe you understand why I found it so hard to resist her lol. Or maybe I am just to easy to pursuade hehe. She didn't need a lot of details so I kept the card simple.

Materials Used: Alisa with roses from Mo Manning - cardstock - Jillibean Soup dp - crinkled ribbon - sentiment from Unity Stamps

Challenges
