Where did the week go???

.
End of school holidays already!

My two eldest boys go back to school on Tuesday and they have had no fun at all this last couple of weeks with a virus then a cold.
My youngest is still sick. He's up with me now (almost midnight!) with a high temp(you could of fried an egg on his tummy about an hour ago but it's better now). But he's happy he's watching a Pooh Bear Movie.
I can't believe it's been almost a week since I posted anything.
Well, I managed to make a card tonight.
Thought I better make a start on some Mother's Day cards for JeMbellish and my Mum of course.


My Mum actually sent me an example of a card like this and I had never seen one before. Thought I would give it a go for the Crafty Card Makers Challenge this week - A Challenging Challenge.

The top flap with the sentiment opens out to the right and the other panel opens out to the left. I have no idea what this style of card is called.


I have also submitted this card in to the following challenges as well


Thanks for stopping by today.
