My Time to Craft and NEC goodies

At My Time to Craft this week, the challenge is entitled Mum's the Word and with the approach of Mother's Day in the UK, a very appropriate theme.
I have used all SU products apart from the little 'With love' sentiment, which I believe is from Personal Impressions.
The background stamp plus the flowers and the butterfly are from The 'Bliss' Sale a Bration set and the letters are stamped with the Big Deal alphabet.
The colours are Crumb Cake and Baja Breeze, all liberally twinkled with Glamour Dust.
These are my goodies from the NEC.
I had a lovely day, travelling up with Anne (Stargroves) and meeting up with Eileen (Ikki). It was lovely to be with friends and see such lovely crafty things at the same time!
Now to play with all this stuff!

    Gorgeous card - I do love this SAB set from SU. Great layout and colours (one of my fave combinations).

    How did you glue on the glitter? Did you use heat-and-stick or just some glue and glitter on top?

    thanks,
    Malyn

    Chrissie that is another beautiful card and what a great stash of goodies.
    I was going to ask if you were going to Shepton Mallet next week but by the look of it you might have spent up.

    Gorgeous card - I LOVE that stamp set - I must get my hands on one. The colours are a stunning combo.

    Nice haul from the NEC - I had to resist the urge to go this time as I've just ordered rather a lot of stamps from the US....
