Sorry for shouting and hurting your ears but i have something you.......I'm so excited lol........ok I'm going to tell before i explode with excitement.........I'm 1 of 12 to get through to round 2 of the Sugar Nellie competition....woohoo *jumping with excitement* !!!!

I know haven't won it but its still a big achievement for me just to get to round 2, you see I'm always doubting myself and i do have a fabbie family and group of friends (including docraft buddies & Blogging buddies) 

who are always telling me my cards are beautiful etc but i still do doubt myself.

Even if i don't get any further in this competition, id be happy of where I've got to, as the competition has been dwindled down to 12 out of all those gorgeous entries, that's amazing feeling,

i aren't going to lie i would love to win the competition and it would be a dream come true to be part of the Simply Sassy DT so i will keep my fingers crossed and see what happens when it goes to Round 3 ~ Voting by the followers :o)

Anyhoo onto whats expected from me in the next round of the competition ~
