New Goodies

I was lucky enough to win some candy from All That Scraps a few weeks ago, and chose this cuuuuute Kitty set from Paper Smooches and this fab fence die from CC Designs.

I was following the colour theme from the 10 minute craft dash for this one ... the trick of this challenge is to have a definite idea of your layout (mine usually changes as I go along, so this is a toughie for me) and have all your dies and stamps ready to use.  (Though I must confess that I have a stash of these clouds pre-cut)
Total time: 9 mins 34 seconds.
I decided later that it needed 'something' so added a couple of pink butterflies up in the top right corner, but I took my pic before I added them as that would have put me outside the 10 minute deadline.
