Turtle Card Challenge & weekend update

Each Sunday brings a challenge at Turtle Soup. This week's was brought to us by our fabulous Guest Design Team member Rhonda. The task was to create a card using flowers, ribbon and the colour purple. It just so happened that I needed a card for my friend Kristy's wedding this weekend (more on that later) so here it is....

And now for more on Kristy's wedding festivities...

On Thursday all the ladies gathered for the Mendhi. A henna artist was brought in to decorate us. She is incredibly crazy talented. Not only was the henna absolutely beautiful - she was SO fast!!

Anyway, here are a couple of pictures from that night...
