This past weekend, hubby and I went to Kona. While shopping at one of the stores (maybe I better not mention which one but will say it wasn't a dept. store or supermarket), I saw the cutest thing. While waiting for hubby in one of the aisles, a man came around the corner looking downward behind him calling, "Come on, come, come." Then this little "animal" came happily trotting along following his master. I froze for a moment and my eyes popped. I was thinking, 'Whoa, what is that????? It's not dog, humm, could it be a funny looking dog, nah, that's no dog." I asked, "Oh, is that a lamb?" He replied with a smile, "Yes." OMG, it was only about a foot tall, all black, and just the cutest little thing. I wish I took a picture. I wonder if it's name was "Baa-baa." Get it? Hee-hee.
OK, on to my card. Now that we're in the midst of Spring, I created this card and splashed on a few flowers.

Lovely card Karen, brilliant colours and design.
pity you didn't take a photo of the lamb. I acheived one of my life's ambitions the other week when I got to cuddle a lamb at a friend's croft, a little black one as well, he was a bit poorly and needed bottle fed, he's on my blog. Kona sounds an interesting place, conjures up all sorts of images.
Have a great day, Kate x

Haha! A lamb? Never saw anyone with a pet lamb before. Your Mimi card is so sweet! Love all your accents on the card.
How funny... I never saw anyone with a pet lamb except for one of Kylie's cartoon characters. I love your card. It's so pretty with the flowers, pink vine, and pearls. Mimi of course looks super cute as usual. Have a wonderful Friday and a nice weekend!
Hi Karen what a wonderful thing to see I am afraid I would have asked if I could have given the Lamb a cuddle I just cannot resist giving a bit of love to any animal, lol, Karen I love, love this little beauty, that is one cute image love the sparkle in her hair, the die cut display looks fantastic so do the papers and colours a truly joyful card.
