She's outta here...

Not Roadster Nikki but Jeanie aka The Spotted Chick. When I first emailed Jeanie (after popping my brave pill!) asking her to be a Guest Designer for LCI I was so happy when she agreed...I didn't even have to twist her arm or pay her {only with rubber} or nothink lol. Then Jeanie dropped da bomb...she'd only be able to be a GD until the end of August because she was shutting up shop for two months (TWO MONTHS!!) as she and her husband were doing some renovations to their house. Included in those reno's was a brand spankin' sparkly new craft room so I could forgive her her absence because I think I would do the same thing for a brand spankin' sparkly new craft room lol. Although she'll only be off the radar for a couple of months she will be greatly missed for her amazing work and her fabulous sense of humour. In the short time I have 'known' Jeanie I feel like I've made a new friend and she has been very generous with her time and help with my photography (it is slightly better isn't it?).
I've known for a couple of weeks now that Jeanie's final card on her blog until she starts back in November is going to be one using an LCI image and I can't tell you how honoured and excited I am about that and I don't think she could have picked a more appropriate image than Roadster Nikki....

Did I hear a gasp or three? I know I made a noise when I first saw it the other day...though it was probably more likened to a squeal lol. How fabulous is this card?!!! I love everything about it...from the fab pp to the colouring of NIKK1...and what about that bow!!!! This isn't the end though because once Jeanie has her brand spankin' sparkly new craft room she'll be back in her Guest Designer roll!

Thank you Jeanie for yet another beauty :-D

That's it for today. I'm off to Troon with Nicole and the dogs for a walk along the beach. Be sure to leave some Ladybug Love and let me know what you think of Roadster Nikki :-D

Have a great day!

Catch ya later x

Omgosh, this is just gorgeous. I love the paper and of course her coloring is as beautiful as always. I can't believe there will be no Jeanie eye-candy for two whole months (gasp). And yes, it's so exciting that her last card was using a LCI stamp! I {heart} this card.
