Life is better .....

I had a birthday card to make for a lad who loves surfing.

Thankfully I had already bought this cool stamp from

Bugaboo and it work perfectly with my background papers.

The background gingham is from Nitwits, the planks

are from my stash and the sea is a digi download from Daisie.com.

I have coloured him in with promarkers.

Sunday again, where did that week go?? It's been  busy one catching up on housework and crafting (do we ever really catch up?) Car had to go into garage, it had started making a loud knocking noise, seriously thought there was someone locked in the boot lol. But it turned out to be the back brakes! So bill was not as bad as we were expecting!! I have another pile of housework and ironing to catch up on, a bit of tidying around the garden and then some crafting. Have a great day and hope its more exciting than mine!!

Game on!

I am getting worse at this blogging business! Finally getting to post a card.

 It was 18 degrees here today but there was a wind blowing that would cut you in two!! So much for summer! I am longing for nice long sunny days but it ain't going to happen now me thinks. The leaves are beginning to gather in the back garden! My grandsons are away for a week to the caravan so will miss their visits this week but maybe it will motivate me to do some much needed clearing out!

Have a good week whatever you are up to.

One for the Dads

Won't be long until Father's Day so I have made a start on some card designs.

This is one for a gardener.

I'm having a very busy week. Lots of little trips about. Had doctor on Monday, dentist on tuesday, hairdressers today, Mother in laws hairdressers tomorrow and had grandkids on Monday and Tuesday. But still managed to get some crafting done lol.

We are having very cold weather like a lot of you but fingers crossed it has to break today/tomorrow, if you can believe the weather men! Keep wanting to sort my winter clothes away but no mission at the minute. Enjoy the rest of the week and thanks for dropping by.
