Hey!
Ooooh a Wednesday - not too used to posting on a Wednesday: it's usually the day I dash in from work, have a quick drink, throw my footie gear on and head back outta the door! I have a bit more time on my hands today though - school is out for summer (yay!) and the footie season is over for a few weeks (not so happy about that one as it means more trips to the gym!)
So what am I sharing with you today? Well a card I'm hoping to squeeze in to the current Embellish Challenge:
Yeah! Check me out! Cutting into the Dotty DP that I've hoarded for years *grin*
I'm trying to get a head-start on all the guy cards I've gotta whip out this month. We have so many guys in the family celebrating their special days in August - good job they picked this month as I have time to figure out where on Earth to start with their cards; whenever I sit to make a guy card I have to have the idea already in my head or else I'll sit there stumped for hours!
The sketch was totally inspired by the current Viva La Verve sketch
I love how versatile this sketch it - I can see me using it for a number of different occasions by simply replacing the heart with something else and mixing up the colours.
Well as much as I love hanging around here I'm a busy gal: I've gotta get packing for our holiday! We're going for a traditional British holiday by the sea-side next week and I can't wait to have a li'l paddle and an ice cream :) Watch out Abersoch - here we come! So no doubt I'll be MIA next week (hope to get a few scheduled posts organised but don't hold me to it!) but if you see this image next to your post in Google Reader:
...it's more than likely to be me :)
Hope you can hang around for our fabulously fun CASE study blog hop tomorrow!
Catch ya later!
