I didn't expect I'd win the Floral Fantasies fab Big Shot prize....and didn't...well done to Emma, who did :-)
I didn't expect my freezer to conk out on Saturday night either...and it did :-(
Ooooo, just think of all the goodies I could have bought with the money I've had to dish out for a new one.
The good news is.....
Yippee...I have found a new crafty buddy, Teresa. I am hoping we can arrange some crafty afternoons together.
She is a friend of my daughter Jo's in-laws. I've met her a few times when she
pops in with her two little doggies and it happened that I'd taken the Kingfisher card for Jo to see and Teresa was quite impressed with the easel style, and found that she is a cardmaker too.
Now, how about this for a compliment.....even though she makes cards herself, she asked me to make her a card for her grandson's 18th.
He is a fan of Northampton Saints RFC so I've made this with the Saints badge as the BP.
The teams colours are green, gold and black so no worries about colour choice, but it was quite a fiddle to get the badge to fit the BP size.
The rugby ball is shaped and fixed with silicone to give it shape.
I followed the sketch at Cards for Men and missed the deadline....but the current challenge is 'Green'.... how fortunate is that
The theme at Charisma Cardz is Male so a fit here again too.
Thank you for stopping by and for all the lovely recent comments....I really appreciate them all. I hope to see you again soon :-)
