Boys Will Be Boys

Why is it that boys like making a mess and all things messy???? While my son was on holiday we sorted his room out and made it all nice and clean & tidy, and it now looks like a bombs hit it!! Also my cousin let her little boy have some jelly yesterday, had to nip out of the room to answer the door and came back to a living room decorated in jelly!! AND her living room is white & black with  white carpet and walls. the last time little Aston tried to redecorate he lovingly rubbed a pot of sudocream into the black leather sofa.
Boys, ain't they just adorable!!!

Anyway onto my card, and i cant say this little lad is yukky, as i love frogs too

The image is a Pink Gm stamp, and coloured with pro markers. I used 2 of the backing papers from the PaperMania For Him Colossol Paper Pack, a little pice of dark orange ribbon and a big button and twine from my stash. The greeting is peel-off copper coloured letters.

B&W Congrats

Hers another CAS card I've made, it all the fault of those 2 lovely ladies on the Less Is More blog. They keep on coming up with fantastic challenges that i just have to keep on having a go at, so thank you Lady LIM & Diva LIM aka Chrissie and Mandi, for making me become a LIMette :D

I used a square white card, stamped the sentiment onto white card and backed this with black linen effect paper, the same for the image which is from a little 99p Dovecraft stamp set, and added clear glitter for the fizzy stuff and bubbles.

Something Other Than A Card

I made this cute bookmark for my daughter, she made me a cross stitch one for Christmas, and she loves the Meljens designs almost as much as i do, so i gave this one to her.

The whole thing is coloured with pro markers, with a little bit of glitter glue added for sparkle and the sentiment was done with my trusty £shop alphabet stamps.

Cute hey :D

RAAWWWW Its a Dinosaur!!!!!!!

But he doesn't exactly look scary does he

He is a Dustin Pike digi coloured with pro markers and gold & silver gel pens. The backing paper is some from my stash ans i used thick foam pads to mount the dino and pressies digi. I didn't think this needed a sentiment as its printed all over the backing paper, but i wanted to use something down the side, so found the fun parcel, hat and candle buttons in my stash.
A really jolly card i think.
