HAPPY B'DAY!

Good Evening!
I've had a little time to myself today! Freya went to an out of school activity learning to ride her bike!
Okay! I know it was a struggle getting the bike into the car, especially with the stabilizers on, but, well worth the break! A little time to myself although I did clock watch lol...Should be back to my 'normal' tomorrow, as she is going home.

I coloured this little cutie in a while ago and have just got round to making it up! It lives at
From the Heart and is called Birthday Chicks you also get three sentiments too!  I've used one of them.. Coloured with Copics..There's Stickles on the Cake/Parcel/Bow.. Papers/Buttons from stash...A Woodware punch for the Balloons/Corners...
 This is the sketch....

Just a fun card today! I LOve this image from KennyK's Dowloads it's called Running Baseball
I double cut him out with the Cameo. Folded at the top, he goes in a 6 x 6 envelope nicely.....Coloured with Copics and I've dabbed him all over with Blender/Cloth to give him the 'worn' look. He really looks to be running with the Sun and Blinds at the back of him!

TEDDY BEA

Good Morning!


ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY!        ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY!


That's how many days are left until Christmas! Now if you are think about posting your cards at the beginning of December?  Yikes! time's going on.....

I spotted a Teddy Boo on a Challenge and decided I must use some of mine again..The poor little critters have been filed away for soooo long!  When a digi hasn't been used for a while, you tend to forgot how much you loved them, I have a folder of these little bears and I wondered who to pick!  So out came  TEDDYBEA-011  isn't she a sweetie...
 I was really out of my comfort zone too......Firstly because it's a CAS card, and secondly because one of my Challenges has to use Sequins!  I coloured her with Copics..... LOts of glitter on her wings and hat...A marker pen were the sequins had to be placed.. Computer sentiment..... Papers from stash..
The only good thing was: The sequins!     I've a full card of different colours lurking in a drawer a kind DIL's father bought them for me for Christmas.    I just knew that they would come in handy..
