Don't you just hate the thought...

of having to make mens cards!I know I do, but needs must and a few weeks ago I had to prepare a load of samples for a class I was teaching. If they're not into golf, football or fishing the you really have to think hard. Here's a few ideas I came up with including one for the fisherman.

 My trusty Crafty Individuals ship stamp along with an antinque map ,sorry don't know the manufacturer.

Love these clocks, the stamp is a Craft Stamper freebie and the embossing folder is one of Sir Tims. I've dragged Distress ink (Weathered wood) to colour the background . The embellishments are eyelets ....do you remember those? A bit out of fashion now but I've got tons of them.

  This one's a cutie which I don't usually do but this LOTV stamp is gorgeous. I've coloured the image with my Distress Inks.
Now after all that thinking I need.........................chocolate!

A Birthday card but not as we know it

For my friend Gill's birthday last weekend I thought I would make her a little plaque rather than a card. She loves cats so I used that freebie from The Craft Stamper. I wanted to say hello as rather than Happy Birthday as she lives about 50 miles away and I don't see her as much as I'd like.
So if you've dropped by Gill I hope you had a lovely day and we must get together soon.
