Its a Boy!

Hi and Good Morning! :)

Today sees the start of our new challenge over at Sweet Stampin, where this week our theme is 'Its a Man Thing'.  We are sponsored by Cuddly Buddly, and also our monthly sponsor - The Ribbon Girl.  Awesome prizes, so well worth playing along.

 

I dont make a lot of male cards, but this week was rather special - we had a long-awaited new arrival in our family (all the way over in Oz), and thanks to the wonders of modern technology (Facebook - lol) I was able to see baby pics within minutes of his birth and I was so proud !  Welcome to the world little Tom ! :)

 

I layered MME papers onto Kraft cardstock and coloured in this sweet Mo Manning image with PM's.  The mesh die and sentiment are Cheery Lynn, and the other dies are a mix of Memory Box, Marianne and spellbinders. The colours look a little less grubby IRL, but it was such a dark day when I took the photo, I just couldnt seem to get it in a decent light.

 

Now I want to apologise for being a bit of a bad blogger in returning my visits again lately :(  We still have the same problems with our internet, and its so slow its almost like pulling teeth.  It can take me an hour to get round just a handful of blogs, but I do try to catch up with everyone at least once a week.  Certain times of the month (and certain times of the day) we get throttled and its a real struggle trying to make our allowance last till the end of the month.   

 

I really do appreciate every visit and every comment :)

 

Hoping you have a smashing weekend!
