Man Card!

Good Morning , it is lovely and sunny outside at the moment so the washing is blowing in the breeze i shall be making the most of it and will be washing all the bedding!!
Apologies for all the writing at the top of my post as i'm not sure what i have done wrong but it didn't want to go under the photo. Any helpful advice on this would be greatly appreciated, i am sure it is something silly i have missed.
Any how i have made a mans card for this weeks create and take at work and have used the Portobello Road stamps postage/passport and vintage, i have to admit i like all the stamps but when it came to producing a card i did struggle but am rather pleased with how it turned out. I also used a tim holtz brick wall embossing folder.

Simple Pimple!

Morn!
As the title suggests a very "Simple Pimple Card" today.
This card came about purely by me wanting to stamp the image to see how it came out and then i just added some doodling and "Voila" i quite liked it as it was.
It was a recent purchase off ebay and i thought it would be a nice quick and easy man card - it turned out to be super quick!! Yahoo!!
I also stamped a little moo cow inside but silly me forgot to take a pic of him/her but it was very cute a little moo with hearts on body.
Just a quickie from me today, have a lovely day!!
challenges
less is more - one layer card
4 crafty chicks - boys dig it
crafty ribbons - things with wings
paper play - animal antics
crafters companion - four legged friends

Innocent and sweet!

Good Morning!
I think the title of my post just about sums me up ! lol (yeah right! i hear you say!)
Well actually i think it just about sums up this cutie patootie image from MFT pure innocence stamps, this one is called Better get better and also comes with the sentiment "sending well wishes" which i also stamped in the centre of this card it was made for our create and take at work.
She also has the most amazing sparkly shoes and little heart in her hair thanks to stickles!!
I have also used some MFT dies, open scalloped edge and rounded banner trio die, these seem to be my thing of the moment and my collection is ever growing!!
I have had a couple of visitors to my garden this week, i think this little deer was trying to hide from me and didn't realise there wasn't any leaves on my hibiscus yet!
And then along came a lil birdie!!
I always have my camera handy as you never know when you might need it and i have recently discovered i can take black and white piccies YAY!
