Superhero Brother

Hope your all ready for the Bank Holiday, Hopefully were going to have some family time as everyone will be home for once.  Now both my two eldest work it's hard to do anything as a family. So looking quite forward to it.
So it's Saturday morning so It's time for a new challenge today at Allsorts.
This week is our lovely Wendy's turn to host and she would like to see 'Ribbons - More than just a bow'

So I've made these Rosettes before and it's a great way to use up scraps of ribbon, and work quite good on masculine cards too.  I don't know the brand of my stamp as it was an online buy on Amazon.

Forest Friends

Good Morning bloggers, it's Saturday morning so It's time for a new challenge today at Allsorts.
This week is my turn to host and I would like to see 'Forest Friends', there's lots of options for this, you could have Badgers, Squirrels, Hedgehogs and Deer etc...................

I did not know I was going to use this stamp when I picked the theme, thought I would have gone for some mice actually, I don't use this stamp a lot as it's quite big and hard to embellish up.  It comes in a set and part of that set is the acorn border stamp which I used.

At Stamping Sensations this month the theme is 'Anything Goes', I decided to go with a Christmas image, and one I haven't used as yet, isn't it cute, a Wild Rose Studio Christmas Mouse.  So my Spellbinder Poinsettia dies came out as I love using them, I put my sentiment into a die cut bauble and a bit of gingham finished it off.

Beep Beep!

Good Morning bloggers, it's Saturday morning so It's time for a new challenge today at Allsorts.
This week is our lovely Mervi's turn to host and she would like to see 'Colours Of Your Flag'

As mine is the British flag (Union Jack) my colours on my card are Red, White and Blue.  When I think of the Union Jack flag I think of this Mini from Penny Black,  then I thought about my Daughters driving test next week and thought it would be the perfect image.  I know I'm being a bit premature but she has to pass at some point.
