Morning........

Morning Everyone,
I'm on a roll here,second load of washing is in the machine, first lot is on the line already...I've been busy for the last few days,I've done a spring clean at Mum and Dad's house,cut the grass and just sorted out the garden for them....Then yesterday it was my house's turn for a blitz so both houses are now sorted ,we are going to the garden center later so we can do our garden,it won't be so hard as doing Dad's garden as Hubby is here to do most of it.... And in between all of that I've caught up with some DT work which you'll see next week....Anyway here is a card that I made earlier in the week for a friends daughter,she's a 12 year old girly girl but has a major thing for pirates,so here's what I came up with.....


I've used one of the Go Kreate large dies for the card base then used two of the smaller dies to make the mat's.....Then I had to use Tilda as a pirate for the image she has been coloured with Polychromos pencils blended with sansador and cut out with another Go Kreate die....I've gone around the edge with some glitter....


The fabulous ribbon is from Crafty Ribbons and comes in gorgeous colours....All of the flowers are from Mulberry crafts and the ticket sentiment is from a Whimsy Stamps set from Stampezzee....
So that's all for now,I do have some other bits to show you so see you tomorrow....
Have lovely weekend...Take care..
