I had two cards to post yesterday but didn't get a chance...I had to take my Mum and Dad into town again to get their eyes tested this time,I don't know if I've said but my Mum is partially deaf in both ears and my Dad is deaf in his left ear, neither can get on with their earing aids so tend to leave them out,so if people don't speak up they sometimes don't hear at all or only get a small part of the conversation it makes for some funny answers and yesterday was no exception...I went in with my Mum who looked a bit like Benny Hill's character Fred Scuttle (Wow I'm showing my age remembering that) so I got the giggles made worse by the fact of the lovely man doing the test saying everything really loud and slowly..so that was my day yesterday but anyway onto my first card please scroll down for the second one...
I would like to enter this card into the following challenge...
Friday Sketchers - Sketch
I have used one of the images from Pink Gem Designs coloured with polychromos pencils blended with sansodor...I cut and matted the image then pricked all around the edge....all of the card,paper,ribbon and gems are from my stash trying to use some of my scraps up...
The corners have been punched with a woodware punch..the sentiment is a rub on....I have flipped the sketch...
On to my second card.....
I would like to enter this one into the following challenge.....
Sketch Saturday - Sketch
This time I have used a stamp from Sugar Nellie called Rory he is soo cute again I have coloured with polychromos....I have cut and matted him with my nesties and used wild honey to blend around the edge...the white card I ran through my swirls embossing folder..the DP I have used a piece from both sides it is S.E.I happy day it has glitter on the flowers but the pic doesn't show this very well...The star is cut out with a woodware punch and the buttons are from my stash...The sentiment is from a papermania set... I have the day to myself again so I'm off to put some washing on and then make a card.....Take care..

Hi Mandy been reading your post about your mum and dad, my mum is the same she is practically deaf and also partially sighted everything you say you have to repeat and talk so loud then she misses things you say so it takes a bit of getting used to shouting lol....loving both your cards the freshness and fun of the first the marvellous image and design of the second loving that star with the button in the middle great touch.
