Good Luck Card

Hya,




Did you have a good weekend? Mine was a little odd. Hubby and daughter have gone for a little quality time together. This means that all is very quiet in this household at the moment. As usual though if things are going wrong it will happen now. My cat has got a cut paw and is down is feeling very sorry for herself. Oh boy!!

So onto the card. I know what you are thinking, those pesky shirts again.One of Lauren's teachers left her school on friday. She thought alot of this teacher and wanted to say 'Thanks and Good Luck'. He loves his sport and was totally made up with this card. All the card was used from my stash of cardstock. The white ribbon was the lovely whisper white and the sentiment was done on the computer and cut out using the Oval Punch and the Scalloped Oval punch.





So, on that note i am off to check on my mog. I also need to get my class ready for the weekend. Have a good week.

Fathers Day

Hya,

Happy fathers day. Is all ok?
I wanted to share with you something that happened to Lauren and I yesturday. We went into Leeds market to get a few bits and pieces like you do. I was engrossed on a friut stall checking out some lovely strawberries when Lauren said ' Mum, there is a potato with a smiley face'. When i looked up there was a pile of new potatoes and right at the very top was a potato that looked like it was smiling. She eventually convinced me to ask the stallholder if we could buy it. After explaining why we only wanted one perticular potato, the stallholder packed the potato for Lauren and gave her it as a present for making his day and putting a big smile on his face. Now all i can say is that Lauren has protected the now named Peter Potato and he now has pride of place on our mantle. Everyone who has seen said potato and photo has had a good chuckle.
So, here is a photo of Peter with a shirt that was made at Julies Jems training night.


And now for me to show you a card that has been made for fathers day. Julie, my Stampin' Up mum showed us how to make these shirts to go on cards for men. This card has been made with some of my favourite colours Taken with Teal and Choc Chip. I will be sad to see Taken with Teal go when it retires soon. The ribbon is the Soft Suede polka dots. I have punched the greeting using the Oval Punch and the Scalloped Oval Punch.

Well i hope this has made you smile as much as it made us smile. Have a good week.
