Ice Cream Bear

 Hi Everyone, a DT card for Deedee's Digis. This little bear is from her Ice Cream Truck kit, I decided to colour the bear myself and play with PS fur brushes, I love the texture it gives her, Yep! she's a her, I know 'cause of the bow LOL. I used a die cut on each edge after printing and cutting the image out. I added the sentiment from the kit, after recolouring the background to match the background of the bear.

Bear and sentiment Deedee's Digis
Die cut is Tattered Lace

Dance Team England Dance World Cup

Hi Everyone, I don't know if you remember, but I told you my Great Niece was in the England Dance Team World Cup Competition in Romania. I am VERY proud to inform you that the Team won for the third year running and  my G Niece got 2 Gold and a Silver and a Bronze. They also had a letter off the Queen congratulating the Team. I'm so thrilled for them and especially our Millie.

Boy Card

Hi Everyone, I have my new computer, then loaded it with a VERY bad virus. I tried to load a program I have been using for a few years and said yes to my virus checker when it asked if I wanted to download it!!!!!!!!!!  Oh! why didn't I listen to it. I have very nearly bought myself a new hard drive to get rid of it, then thankfully my son suggested another malware cleaner, which eventually got rid of it - I HOPE! I don't think I will ever catch up with everyone, my apologies.

Anyhow, here I am with a card for the Outlawz Freebie Progressive Challenge. I love this image from Jen Leeflang she hasn't a shop but you can see her work HERE. The card was designed and image coloured in Photoshop, I layered it all and 3D'd the boy..

I have returned!

Hi Everyone, my apologies for being AWOL, but my computer finally died on me, I have had a new one and started on line yesterday, I was lucky to have been able to save most of my files, but have to do a bit of sorting, so will be slow getting back into the swing of things.

I had hundreds of blogs to comment on, but have made the decision to not catch up, it wouldn't be fair on the ones I don't get to. Please understand. I will get around to your blogs as soon as I can on your most recent posts.

It seems this is my 600th post. WOW! not bad considering I don't post everyday, it's an achievement and milestone for me.

I have made a couple of cards - without the computer! can you believe it, but they are still in my camera, I'll post when I can. In the meantime, how about a couple of birdies? These were taken just before "melt down".

Once upon a time there was a little Sparrow named Jack! Jack Sparrow
 (you know Johnny Depp from the Pirates of the Caribbean films!)

Is my Mum or Dad here?

They told me to meet them here!

OK! I'll wait here

I'm getting REALLY hungry now!

I won't look at you until you have food, I'm starving!

PLEASE feed me!

Thanks Dad, I knew you would come and feed me

Thanks Dad you were only teasing me weren't you? -
No Son, I was trying to teach you that food was
only inches away and you could help yourself.
You'll have to learn a lot of things to survive in this big wonderful world!

Hope to see you soon
