Eskimo Kisses - Siku & Shiya / Create4fun challenge

I loved playing with this image to make it 3D if you look closely you can see all of the fur has dimension and also the little skirting on Shiya's coat.
The image is by Mo Manning and called Siku and Shiya and can be purchased here and I think it is the sweetest image I have ever seen.
The frame was made using the nestabilities Squares and then embossed with the Limited edition 2009 snowflake cuttlebug folder I know a few of you have been searching for that folder and I have seen it on eBay and I was also told that Custom Crops had some in stock.
I coloured the image with Copic Markers.

Clean and Simple was my theme for this little beauty, I've had the Reach for the Stars image for a while and new it would make a beautiful Christmas card and I wasn't disappointed.

Game On- Fab'n'Funky challenge

This is one of those images that will be used over and over in our family it would work from teenages up to grown men, I knew this one was a winner as my Mam claimed the card even before it was made ha ha!

The image is Game On by Mo Manning and can be purchased here.
Just look at the concentration on his face, woe betide anyone who dares to walk in front of him.
Colouring medium - Copic Markers
Papers - DCWV
Embellishments - Buttons

I truly think every one of us has one of these guys at home. I know it's a pose I often see Chris in. He often challenges Natalie (daughter) to a game of some kind and then both of them makes it their mission into getting a higher score than other.

Even secret practices happen. They just never grow up do they?

Jack Helping with the housework

I know, I know it's pink but Jack was desperate to have a broom or a vacuum so what else could a Gran do.

We had Jack to ourselves all afternoon as his Mum has just had her tonsils removed and need some rest.

We had a funny thing happen at bathtime though eeek! I got his hair washed and his body and we were then playing with his bath toys when all of a sudden he let out one almighty pump, which on any other occasion would have been fine but Jack has had a dicky tummy and I can tell you now it wern't just air that came out "blech" we had brown water and he was still in it.

Needless to say I hollowed for Granda and we had to show him down.

Free Halloween Sheet

I've no card prepared for today so I hope you will forgive me, I was at the theatre last night with my Mam to see a play, a very funny one too. I'm not sure if I have already told you how amazing my Mam is but I wanted to tell you that she has started a computer course. When we lost Dad my Mam picked up a computer for the first time and loved it, she views many of the blogs from my Blog Links she surfs the WWW if she needs to find products and the likes and she wanted to know a bit more so she signed herself up and has even set up her own email address.
So rather than a card I know many of you have know started on your Halloween Cards so I've prepared a free sheet to help you on your way.
