A little Word Art–Freebies

I had an email the other day from a lovely lady asking about round sentiments, I have to be honest when saying it’s not something I think about very often, one reason being that it isn’t very often I add a sentiment and the other being that if I want one I just go ahead and make one, Sometimes we forget that what comes as the normal for one person isn’t or doesn’t come natural to the other.

So here is three that you can use, please follow my terms of use do not share and send people to here if anyone asks you for them.

First Day at School

Such a big thing in a little child's life isn’t it? Out of the safety net that has led them through their life so far, i think it must be really daunting as well as exciting, I remember how tired my two were when they got home, full of chatter of what they had done that day. I also remember feeling quite lost without them and the constant check of time awaiting to go an pick them up from school.

First Day at School by Sassy Cheryl’s you’ll need to be quick to get him as he is in the bargain bin poor soul.

Coloured with Copic and Promarkers and a little bit of prisma pencils

Dirty girl

Uh oh will my desk ever be tidy

New Images

Just Inklined has some new images this week and I think Over the Moon would make a brilliant Congratulations card for a graduate, something totally different that the young ones would love.

Cat and the Fiddle for a young musician, and any of the Hick Dick Dock to mark a special time for someone, what a great way to bring a smile to someone you love.

Sailor Boys

Don’t you just love it when colouring and all the colours just fit right, well this one did for me.

I sat and enjoyed the relaxation of colouring without having to rush it.

Sailor Boys by Mo’s Digital pencil I think Mo did an amazing job with this set.

sailor boys 3.1

Coloured with Copic markers and prisma pencils. paper from my stash, Prima blossom and ribbon from Ribbon Carousel.

sailor boys 3.2

I wanted the card to have a vintage look to it so kept the colours muted, I think I managed it.

This is the full set available from Mo’s digital Pencil

Fake Steak Bake - Slimming World Style

Once again I'm trying to be good and make the right choices in my eating, I won't be using the big D word as it sends me into a frenzy before I start.
I am trying to cut back on bread, not an easy task when it comes to lunch for work but last week I made pastryless quiche and this week I've made fake steak bakes for both myself and Chris.

Asda wholemeal pittas, tin of Aldi Hunters steak, mushrooms, onions.

Open pittas and stuff with the above place on a baking tray brush top with egg bake until golden viola a much healthier option.
