Using up Ribbon Scraps - Card for Soldiers

It took me a while but I got a card made, I’ve coloured lots but this is the first one I’ve managed to get made up.

This is Soldier Girl by Mo’s Digital Pencil the is also Soldier Boy in the shop too, I thought it would be perfect for sending to Mams and Dads in the forces or as a welcome home card.

Now the good part, camouflage with my left over ribbon scraps from Ribbon Carousel I don’t like wasting any.

A great way to use up those scraps of ribbon.soldier girl2

Don’t be put off with doing the camouflage, it’s so easy, just pick your colours and start splodging. I also coloured up the Soldier Boy but as yet he hasn’t made it into card form.

Tomorrow is a busy day and I have a Christening (my Nieces baby, Layla) and a Wedding (my boss), Thankfully we are staying at the wedding venue so I’ll be able to go and rest for a while, so tomorrow I will put on my happy face and enjoy the day best I can, the wedding venue is beautiful so I’ll try to get some photo’s.

Digital Scrapbooking With the Renz Family

 

I'm sure you will remember my beautiful friend Katie Renz, well I keep in touch with Kevin her husband and Elizabeth, Kevin's Mom. The boys are growing fast, especially Hunter, every time I see a new photo of him I'm always blown away at how grown up he is now. I see Kevin in him too.

Elizabeth recently sent me some photographs of all three boys from her last stay and I had a little play with them and came up with some digital scrapbook pages, perfect for doing whilst my back is bad.

Hunter

It is a photo that Hunter actually likes too so it must be a winner.

Big Decisions'

I have decided to have a break from blogging, I’m not sure how long this will be for, I just know that I need to put myself first for a wee while. My nights sleep are getting less and the back pain is getting worse, it may be that I’m just suffering for having such a wonderful weekend at the Proms in the Park.

I feel like I’m in a very lonely place at the moment and I’m exhausted trying to hold myself so that I can relieve the pain.

I hope you all understand as this wasn’t a light hearted decision, I love blogging and the company you all give me.

If I manage to get any cards done I will blog them but I’m just not going to force a card, it will be done in stages.

Going Up in the World

I love the thought of going up tin the world, climbing the next step of the ladder, so this would be perfect for such occasions.

Going up from Mo’s Digital Pencil , I used both boy and girl and merged them together.
