Mo Manning has the most gorgeous little boy set of digi stamps out called Sailor Boys available from Mo’s Digital Pencil and I was itching to get started with them, I used Sailor Boy 1 and the Sailor Boy Dog for my card.
Within the set you get a few extras, I also used the toy soldiers on my card as an embellishment.
Coloured with Promarkers and Copic Markers.
I love that the dog has been dressed up too, I used to dress up my Siamese cat in my Tiny Tears dolls clothes when I was little.
I hope you have all had a fabulous Sunday, we have had a family Christening Day, baby Amelia Grace one of our families new baby girls.
Her big brother Alfie was so good today for a little guy.
Here he is with his Daddy
And here they all are along with God Parents during the ceremony. Amelia was as good as gold.
Edward Lear celebrates his 200th Birthday today so what better way to celebrate that with an Owl and a Pussycat digital stamps.
Just Inklined have a couple of stamps that will fit the bill
Leave you name in the Inlinkz link below and I will draw four winners to receive 1 of the digital stamps each.
No ink required.
I got the inspiration for these cards from my friend Emily as I have 2 Christenings coming up and loved the simplicity.
I over wrapped my cards on top of a pink card as our new babies are both of the girl variety.
And the second
And side by side
I thought I should show two cards today as I lost a whole day with a migraine on Wednesday and spent the whole day in bed.
Luckily I had pictures of Jack all ready to go.
I told you we had Jack for the afternoon the other day and we had wanted to take him to the seaside but as it happened the tide was in. We had already told him that we were going to buy a bucket and spade and that he could build sand castles.
So Granda to the rescue and as we couldn’t take Jack to the beach to play in the sand, good old Granda brought the beach to Jack.
Jack totally loved it and played for hours.
The next one is another from him watering the flowers for me.
Love that boy.
He is visiting us tonight and we get to get him ready for bed before his Mam picks him up.

I am bursting with pride for Chris my wonderful husband, he has been awarded The Queens Diamond Jubilee medal for his services in the Fire Brigade to the community.
This is his second medal for this as he also received one for Her Majesty's Golden Jubilee.
I thought you may like to see them both.

I think you will agree that this is such an honour for him.
So proud of you Chris.
I wanted to show the fabulous results you get with the new 3 pen shaded packs of Promarkers, I know that many of you struggle with choosing the colours that will work best together. So all the scratching of head and humming and haring has been done for you and Letraset have put together the shades that will work well for you.
Colour Blend sets that I used.

In the close up of the image you can see just how well the colours blend together. making it easy to get the light and darker shades working for you.
in my opinion anyone who struggles with the matching colours and shading will benefit from these sets.
