Just one to share

Hi Everyone!

I'm such a bad blogger at the moment I know - forgive me? It's been a very stressful 6 weeks or so since I moved back from Bristol to home. I started my new job and then we went into a run of 21 days without a break (thanks to all the bank holidays) with lots of activities and entertainments at the historic property I work at. So between that and still looking for a permenant job i've been exhausted and spent more nights then I care to think of laid up with a headache.

However, I did finally get round to making a couple of cards in the last week I thought I'd share. The first is this one, I love this little guy and so glad I finally got him on a trip for some supplies on Monday. I've made this card really simple as I wanted to let the image speak.
 
I kept this card really simple and only mounted him once on pale brown paper stock and added a couple of candy pips top and bottom. The image is watercoloured.

I made this for an old work friend whose moving into a new house (rented) with a friend, so I felt a 'New Home' card wasn't 100% accurate or appropriate so the inside of this card reads I hope your new abode treats you well and that many happy hours of laughter, love and friendship are made and remembered here'.

Well as i'm not up to speed on any challenge blogs at the moment, this isn't being entered for anything - I just thought I'd share.

I'll be back later in the week with the other cards, I just need to finish mounting them and taking photos!

Take care and happy crafting xx
