Simply Adorable Thomas.............

Good evening my lovelies bet you didnt think I would be back especially this late lol.......my body has just gone past the tirement stage now & I decided to craft to take my mind off things.
I have made a boys card tonight & do you know what I really enjoyed making it & I found it all flowed together nice & easily. Surprising what a good selection of papers & fab sketch will do lol.
This is the adorable 'Thomas' from Sugar Nellie Adorable range which of course you can get from Funky Kits. I do have a slight complaint which is a first as I truly love this shop, however on the digital side I think you should be able to buy 1 single image, I have tried a few times & it tells me I have to spend a minimum of £5. Whilst I completely understand minimum spends I think digital items should not have this & this then makes you buy at least 2......which to me is unfair. Good job I love ALL of these adorables lol & have to have them all anyway lol.

This is to show you all the layers.

Thomas is indeed a digi image & he was coloured with Copics.
E00 E21 R11 E50 E31.............will write the others in tomorrow cus I forgot them lol

Papers used are my new Bo Bunny 'Blast Off' this pad is lush & the colours are fab so out came my bright A4 card. Raffia from my stash & the bunting I made with my WOJ Pennants die, I used the metal die to cut out the paper & I drew around the plastic template onto card to layer underneath & attached Bakers Twine along the top.

Well thats it for me Natalie is still awake & not settled yet so I will do some hopping until she settles.
Thankyou for all your comments this week about my cards but more importantly regarding my health it really has meant a lot & I loves ya all mmwah.
Welcome to all my new followers, thank you soooooooo much for being here & I hope you enjoy & like it here.
Tatty bye peeps, take care & keep on smiling

Zoe was still up past midnight as she's lost her favourite teddy as school and would't settleand I'm having a cuppa before bed. This is gorgeous though. Love your colouring and not used this pad yet.

Sara H said...

Wow! Love this card! Your colouring is perfect!!!

Teri said...

At last! I get to comment on your blog!! Believe me I have been trying for days, but blogger has been such a pain redirecting me to the blooming sign in page all the time. I think it is something to do with the embedded comments rather than the pop up windows, as I can usually comment on those no probs.
Anyway, wanted to say how lovely all your new cards are - awesome as ever hun!!
Hope the pains aren't too awful for you, any news from the scans yet?
Have a great BH weekend hun, we don't do that one here in Scotland :(
Hugs,

Fab image/colouring and fantastic layout sweetie. Sorry you couldn't sleep as you were over tired. I agree about the £5 limit, it is silly as they are not posting it and they don't physically have to parcel it up.
