Hope you are all well on this glorious Sunday morning!, sun is shining even though it's a tad chilly brrrrrrr.
Very early today due to in the In-Laws coming for Sunday lunch and I have a tone to do before they descend on me!
So today's card is a stamp again I have add a while and never inked ( such a naughty girl ! ) and I think it's fab for a older boy. It's another Sugar Nellie stamp which I adore and I got very excited yesterday when my new Sassy Stamps arrived, but sadly cannot play with them until Wednesday boohoo. Spent last night mounting them onto E-Z Mount while watching the X-Factor, what did you think?. Thought Tracy, Mary and Matt were fantastic, Cher and Katie sang little better and Aidan was slightly disappointing :o(. Love the song Aidan sang, but think it was just to big for him. And Wanger just makes me smile LOL!

ReplyDeleteYour an early poster today Vicky!
ReplyDeleteThis is gorgeous, I struggle with boy cards, sometimes I make them a bit childish when they are for a grown up boy, but this is perfect, very grown up. Papers again are so nice and have you used a bit of blue cord, its so nice. Debbiex
What a great card! Love the image and papers - your layering looks fab, great layout :o) Lisa x
ReplyDeleteOh that looks lovely - I love the papers and the image. I've not got into the xfactor at all this year but did put it on last night when Cher was on - but had to switch channels!!
ReplyDeleteFantastic love the layout and the image is beautifully coloured, I just hope those 2 diva's go tonite.

Fab card, I have this stamp & love it, but don't have occasion to use it very often. Like the way the spotty backing paper echoes his belt. Didn't get to watch x factor lst night as I had to take my youngest out to a fundraising party of a group she has just joined - but it was dreadful, so cliquey, no-one looked at us, let alone spoke! She said she wanted to go after 15 mins, we'd much rather have been at home! Enjoy your lunch xx
ReplyDeletegreat card Vixx, boys cards are so tricky but you have it sussed and your blog is brilliant, so inspiring, looking forward to following you.
