All Dressed Up New Release - Dude

 Good morning again Sorry for all this lateness with my posts. I have had not the best of weeks with some Family issues that dont think are going to be settled so big adjustments to be made.

That being I need my crafting to help but this means I will have less time for it but hopefully I can work round it and grab as much time. 

So that said this post should have gone out on the 22nd not best start for a New DT but the ladies have been so kind and understanding they really are a lovely team.

We are show caseing the new release that Wendy has added to the store HERE

My image is called Dude

Isnt he just the best and one that think if you have Little Boys you really do need to get.

This is a large 8x8 inch card and although it is 6 months to my Grandsons Birthday I think I might just save and add his name. By that time my Pup wont fit in any pockets lol.

I have coloured the image with my Promarkers and the odd Copic

Tonic, Spellbinders & Time For Tea dies

Ribbon from stash and I found this 12inch Dp in my box and I just had to use. The stars I though was perfect with the image and the papers are Double sided so the reverse is the striped paper. I think it is either a Tim Holts or from the Works either way it is lovely thick paper

Added a few foam glitter stars as we like a little sparkle.

You can find more inspiration on the Blog and also their Facebook Page.

We would love you to come and join us in our challenges. 

Well thanks for the visit and please pop back again soon
