Friday Sketchers



I thought it was time that I made a boyish card. I've been too girly recently and that just isn't me. I like boy colours! For this one I have followed the fab sketch over at Friday Sketchers. Really enjoyed making this one.



The image is a Magnolia Edwin image. I am unsure what it's called because it was sent to me a long time ago. I have coloured it with watercolour pencils, cut it out and mounted on foam pads. The circle was cut on the Bug with the Nesties. Ribbon and cardstock are from my stash. The paper is a new one I picked up the last time I was at the craft shop. A double-sided paper by Kaiser called Rough and Tumble - Wild. Not my usual choice of papers but since I don't have many male papers, I grabbed it as soon as I saw it - really glad I did now.

Today, Wee Steven had to have his pre-school boosters. I did what I have done with the others and gave the promise of some pennies to buy a new toy after we had visited the nurse. I hadn't realised that he needed 2 jags. I also hadn't planned on the first one going wrong and half the fluid running down his arm. The nurse was very apologetic and said she had no idea what had went wrong - not really her fault. However, we now have to go through it all again in a couple of weeks since he didn't get a full dose. And...he also has to have a swine flu injection soon. My purse is going to be empty at this rate, lol. I am just waiting for him to catch the chickenpox that are being passed round the nursery now!
On a better note, he only had a wee cry going to nursery this afternoon AND...he went to his OWN bed with NO tears at all tonight. So, fingers crossed!

Anyway, I am off to catch up with NCIS now. Thanks for taking the time to visit.
