Hello, and welcome!
I am sooooo excited! This time next week I'll be in Northern Ireland, visiting with Jonathan, Tanys, and Bevan...woohoo!
It's only 4 weeks since they moved over there, but I have been missin' them so much, and I can't wait to give them all great big hugs...an' kisses....and more hugs...did I mention kisses?...haaaaa!
It's not certain whether Dundersoldest grandson, tud (Ken) will be coming with me, because he's actually scheduled to work next Saturday.......but he may just be able to get somebody to cover him.....I'm keepin' fingers and toes crossed....
Been doing a bit more shopping for Christmas gifts...got all the grandchildren's, except 14 years old Jack's.......I'm really struggling with that one.....and just need to get tons of stocking fillers......oh.........and gifts for 16 adults....gulp...........oh 'eck! Maybe Dunderstud should actually work next Saturday.....we'll need the pennies....haaaa!
Wish I had more time to get down to all those Christmas cards I still need to make.....looks like some folks are gonna get shop-bought.....just can't seem to get enough done, fast enough......
Also still need several birthday cards for December. and this one is for my grandson, Lewis, who will turn 10........Lewis has a dog...a big dog......she's a Labrapoodle named Chocolate.........guess who got to name her.........ME!.....haaaa......
She's huge, chocolate brown, and very fluffy....and she and Lewis are great pals........
I've had this image for an age, and knew that I would be using it for a card for Lewis.........the papers are from DCWV, and the image (freebie from TLC) is coloured up with Promarkers, as per usual...keep meaning to try something else, but PMs are just so flippin' good ........
I used my PM blender to add spots on the green car, just to add a bit of interest........
The ribbon is from my stash, and I popped a button on each end.......also did my usual handstitchin'........
Popped up on foam squares................I think Lewis will like it!
Would love to know what you think.........I really do appreciate the time you take to leave me a comment :)
Hugs,

Wow, that is a lovely card, I am sure Lewis will love it. Any photos of Chocolate, the dog, love Labrapoodles, they are so fluffy.
ReplyDeleteHappy travels next weekend, I am sure they are missing you as much as you are missing them.
Your card is ideal for 10yr old Lewis. Do have a great time in Ireland,its a lovely country but watch out for the leprechauns.xxx
ReplyDeleteThis is really cute! I'm sure Lewis will love it!
