Hi Everyone
How was your Saturday? Good I hope?
Mine started off very lazy .. .. .. I didn't wake up until 9.30am which is one heck of a "lie-in" when you are normally awake at 6.00am!!!!
Today I have made a card which will fit nicely into the Teddy Bo Challenge. The theme is that your creations has to be "Teddy Bo only" .. .. so no other images .. .. it is Teddy Bo in the limelight and how gorgeous is he!!
Yesterday I treated myself to a few Teddy Bo and Teddy Bea images ready for some lovely colouring sessions over the weekend.
So here is my first Teddy Bo creation.
This used:
Image: Teddy Bo "Gone Fishing"
Backing Papers: Aimee Asher
Sentiment: Computer Generated using font "Ransome Note"
ProMarkers
Chalks
Gloss Accents (on my fish but you may not be able to see it in the photograph)
Cord and charm from the stash box
So today we have had lots of rain. We thought there would be little chance of gardening so instead went off to a local DIY store that is closing down .. .. .. just in case we could bag a few bargains.
We managed a few good buys (all garden related) but I had to laugh at my lovely hubby. He sauntered really slowly all around the store taking everything in as if he was the world's best DIY expert (I wish) .. .. .. but as we arrived at the wallpaper .. .. well I have never seen him move so fast in all my life. He was obviously worried I might see some paper I fancied LOL!!!
Off to link up now and then hopefully have a nice blog hop.
Love

Hi Jules, this is fabulous! The fly paper is just perfect!!! I'm in love with these Teddy Bo images but I'm so rubbish at colouring teddies that I've resisted buying any so far! We're also visiting one of the closing DIY stores tomorrow (feel so sorry for the staff)to get some paint and bits to start giving the house a mini makeover. xx
Guess what, I got up at 9.30am to, a few hrs later than usual myself. Must be the weather. Love your card and a fabulous image. enjoy your weekend

Hi Jules. Good idea to check out the bargains at the DIY store. We really need to do some decorating. Fab card, I love the image... you have coloured it so beautifully! xx Jenny xx
LOL! @ Your hubby! I would have spied the wallpapers too tho.
Now I simply LOVE this card, this image if fab with the fishing teddy bear, perfect for Fathers Day, its so awesmoe, love the colouring and papers, great lure paper!
You certainly did have a lie in, Jules. It's nice once in a while isn't it. The rain woke us at the crack of dawn and we toyed with the idea of having an early start for all of about 30 seconds!!!!
We are visitng the closing down DIY store on Monday to see what is to be had. It's a bit sad really as it's been there for as long as I can remember. We have so many empty shops in town too. Hard times are beginning to make their mark.
Your card is gorgeous. He made me smile, he looks quite surprised with his fish!!!
Looks like it's going to be a very unsettled weekend, just typical when we have the week off. Oh well, it's nice just to be out of the normal routine.
Enjoy the rest of the holiday.
Hugs Lisax
