Hi Everyone
I hope you have all had a good day .. .. and not got caught up in too much rain.
Definitely April showers in my neck of the woods all day .. .. but with little bursts of sunshine in-between. What a late friend of mine used to call "growing weather". I always think of him even more come April. He was such a lovely man.
Anyway, round to my share for the day .. .. no flowers or fancy bits tonight because I have had a request for a load of male cards .. .. so it may be a week of those I'm afraid!! Eeekk!! No pretty bits!!! LOL!!!
So here we go:
This used:
Image: Lili of the Valley
Sentiment: Pink Petticoat
Backing Papers: Nitwits
Fiskars Punch: Threading Water
Josy Rose: Nail Heads
ProMarkers
Cord and Brad from the Stash Box
I hope you all have a good weekend and that you find a bit of crafty time for yourself.
Fish and chip night for me so I am off to start banging my knife and fork up and down on the table mat as I think hubby has just about finished cooking the culinary delights!! LOL!!!
Everyone always comments on how lucky I am to have a hubby that will cook. This is true. I am lucky .. .. and I know that I am .. .. but he does make a heck of a mess!! Come tomorrow I will find mushy peas splattered all over the cooker top and I have even been known to find them down the cupboard doors .. .. and I won't mention the floor.
But having said that it always tastes good so a girl must be grateful.
Catch you again tomorrow.
Love
Fabulous male card Jules, love the image so cute and fantastic colouring and great papers...enjoy the weekend.

Hi Jules,
ReplyDeleteGreat male card,i love making male cards as sometimes not having to worry about where to put all the pretty bits is nice lol :)
I know how you feel whenever my OH cooks for me...he always leaves me a good old mess and the washing up to do afterwards lol

Hi Jules, what a cutie image!! and of course a gorgeous card you made with it!!! have a great w/end!
ReplyDeleteYou lucky girl. I could just do with a plate of home cooked fish and chips.
ReplyDeleteI don't mind seeing mens cards for a week or so. I think we all need inpsiration for those at times. Great card - looking forward to seeing the next.

I am running out of adjectives Jules. I think I will have to dig out my thesaurus,lol! As usual this is gorgeous, perfectly coordinated and just so perfect! I love your stash of papers that just 'happen' to match a stamp perfectly.

Gorgeous male Card and i love those little scissors....
ReplyDeleteAww this is fab Jules! what a wonderful image! I love those delish papers and the little scissors - it's a great design! I quite like male cards - you know where you are with them, no faffing about deciding where to put the flowers, lace etc.!!! LOL

Big Hugs!

love this tinkering diy bear, so adorable and perfect for any guy! :-D
ReplyDeleteNow that paper couldn't be any more perfect! Fantastic guy card Jules. :-) You are one lucky duck if your hubby cooks. Mine does it occasionally and I've never been able to figure out how most of the pepper shaker contents ends up around the stove top instead of in the pan. LOL Being messy must be part of being a male cook. Hope you enjoyed your dinner. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteI think its wonderful that you will be doing male cards, I need all the inspiration I can get. Love this! Great background paper and I love that image. I know he is taking a brake but it makes me think of the sign in Jim's work shop that said 'If all else fails read the directions.'
ReplyDeleteHugs
Hi Jules, a fab card for a fella & such a cute image. I love the Nitwits papers you use. I won't let my hubby near my kitchen 'cos of all the mess he creates but bless 'im he was a chef for 25 yrs so he deserves a rest!
ReplyDeleteSally x
Fab card Jules. I always find male cards a challenge, so I love your ideas.
ReplyDeleteKath x
Fab card - the papers are perfect for that image :o)
ReplyDeleteHubby does most of the cooking in our house, and just like you I know it's great... but the amount of stuff he breaks and all the mess lol! Hugs, Lisa x
Ahh Jules, my hubby is exactly the same! His food tastes divine, but what I could make in one saucepan, he makes in 5, using every cooking implement out of the drawer and splatting bits everywhere! Sooo frustrating! So I feel your pain hehe. Cute teddy builder ;) M x
ReplyDeletefabulous male card jules.love the fab image and really great papers :D
ReplyDeletexx coops xx
Hi Jules, Great card ... love the image but thank goodness my handyman is more enthusiastic and skilled than that :) The backing paper is brilliant. I expect you enjoyed your fish and chip supper last night and that the mushy peas have been cleaned up by now :))Elizabeth x
ReplyDeleteNow this looks like my pace of DIY "right said Fred,let's have another cup of tea..." :0)
ReplyDeleteLove all the fun backing papers and the scissors charm :0)
