Just popped over to my chum Max’s blog and she’s giving away some blog candy to celebrate 2000 visitors – she only started the blog in March so that is going some!!! Well done Max 
While I was there I noticed that she had a link to blog candy at A STAMPING & CHIRPING Corner. This lady (stampingcaz) has some amazing cards on her site – I feel inspired to get the stamps out that I bought on ebay recently and haven’t got around to using.
Had a few home problems this week – wish there was an easy way of deciding whether it’s autism or normal pre-teen boy that is causing the challenging behaviour from my son …
Not had much time for crafting but had cards to make for best friend and aforesaid son as well as my brother (see previous post)
Here’s my best friend’s card – hope she likes it
and my son’s – he is hooked on Mario Kart – I’ve even managed to get a Mario Cake from Sainsbugs as well …
George has come up trumps again!
Had three cards to make this week – two for the same person and one for my long lost brother [Long story but only discovered he existed four years ago!!!]
The ones for a chap at our church were easy with George at Work … he works in the building trade and also does a lot of DIY so I used George the bricklayer and George the handyman …
I had to draw the ladder myself for the handyman – think I did a reasonable job personally!!!
The bricklayer has ‘brick’ texture under the bricks from a fiskar texture plate – just starting to get to grips with these and not too good at it yet !
My brother works for Snap-On tools (hope I’ve got that right!) and so the Handyman George was ideal again …
I used paper from dcwv – retro and also words for the backing – ribbon was from Let’s Make cards issue 15 and the ‘brother’ retro chipboard was from an issue of Let’s Make cards earlier this year (12???)
