You might have guessed from my title I have no idea what this thing is called! Nige says its a something sphere, but he can't say what! So if you know please tell me so I can put a googling hubby out of his misery!
Its the start of a new challenge over at My Time To Craft today & we have the dreaded theme of
MEN ONLY!!
yeah I know the dreaded male card, but hey if you join in with us its one extra male card to
your collection lol!!
I had this stamp set free with (I think) the Docrafts magazine, maybees last month & its sat there staring at me. As I had no papers to match I had to get the 'Chronology' stack by Papermania & they are gorgeous!
Hope you like my attempt at something sooo not me! lol
