'Whoop, Whoop.....I'm Back!!!'

After having a year away from 'Moving Along With The Times' I am happy to say Hazel asked me back & I was very happy to say yup of course!!! I have really missed nattering to the girlies on there. I just wanted to say thank you to Hazel for having me back & the girls for making me feel so welcome!!

My first challenge back is a great one as I needed to make a card from Charlie (greyhound) Freddie (Gecko) & Stevie (my fish) for Fathers Day. I'm also gonna put love from our soon to be baby stinker! lol!

As you have probably guessed this weeks theme is...

FATHERS DAY!

I decided to use one of my Crafter's Companion stamps, that I seem to have had for ages but never used....slapped wrists!


Nige's hair isn't quite that scary, but it is getting very grey lol!
