'KAPOW!'

WOW! I can't believe its nearly a week since I last posted anything....so not like me! I have had a few days rest, doing nothing but watch movies & sleep. Thankfully our Danni has now finished school until September when she goes to collage so she's been keeping me company! 

I'm not sure what was the matter, but I think it was a combination of my M.E. being a b**ger & me getting stressed out last weekend with Nige being away! Yeah I'm daft but I did miss him like mad & after he said he'd hurt his back I just wanted to look after him! 

Yeah even after nearly 18yrs together I miss him like mad....how sad am I? LOLOL!!!

Anyhoos, today's card has been made using a new release from The Stamping Chef! Which if you purchase it over the weekend you will get a 20% discount.....you also get 3 fab digi papers & a pre coloured version of the image, for those quick cards!

I haven't finished it yet because my printer is playing up! But the text on the front says.....Is It A Bird? Is It A Plane? Then the middle bit says 'KAPOW!' which when flicked around will have a picture of me & Nige on.....but I'm going to put the same papers on the back. But the text will say 'No It's Nige My Very Own Superhero!' 

I just wanted him to know that I am so proud that he managed to do 

'Ben Nevis' in under the 5 hours!

'Steampunk or Vintage'

 Just to let you know, how Nige did. He managed to walk up & down Ben Nevis with no problems, but when he went to walk up Scafell Pike his back gave out on him. My poor boy, after months of training only managed Ben Nevis......but that is ok because he had already done the other two before. He is now home & safe where he belongs, I might be able to sleep tonight!

Even tho he didn't manage to finish it all I am still so proud of my gorgeous hubby xx

Today erm sorry yesterday was the start of this months Sparkles challenge. I totally forgot what day it was, with both of the girls taking exams & Nige away from Thursday doing his walk, my brain was total mush!!!

So what's the theme I hear you ask, well I must admit I really enjoyed making this card & Abigale was fab to colour in!

'Triptic'

Today is the start of a new challenge over at My Time To Craft. This week we have a challenge inspired by a set of pictures I saw in The Range. There was a gorgeous set of three canvases of one picture split into three. So I just wondered what it would look like using a stamped image on a card!

'TRIPTIC'

I really spent way to much time deciding what image to use for this, I wanted something with a lot going on. I remembered some Bugaboo images I won ages ago that I hadn't used.....so in the end I decided on this one! Oh what a faff this was to decoupage, but I think it looks ok!
