Well in some ways this has been an outdoors weekend as we are getting back into the swing of things following Christmas, New Year and a long bout of illness. The weather has been surprisingly mild so Alex and I went to a different park each day to run off some energy and have some fun. Yesterday afternoon was spent chasing a cheeky monkey round Endcliffe Park,
whereas today we went to Spider park for some clambering, football and games of chase.
This weekend it is also time for the first
QUIRKY CRAFTS challenge of the year. The theme was chosen by Lyn of Something New with pink. We have two sponsors this week, Bugaboo and Doodle Dragon. I was given a cute little image called 'Peapod Boo' to work with so I used her on a New Baby tag. I inked all around her with distress ink, then stamped swirls with an inkadinkado stamp. I added the word 'Dream' using a crafty individuals stamp and then added various embellishments from my stash (lace, flowers, star and butterfly). I am entering this into
MTTC 'All about the new',
Flutterby Wednesday 'In with the new',
Simon Says Stamp 'new something', and
Cute card Thursday 'something new'.
I also made a birthday card for my father-in-law using Darkroom Door steampunk and crafty individual stamps and distress inks. I am entering this into
Crafty Creations 'Anything goes',
Fresh Brewed 'Anything goes' and
Stampin for the weekend 'Anything goes'. That is all from me. I am back to work tomorrow, and Alex is back to school. Have a great week.
Love,
Caro
