George's Card

Hello there! How are you today? I hope you are enjoying the sunshine! I am hoping to run this morning as the girls go back to school so I hope that it isn't too warm. I'm a bit useless when its a bit warm! We had a very warm cycle ride on Saturday - but it was lots of fun - its not far really but the girls managed 13 miles so I was very pleased with them.







They are lovely! So glad I have them - they really keep me going!!

I went to see my dad in hospital yesterday - he was fabulous - I think he may be home today or tomorrow!!!

Today I have another card using the image from the Katzelkraft Jungle set. Its for a young boy!


I stamped the monkey then masked him off, added a clarity circle stencil and used distress inks to ink in the background. Then I used a clarity stencil and distress ink to add the leafy detail.


I removed the mask and coloured the monkey then added the text - my friend has some of my letters and I'm finding it hard to write! Must get them back!!!

Big hugs for a good day!
