Im alive Im alive!!

Phew - I bet you thought that i had run away!!!! Nopes Im back and i actually have some cardage too - woop woop!!!! Things have got crazy busy here, i have been doing too much overtime and have literally been going to bed once i tucked the lil ones in - crazy right!!!! I have made a few cards for birthdays and things, but where i am soo far behind and made them last minute - literally about an hour before i gave them out lol, i didn't have time to photo them, i did make sure i got a picture of the card i made for my cousin Kieran though, he was 8 on Wednesday :)

I love this image - Soccer Ian from the Greeting Farm. I do loooove their images soo much - perfect for my football mad cousin!! They are soo lovely to colour too - which is a good job too - I'm trying to 'master' my colouring technique - I have decided, i just need more copics LOL so i can feel a spending spree coming on - mind you i KNOW i deserve one, looking after wee Abigail all week long then working evenings and weekends too!!!!

The papers are my favourites at the moment, I know i say this tons, but this pad is delish!! Its called Joy Ride and they are Cosmo Cricket. It is an awesome pad for the guys, it has an orange, brown, purple, turqoise kinda theme running through the pad and it is sorta retro and modernish at the same time. Its just fab!! I love it!!
