Oops, I did it yet again

Trotted off on holiday without making a card needed a few days after we returned home, and even worse forgot about it until the very day it should have been there last week. And EVEN worse, it was for a boy - which I always struggle with anyhow :( Kenny K to the rescue:

I used:

- 6" x 6" square white card blank

- pre-coloured and die cut Kenny K image

- papers from papers from the 'Quilting Bee' paper pad by My Mind's Eye, the red dog tooth check is the first cut into the sheet I ended up using as a snippet on Sunday's card - as I said then, although the fronts of most papers are sewing themed, the reverses are perfect for cards for chaps, young and old

- sentiment is by Craftwork Cards, popped onto more red dog tooth check paper

- red card candi dots

Card made in 10 minutes flat, literally. You can see by the blurred photo that I was hopping up and down with stress before running out to post it!

Seize the Kenny K Birthday

The current challenge over at Seize the Birthday follows last week's sketch, only this week it's to make a card for the male of the species - always a tough call for me but here's my card:

And this is the sketch:

I used:

- A5 white card stock

- Kenny K image (pre-coloured!) from the Kool Kids set of four images, by The Hobby House

- SU 'Real Red' and 'Marina Mist' card behind the image and a strip of 'Real Red', run through the 'ribbler' (which I never, ever think to use)

- sentiment is from a set by Hero Arts called 'Good Friends', stamped in Memento 'Tuxedo Black'

We have a few boys' birthdays coming up shortly so at least I have one in hand now :)

I have a new follower - called Pixie, and it isn't me either (I have been known to accidentally follow meself on here)!! I don't think this Pixie has a blog but what a lovely surprise - we'll be taking over soon, you just wait and see.
