Fun & games!

I hope you enjoyed our Ladybug Crafts Ink blog hop yesterday - wasn't the new release gorgeous?!  The hop is on until next Monday so if you haven't joined in yet, there's still plenty of time! You can buy the gorgeous stamp sets at the special price of £5.50 here until next Monday when they will go back to their normal price.

Okay, so my card today is from one of the recent Swings and Slides 2 release by Pollycrafts called Skills...

 
 

I made this card for this week's Pollycrafts challenge of fun and games - and you can't get much more fun than this litte fella! I matched him up with papers from the Echo Park Little Boy collection (got mine from Quixotic Paperie here) and the sentiments are from Ladybug Crafts Ink called Sentimental Numbers (here).

I am entering this card also into this month's Bunny Zoe's challenge for the boys.

That's it from me today - have a lovely day!


Paper/cardstock: Bazzill cardstock, Echo Park Little Boy
Stamps: Pollycrafts Swings and Slides 2 skills, Ladybug Crafts Ink Sentimental Numbers
Mediums: Copics, Sakura white gel pen
Accents: buttons from stash
Tools: Nestabilitie dies
