Popcorn 1st Day at school!!


Hiya Everyone,

I hope you are all well and have had a fab weekend. I've spent most of the weekend at my old house which is now thankfully all but finished. I must say I'll be sad in some ways to see it go as it looks really nice with all the new decor, carpets etc. Having said that, our new house is soooo much bigger and it will be amazing when we get chance to do what we want with it.

I have loads of DT work to do which I haven't even had chance to start but I'm hoping my mum will look after Tayla for a few hours tomorrow so I can make a start on it. My samples need to be ready for collection on wednesday as they are for a pick of the week on Create and Craft TV so I need to get a wriggle on.


Today I have a Popcorn bear card that I made a few weeks ago that I realised I haven't yet shared with you. The image is a rubber stamp from Crafters Companion and is from the kids collection range called school days and is available here. He is coloured in with my spectrum noir pens using the 6 packs only. This was my very first Popcorn with the spectrum noir pens and I was very pleased with how he turned out as I'm not the best colour-innerer (if that's a real word Lol). The papers are from my bits box as I'm trying really hard to use up my odds and ends before cutting into new papers and cards. The ruler twill is from a fabulous little online shop called the Fruit Pixie which is great for quirky and more unusual crafty bits - especially if you are into Tim Holtz and altered art - check it out!


I will enter this card into the following challenges:-

Thanks for looking!!!
