Ooh la La ......

Bonjour my blogging buddies, today sees the start of a new challenge at Ooh La La and the theme is......All At Sea, now I need you to use your imagination  because....... well ......The tides out, but had the tide been in, the boat would have been at seaif you get my drift. The image and papers are from the Boys to Men Cd, from Ooh La La Creations. I made this card for my hubbys brothers 60th birthday and he has a boat very similar to this......well the smaller one, and the tide was out when I saw it so this image was perfect for the card.



I have had a lovely weekend my poor credit card took abit of a pounding, the show was very busy on the Saturday and very hot which did spoil the overall day a smidge but I found a couple of stands I'd not seen before that specialised in vintage designs and bits n bobs, and I also got to watch a demo on the Stamp Man stand using Frantage which I just lurrrrrrvvvve, so I just had to get some powders, glitter and flakes to have a play with and I got a gorgeous snowflake from the very kind lady demoing.......perfect for vintage cards, trouble is I want to have a play now and I've got to go to work.....drat.
Yesterday we went shopping with my daughter and son to Birmingham and my poor credit card got another pounding as we were buying baby and maternity things for my daugher, luckily my son is cheap to take shopping just knickers and socks......lol
