I had to work yesterday afternoon to let my colleague take her Mum to a hospital appointment. Not a problem she would do Friday afternoon for me. But....and there's always a but isn't there! Someone coming along our back road this morning decided to stop her car when she saw me with the dogs. Big mistake!!! I was dragged across the road and then when she moved off again somehow I ended up on the ground and the dogs were off. I should explain that the dogs are 2 very large 10 month old Labrador dogs - they weigh near enough 40kg each. If she hadn't been stupid enough to stop the dogs would have just watched the car go past, ok they would have pulled a bit but I would have been able to hold onto them. I've never lost hold of their leads before and it wasn't nice. So now I've got a round bit of skin off one pinkie, a grazed arm and a very sore foot and ankle. I managed to hang out my washing, hoover, dust and clean bathrooms as usual but when I went to take them out at lunchtime I could hardly walk. I'm a lot better now but still a bit sore. Hope I can drive tomorrow to work and then to a crop.
But enough about my problems. The theme this week is ideal for me as I needed a card for my 16 year old nephew. One of the problems is trying to remember what card you made last year! And Lachlan is the youngest of my niece's 3 boys. I decided to use one of the Mikey digi images from Charmed Cards and Crafts. I couldn't concentrate very well so I decided to use a coloured image.
I used :-
Image :- Mikey digi image from Charmed Cards & Crafts.
DP :- Basic Grey Oliver.
Card Candi & Sentiment :- Craftwork Cards.
Ribbon from stash.

ReplyDeleteKat, really sorry to hear you're feeling a bit battered and bruised. Not nice, and you are probably suffering from a bit of shock too. Hope you're soon on the mend. Your card is great. I'l need to check out those digi images as they look perfect for teenage boys.
ReplyDeleteI hope you are not so sore today, hope you are feeling better soon. A great card, love the design and colours. Thanks for taking part in my challenge at Crafty Creations this week. Good Luck! Hugs Christine x
ReplyDeleteHi Kat
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for your lovely comment on my blog - so appreciated! I love this card you've made male cards are so hard to do....
Sorry to read about the accident with the lady in car and your dogs! I know that labs are very strong not because I've got one but when I go to dog training a lady there has one and sometimes we swap dogs to train - and boy oh boy they are SOOOOOO strong - nearly pulls my arm out of my socket if I'm not careful!
Anyway enough rambling!
Take care
