Im Bored So You Get A Blog Post Today



It's really boring being home sick so I am filling in my time by blogging and catching up on my own blog-hopping. Lots of ideas make me want to scrap but not feeling up to it. I have had a layout sitting on my desk for weeks (no exaggeration). I just can't seem to get it 'just right'. Seems I have forgotten my 'just glue it down' philosophy but it is a design for someone else which will be on show at SENZ. Only one week to go till SENZ (I better be better by then!). Sadly I missed out on booking into the class I wanted to do but I will just have to console myself with shopping instead.
It was my Dad's birthday this month so here's the card he got. I meant to photograph the inside before I wrote the sentiment but I forgot. I am really happy with this card. I added clear OHT to the bottom of the trimmed card front so that it could still stand up on its own. The blue felt trim was a last minute addition and I was worried that it wouldn't work with the green but I think it turned out great! He liked it and that's the main thing.
I am submitting this card and post to the latest challenge at Southern Girls Challenge site:
The challenge was: anything goes! (Lucky for me, eh ;)

  1. Beautiful card and perfect for a man! I try and follow the 'just glue and go' rule, but most times it is just too hard! Hopefully you are well enough to get to SENZ. Might meet you there! Cheers,
