Crushin' Chloe

Hello all.

So Ben has gone back to Sheffield for the next 2 weeks to finish off lose ends at the University - he is taking part in a sports test designed by other students(possibly for their lectures). He will be back home at the end of the month until he begins lectures again at the beginning of September. James has finished all his GCSE exmas so now come the long wait for the results (the end of August). He'll start A-levels in September. Phoebe is still at school for another 5 weeks but she's not happy at the moment. In September she'll move into Class 2 and it's unsettling her. She goes to a small village school with aprox. 70-80 children so classes are joined together. She'll have to get used to a new classroom and new teacher. Big changes when you're only 6.

My card for today is for a friend who has spend A LOT of time, money and nerves on getting her driver's license (not telling how long tho). I doubt she will travel far as she is definately not a confident driver. But she has deserved this ....



......... I have used Crushin' Chloe from Sparkle Creations Rubber Stamps as she's just perfer. There are not many stamps featuring card which are perfect for girls but this is on. And I loved making this card from the colouring to the sketch (maybe cos I know how happy my friend will be).

Materials used: Crushin' Chloe available HERE - Papermania cardstock - a mix of paper scraps - Glitter glue - hand doodling

Bicycle Chloe

Good afternoon.

Hope everyone in the UK is enjoying this long bank holiday and the jubilee celebrations. Not sure when it all kicks off but will definately watch on TV. The British Royal family knows how to throw a party (remember last years wedding?!).

The weather here in my little corner isn't too good - very grey and I have a knitted sweater on. Hope the sun is back again soon.

Tomorrow James is going up to his brother in Sheffield for a few days. I am so happy as they have spent the past 15 years fighting and now they a chilling together hehe. Ben won't be home until the end of June as he has some loose ends to tie up. So for the next few days it'll only be me and my princess here. They kids have a week's holiday and then it's back again for 6 weeks before the 6 week summer holiday.

Here is my card for the day .....



....... I got this stamp a few week's ago and thought I would use it. I love riding a bike so this is a fun image for me. Simple layout and will enter this into the Sparkle Creation's challenge.

Materials used: Bicycle Chloe - card stock - Jillibean Soup papers - Prima flower - Unity sentiment.

Thank you for dropping by and have a great day. Hugs, Mette
