Sleepover

One of the good things about having a sleepover when you are 39 is that you are officially allowed to have a bit of booze.

I've got a couple of friends coming over tonight and so that none of us has to drive, we're having a girls' night in.  I've bought a copy of Bridesmaids in case we need a film and also have The Outsiders waiting in the wings *sigh*

And these are a couple of little gifts I've made for them!!


They're just a couple of the mini bottles of wine (ASDA 4 for £5!) with a picture taken from the original Wine Buffs CD.  I imported it into Word and added some Wordart accordingly.

BOTTOMS UP!

All about the boys and DT call

Well what a busy end to the Summer holidays.  If you've got your mojos back then head on over to Creative Craft Challenges and have a look at this fortnight's challenge - It's ALL ABOUT THE BOYS (isn't it always!).

There are a few DT projects for your delight and delectation and this time we were using images from our sponsors at Stamping Dragon.

Here are a couple I managed to fling together between polishing school shoes and refilling pencil cases (I had 13 pairs of shoes in various guises to get ready!!)

This is just a straightforward print-colour-stick!

Whereas I got marginally more technical with this one.  I printed the image twice, as large as it would go on A4 card.  I cut what was essentially the front part of the dragon off and scored it so that his tummy opened.  I coloured the rest and there you have it, a dragon with an opening tummy for a slightly different shaped card!

You will notice on the challenge blog that the DT projects are a little thin on the ground this time round.  Not only have we all been flitting about on holidays and whatnot, we have lost three of our ladies in quick succession.  This is sad.
However what is not sad is the fact that we now have a DT call open to try our best to fill the gaps!

Enter the challenge as normal via Mr Linky but if you want to apply for the team, add DT after your name.  We can then all descend on your blog to admire all your beautiful work and vote on our favourites.  The challenge and the DT call ends in two weeks.
There are more details over at CCC

Good luck with the challenge and if you decide to go for a place on the DT call, I wish you luck with that too 

You know you're my favourite, don't you ;)
