Teddy Bo Tuesday

Good Morning all......I hope you're well today....this week the children in the schools surrounding Teddy Bo Towers finish up for their summer holidays but it also marks the end of my youngest child's time at Primary School......we had their 'Leaver's Do' last night and I'm not ashamed to say that the mascara was well and truly tested!!  So after the summer he will join his older sister at the High School and a new chapter in his life.   God I'm feeling old today!!!!! ;O)

With the summer holidays being round the corner for so many it seems to have impacted on our challenge entries too as there was only six of them, but they were all wonderful and you'll see our winners soon.

I have used TEDDYBEA_208 for my confetti box, she has been coloured with pencils and then layered on top of a frame which I cut on my Silhouette, I have added a feather and 3 roses cut from the same scrapbook paper. Bea's flowers have glaze on them and her hat has lots of stickles. 

I have also had a little play with Sammy Spaceman who is one of the FairyD releases this week. I have coloured him with Promarkers and layered him onto black card, where I have doodled the border and stars, which have pearls in the middle of them. The Moon is tin foil which I used my 2" punch to make and the grass is co-ordinations paper which I have torn.

Teddy Bo Tuesday

Gooood Morning everyone.....so glad to share this gorgeous Tuesday morning with you all.  May I take this time please to thank you for all the good wishes I have received since I last posted about my father's operation....I'm DELIGHTED to say that he is home (much earlier than we expected him to be) and is feeling fantastic (you'd NEVER guess he'd had major surgery less than two weeks ago)...I'm very fortunate to have such a positive role model in my father and I know that his attitude is what has increased his recovery rate...long may it continue...xxxxx

I have made a card to hold 4 tealights using TeddyBoBea_132, I hadn't tried this before but it was really easy to do!  I have used a scrapbook paper from Teresa Collins called Everyday moments. It's double sided and the inside is the yellow polka dots, so I have used that to mat and layer. I think I may have gone a little overboard with the buttons lol! I've coloured Teddy Bo and Bea in with Promarker.
