Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge Teenage Boys

This is my DT card for Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge, This weeks challenge has been chosen by the talented Gina, "teenage Boys" a bit of a toughie for me, as I'm hopeless at boys/male cards, but luckily for me I just purchased this stamp from the greeting farm, I have coloured him with distress inks, which you can purchase from Wendy at Secret Crafter, Wendy is also offering free postage, so fill your boots. Papers were RAK, from the very kind Tracy (thanks hun)x, apologies for not getting around everyone, as you know we were decorating our bedroom after 2 years lol, and then my mam stayed a few days, then I have work, well Hubby said he would sort out my craft room, and promised me, I won't be without it and he would leave a space I could craft in, well my craftroom is an absolute tip, he has moved things and dumped them anyway lol, and it's still not done. So I'm not sure when I will be back to normal, and to make is worse, I just wanted to play with all my goodies I received for my birthday. So I think I will have to find a space on the kitchen table have a great weekend hugs Jill xx

This is my entry for the Papertake weekly, a fabby sketch by the talented Dawny, I will be using this sketch again, I hope it's ok I put my sentiment in a different place as it wouldn't fit under the image, (I understand if I can't be entered because of this x) again this is part of the commison for the Grandma who is 90.

This is my entry for Allsorts Challenge, which is no stamped images or sentiments! I was quite happy with this even though it had no stamped image, and then hubby looked at it and said aww it just looks like one of those shop bought one's where they stick on the embellishments lol, mmm I don't like it that much now lol.
