Dude!!

Morning All!

Another Monday means another challenge over at Pollycraft and today my gorgeous teamie Faye has chosen the theme...

Boys, Boys, Boys

Sounds good huh?!  Nice and simples which is what we like, lol!  I've played with Casper Silvermist for the first time for my card, here he is...



A close up of Casper 'Too Cool for School'...



Inside of card...



And a side view...



He's a pretty cool dude isn't he!  This week we're sponsored by...


Letraset who are offering a 5 pack of Promarkers to our lucky winner  :o))  Wanna play along too?...see you over at Pollycraft!

Well I'm definitely hoping to have some play time this week, lol!  I feel so guilty sitting in my craft room though, I feel like I have to do ALL the chores first and then job hunt for about 5 hours before I'm allowed to play, it's like being in limbo!!  My Dad keeps telling me to stop beating myself up and just enjoy the freedom, he says 'you can't find a job that doesn't exist no matter how much time you spend looking for it' and he's so right!  So I am going to stop beating myself up (if I say it out loud maybe I'll actually do it!!), still do my chores (so as not to feel too guilty and keep Hubby happy, but not ALL of them in one day!) and try and relax a little and make some cards - that's the plan anyway!!  We've got so much going on here at the moment that I should really be enjoying the quiet time while I can, fingers crossed it'll all change soon!!  Hope you all have good weeks and enjoy yourselves whatever you have planned  :o))

Much love,

What a FAB boy card Cazza! Love this image and great layout.

Your dad is right ... try and take a step back from the job hunting. I'm sure the perfect job will come along when you least expect it but until then relax and enjoy a little bit of 'me time'.
