The challenge on Polkadoodles this week is
WINGS
now we were supposed to use stamping as well, but my polkadoodle stamps are in the USA, and as I am here in the UK, bit of a problem. So I ignored that bit.
I was asked to make a 70th birthday card for a male, so here is Mr Twitty, from the Paper Boutique CD, in A4 size. I typed the sentiment onto a tag, which the CD allows you to do quickly and easily. The specs were printed onto vellum
here's his backside!
Then I turned to the Back to Nature CD and printed out this wonderful peacock paper. I cut a few of the peacock feather tips out and pop dotted them on. Sprinkled a lot of glamour dust around, inked the edges a bit, and there you go, done in a flash
Now on to the BBTB2 blog hop, the name out of the hat (well random thingy, but I forgot to take a photo) is
DEBBY4000

Congratulations Debby, email me with your address, and I will get your goodies in the mail
We are going to Ikea tomorrow, some of you may remember our last trip there. I certainly do. I think I may park Mike in front of a plate of meatballs and collect him later. I have made a list. Did I ever tell you how much I love lists? My daughter has inherited the list gene, that's my girl. I buy her these magnetic list things you put on your fridge, she USES them. I have been known to make lists of lists I have to make. Oh yes, I frequently put something on a list that I have already done, just for the satisfaction of putting that tick by it, and when my list gets too untidy, I make a new one. A touch of the OCD appearing here I think..............worrying isn't it?

I put up magnets on my fridge too and keep attaching lists to them; I have a holiday list notebook which details out what goes into each suitcase for DH, DS and me; I have grocery and vegetable shopping lists in another handmade paper notepad and plenty more!! :-)
