What to do, what to do...

... ooh no the pressure, since my last post a few have asked what I am going to sew but I have to admit to no bloomin idea lol. Still looking for fabric - and I have lots of things bookmarked - but it has to be easy. So once I have found my fabric I'll narrow down my list of makes and see what I can come up with I'll keep you posted. ( I must admit to needing to hem a pair of hubbys work trousers that I keep hiding until I've bought some wondaweb - aah - he'll never know )

Right onto a card make I wont waffle on too much about this as my eldest has had a last minute party invite so off to make a card for a soon to be 11 year old.

This one is for Ians uncle who bought a caravan late last year and plans to make full use of it this summer (hope the sun shines soon!):



I have used brown card stock and mattered a teal (?) coloured bazzill which I have distressed the edges. The image is a jolly nation one that I got for 99p at Hobbycraft, coloured with pro-markers, ribbon, sentiment and candy from stash.

I would like to enter this into:

Crafty Catz: For the men
Frosted Designs Fabulous Friday Challenge: No patterned paper.

Thanks for looking xx
