1st Pick

Hi,

Well Spring looks like it's finally showing it's head, thank goodness.  I'm hoping it say's nice for tomorrow as i will be walking round the senior schools playing field with H for sport relief, the rest of the school will be walking over the downs, but i think they decided they wanted to keep reception all in one place !!!

I would also like to thank the lovely Wendy  for nominating me for a fabby Award, thanks hun.

I forgot when my OH's brother in laws birthday was, and was reminded it's next week, hence the male card today !!!, he's more of a rugby man, but the colours didn't suit the image i had, so went for another sport related theme instead !! The papers are the trusty Doodlebug again, i so love the versatility of the papers, be it male or female.

The Card and Challenges are :

Totally Papercrafts - where Challenge No: 108 is 'Male Card'

Crafty Catz - where Challenge No: 124 is 'Red, White and Blue'
