Kicking Back - Cards For Men

Morning all.  Well, that's two mice caught!  They are the sweetest little things, not house mice - they look more like wood or field mice, and so cute.  I think they are coming into the garage for shelter, having been tempted this close by the guinea pig food next door as the girls have the hutch up against our garage wall.  I don't want to have to ask them to move it, but if this continues I might have to mention it delicately ........

Anyhoo, today is the last day of my extended weekend so it is back to work for me tomorrow.  Sigh.

CARDS FOR MEN have a theme of Kicking Back - what men do to relax.  Well, apart from a pint in the pub I guess most of them have a hobby of some sort!


Ingredients for this card:
Stamped Image  Nellie Snellen
Medium  Distress Inks (ReInkers)
Papers  Basic Grey What's Up
Sentiment  Cut from a free sheet of NitWits papers

Treasure Hunts at the weekend used to be so common around here, but you don't see them happening quite so often now, must be the price of petrol!

We're off to The Range in a bit as I need to restock on Bristol Board but who knows what other goodies might find their way home too....

Hugs, Sxx
