All about the boy

Hello and a very happy Saturday to you all

This is my first post for sometime. At Christmas I decided I would be a better blogger in 2016 and try and regain my initial enthusiasm for blogging but it is funny how life throws obstacles in your way to prevent you from keeping your promises even to yourself. Two weeks ago my hubby suffered a seizure and was rushed into hospital. As you can imagine crafting and blogging have not been my first priority over the last 2 weeks. Luckily my hubby is now ok and hopefully life will get back to normal again now.

Today sees the start of a new challenge at Fantasy Stampers. The challenge this fortnight is .........

All about the boy.

The design team would love to see all your male projects but please remember we are a stamping challenge and the main focus of your project must be hand stamped. (No digi images please).

This is my card for the challenge -
