ECP - CH5 - Valentine for a Man

Evening ladies, have you wondered where I have been, along with the ECP challenge.....did you think we had done a runner..LOL...I have been moving my crafting goodies, from my Shed to the Kitchen, I had had a couple of falls again this week, so lost me confidence in going outside on my own, so yesterday Brian decided to get the kitchen carpeted and move things, so now I have a wee cosy niche, and no worries about falling....

This weeks project for ECP was delayed too, due to technical diffuculties, but we are back with a fabulous challenge and a great new Sponsor, with some fab goodies for our winner off this challenge.  We want you to do a "Valentine for a Man"  now we know that these peskie man cards are a pain, but the 14th of February will be here before you know it...so here is your chance to get it done and dusted.....Jane Doodles, is going to kindly donate printable and some of her home-made fimo buttons, to the winner, now I don't know if you have seen Jane's fabulous designs, if you have you know what a great prize you are getting here, but if not, please pop over and check out her amazing designs...I kept my card quite simple, and used a free image from the super talented Terry.   I tried to do a grafitti, style, design on the backing card, hope it works, and used some gems, glossy accents and scrap paper from my stash.  Hope you like girls.

Hi Avril Ann,
Glad you've given up the shed. Much safer inside. Great card. I love the colours and the image is sweet.
Didn't go to Costco - bad day on Friday. Hope to go on Wednesday - is that any good to you? If not don't worry it's more important that you look after yourself.
Hugs,

Sorry to hear you've taken a tumble Avril, hope you're ok, and glad to hear your tucked up in the warmth of the house. I sew in my shed and know how cold it can be so worried about you. Your card is great, simple and trendy.
