Hear all about it...

Well, the heat wave is still with us, and not much rain in sight.  I won't complain though, as some parts of the world are having horrendous floods right now.  It does make you wonder what this summer has in store.


So, now for a card to bring a smile to your face, with an image from Dr Digi's House of Stamps....Mr Speaker (birthday). I do so like to do my part, in reminding friends and family that they are not getting any younger.  It's only fair...as many are younger than me!

I've coloured the image with markers and a bit of pencil, cutting it out with a Spellbinders die and the 'out of the box technique'.  You will see quite a bit of doodling and edging, using a fine black marker.

The DP has been cut using the Spellbinders Classic Petal die, and the letters for 'Old Guy'  make use of a small alphabet die.

As this is my DT project for Dr Digi, I would also like to let you know that there is a special promotion going on Facebook.  Be sure to check it out for your chance to win!
