Born to Ride

Morning crafters.

It's a chilly day here and I am fighting the urge to put the heating on!

Instead, I am going to fire up the oven 

and cook a big batch of curry and some apple dumplings :-)

Here's a quick card I made for my BIL.

He regularly takes a trip around Europe, 

with my SIL on the back of the bike -

so I thought this snoopy image would be perfect.

I followed the great sketch over at Seize the Sketch (just flipped it).

Snoopy is coloured with Copics and (although you can't really see in the photos) 

he is popped up on thin, foam pads.

I really wanted to stamp the sentiment right on the paper, 

but my card was almost finished by that stage and I was too chicken. 

So I added it on a little scrap of paper instead ;-)

Mr Kiss is celebrating his birthday this week.
The girls are coming up on Friday - and, if we are allowed back in, 
we will be visiting the local hostelry to partake of some refreshment - eg: shots all round!

Here's the birthday card I made him - no prizes for guessing his favourite TV show.

I made the text on my computer, using the font Carnevelee Freakshow . 
I'm not sure if it's exactly the same as the one used in the TV series, 
but it looks good to me.

I made a little scene with my new cityscape die, cut out 'Snoopy and his Sidekick' and stuck them to the 'road' with foam pads.
Snoopy is coloured with Copics and I added a few touches of glossy accents to him and the bike.
