Canoeing in the Twilight!

Hello Everyone, beginning of another week, and guess what it's raining, for a change lol!
I hope you are all well, but if not I here's hoping that you will feel better soon.

Well what a weekend for sport.....our own Andy winning Wimbledon, Portugal winning the European Cup, an amazing mountain race for the Tour de France cyclists in massive hailstones, Lewis Hamilton winning a Silverstone, I was just beside myself with all the excitement!!!!! But sarcasm apart, it was good that Andy made us proud once again, as Iceland and Wales,  were out of the footy tournament, and of course Scotland didn't even get invited cos they're pants, it didn't really matter who won, don't do F1, sorry Ang, however I was wowed at the cycling, the stamina and endurance of these men is amazing and the size of the hailstones, well I've never seen anything like it and to be cycling up a mountain that is twice the height of Ben Nevis which is 4,500 ft. they are heroes in my book. Perhaps we will have a calmer household now, with just the TdeF still going on.


Thank you all so much for your lovely comments on my snowmen cards, I have to say that without a doubt I love making Christmas cards, and if they include snowmen so much the better.

Something a bit different today, it's a card made for our friend Ken who will be the big 60 soon and he is one of the "the boys" that Alistair goes away with canoeing, well he is the  main man as he has the tepee where they hold their evening soirees, arguing about politics, sharing the bevvy, playing their instruments and singing.....oh to be a fly on the wall, well maybe not,

Stampscapes images and a mixture of inks for the sky and water, I've scribbled some Sakura sparkle pen over the water to give a bit of a shimmer.  The chap who does the videos for these stamps uses glossy card, all I had was photo glossy card, and I don't think my inks blended as well as they should have, so maybe not the right kind of glossy.
However, it's my first attempt and I'm quite pleased, with the result.  This brand of stamps are fabulous for male cards, especially if it's images for the outdoor man.

Milo has his mum and dad at home this week as they are on holiday, so I have a break. I'm hoping they get into the behaviour training for him, he just about pulls you off your feet when out for a walk, he is getting so big and strong.

So off now to have a tour around your blogs and see what wonderful creations you've got today,
take care everyone and see you soon,

I would like to enter my card into;
