This has been such a busy week, with very little "me time" or "stamp time". Yesterday I was cleaning and busy getting ready for dinner guests but it was such a dismal rainy day, I didn't mind puttering about and cooking.
I made one of my favourite meals of Mississippi Pot Roast with Yorkshire Pudding, yellow mashed potatoes, mixed veggies and a Caesar Salad. We finished off the meal with a tart lemon meringue pie for dessert. What a treat and especially on a rainy day!
Here's My Card:
By moving the card stock strips over to the opposite side of the sketch I was able to have the fox in my focal point riding his motorbike in the right direction. The fox was cut from one of my favourite designer papers called Zoo Crew. What fun! To add some interest I drew the little road squiggles and puffs of exhaust with a black marker, and I glued on the little daisy embellishments.
