Hello lovely peeps,
I am back home after a lovely few days away. The main purpose of the trip was to visit Monkey World in Dorset. I have been watching the 'Monkey Life' series on TV for a while now and always wanted to go.
I loved it there, - maybe not the best place if you don't like Primates, but I found them amazing, especially as these are all rescued, some of them from appalling conditions and dreadful cruelty. It is wonderful to see them lead some semblance of normal primate life.
Before we went, Simon celebrated a birthday, this is the card I did for him - he is a very keen angler and likes very simple cards.
I decided to go for a 'strip' which fitted the bill well.
All done in browns, blue and greys.
The stamps are all from clarity apart from the 'Happy Birthday' which is from 'Stampin' up'
Hope you like it and thanks for visiting xx
Welcome to my blog and thanks for visiting! Here you will mostly find stuff about cards - making cards is what I do when I'm not doing my 'proper job'. You are welcome to use any ideas you like, I would appreciate a mention if you copy any cards on here Thank you x There will be stuff about cats (I currently have 4!) most of whom have turned up on the doorstep and moved in!! Coffee is what I will be drinking as I update the blog! I hope you enjoy your visit
Beautiful card Janet, subtle, restful and stunning. Just to clarify I mean subtle in a good way!
