Birthday Boy Potting shed

I know I will never catch up so I will send you all hugs and do the best I can. I think the cold wind has pinched my concentration.  Computer is in a reasonable state with just the occasional hiccup, he is getting on a bit now. I managed to drag myself to be shorn yesterday and to the supermarket today - more importantly for me it keeps me driving. 
I cannot believe this is the first image I have stamped this year, it was going to be all mono but I found some bits of paper I wanted to use so that plan went by the by, also I mounted my topped wonky but didn't realise until it was too late.

Paper and card - card blank is a 7x5,

  2. Nothing wrong with wonky Flora, all adds to the interest and makes the card individual. Very imaginative how you have added the cat.

  13. Great male card Flora. All men like sheds don't they. Ours just keeps the lawnmower out of the rain and a lot of rubbish. But my friend's hubby actually works in his!

  21. In my opinion, if people want a perfectly straight and even card, they should go and buy one from the store! The charm of the handmade ones is that they're handmade, a bit wonky and even maybe, but at least they get a card that is not like any other card and it's much more personal:)
