Cool dude

 Morning all.  Over at Make My Monday we would like 'Embossing -dry or heat'.  It's got to be dry embossing for me as heat embossing is very hit and miss when I do it.  To ring the changes a bit I decided to emboss some patterned paper.  I used an old Tim Holtz embossing folder and pieced the squares back together before adding my 'cool dude' in the middle.  Isn't he adorable.  

I distressed my squares a bit and added a sentiment.  The image is from a set of clipart on Etsy by Orson Artistry.

Thanks for reading.

You don't have to be mad to work here...we'll train you!

 Morning all.  Two posts in one day! Go Me!

We are on the 15th of the month so we have a new challenge over at Sparkles Monthly.  Our new theme is 'Trios'.  3 of anything on your project please.  My other half needed a leaving card for a colleague so I did this for him.

Not sure what's going off with my picture.  The central panel didn't look that wonky on the original.  I was looking for some manic, stressed out critters for the three images and found some lovely fun images on Orson Artistry (Etsy). I also added three sets of three gems.  Apparently, I nailed the brief and the other half was thrilled with it.

Thanks for reading.
