All Aboard the Jelly Train

Boo-hiss who stole the sunshine? Being as it feels a bit chilly this morning I did a spot of crafting whilst the boys watched MegaMind (again!). I made this card a while back when I went to Jules' training:


I loved it and found a tutorial HERE to make a matching train using the Top Note die:

 
Isn't it fun? It uses the Top Note die and Perfect Polka Dots embossing folder along with Fox and Friends stamps set. So why have I called it the jelly train?


Because each carriage is supplying a mini treat bag filled with blue jelly beans that's why! you can see here I've used the decorative label punch for the doors and a variety of circle punches for the wheels. Want to see the train and card together?


Back tomorrow

Stamping on fabric

Right, this is my first attempt at stamping on fabric. I didn't have a practice run first which maybe I should have done! Anyway, hopefully I'll get better ready for next attempt.

So I took one of Blake's T-shirts and stamped on it using the Varsity Alphabet stamp set and Fox and Friends. I had intended Blake to model my finished piece of work but he's nodded off after a busy morning and no way am I waking a sleeping bubba! Plus I haven't heat set the stamping yet so maybe that's just as well...























I haven't used Stampin' Up! inks for this as I wanted something that would stay after washing, dribbling and food stains etc so I've used special fabric ink pads. I stamped the letters first and then masked them off with stamped images cut out on post it notes and then stamped Fox and Friends images around his name.

I took Blake to the Doctors this morning to have it confirmed that he is lactose intolerant so from Monday he's on some special lactose free milk and a lactose free diet for 4-6 weeks. That's not going to be much fun for him, but if it helps him to feel better, than it has to be worth it. Being as my monkey is asleep, here's a photo of him being kissed by his big bro Zac - a rare moment if ever there was one.....

Have a great weekend,
