Mojo Monday 103

Here's a card I have made for a friend who has just has a baby, a little later on in life -42 - I wish her well, she is much braver than me!
I have used the sketch from this weeks Mojo Monday.
Papers used are from Pink Petticoat and the stamp is from House Mouse, flower is Prima sprayed with glitter!

Night all

Feeling Sentimental!

Tomorrow my "baby" starts 6th Form College!
Where did the time go?
At 16 he now towers over me and exhibits all the usual male teenage traits - his use of the English language is now very basic, conversations consist of a grunt here and a ugh there and his bedroom, otherwise known as the "Cave", scares me, and I have to admit there are days when I haven't the courage to venture in.

Where did that sweet boy go, who used to come for a cuddle and like nothing more than snuggling in my bed? Now, I am nothing but an embarrassment to him, he walks at least 6ft in front of me if we go anywhere and I am now know as - "Mother, you're a freak"!
LOL ( if I'm honest I do work at this title - I love a good wind up!)

He would be mortified if he knew I had written this, but then that's part of my freaky nature! I have a reputation to live up to after all!
Anyhow, Jake if you ever read this I want you to know how much I love you and that I am proud of you!
Just make sure you work hard at college - no slacking off now! And, yes you know I'll make sure that you don't!

"What part of cats dont like water dont you understand".......

I had coloured in this image yesterday - I love these cat stamps!
And was not knowing what to do with it, until I came across this challenge - Crafty Cardmakers which had a great sketch that just suited it!

Well, then I couldn't find a backing paper in the right colour - so what does one do?
Yup - make your own!

All stamps are from Design House C'attitude plate, rectangular paper is from BG, Granola.
