Never tyre............

Hello all, as good as the weekend....yeah!! Time to relax & unwind, well whether that's wishful thinking I don't know but I'm going to try my best..hehe.

As you can see I've been playing again, we have a lil Edwin here which Jools very kindly passed onto me. Apologies, as Jools was sent this in a Rak & I can't remember who she said sent it, but will ask her when she's back from her jollies & give thanks.
Again I really enjoyed colouring this fellow in with my watercolour pencils. The paper set is another I got from Prima Hybrid....'About a boy'. I've got to say I love these pp's, the colours & patterns & distressed effect which I've added to ever so slightly.........lol.
I chose to use the car paper then wondered what to put Edwin on......................Tyres!! So, I doodled a couple of tyres & coloured them in, then came up with the sentiment, which made me chuckle when I thought of it. (sad I know.....lol) For the sentiment I've used Doodlebug simply sweet rub-ons, which was part of Vicki's candy the other week. Then, cut a couple of stars from one of the papers to give a little balance.



I've tried to match Edwins clothes to the colours in the papers & to make him look a lil mucky....hehe, & I'm really pleased with how he's turned out.

Again, with the tyres, I've tried to make them look dirty. When I was doodling the tyres my eldest was bewildered as to why I would want to draw "tyres". But, this is the same son that not to long back said "mom, when are you going to stop making cards with little drawings on & do something a bit more grown up?!...." I did laugh.

Thanks for dropping by & I hope you all enjoy your bank holiday weekend, see you soon.

This is brill Kerry, love your colouring and those tyres are fantastic. Lovely sentiment too. I have to agree with Sharon, it's lovely to see your cards, but also great to hear the 'story' behind them, especially when your sons come out with such funny phrases...lol!!!. Hope your having a good bank holiday too. xx vicki xx
