School holidays that is! I can’t believe two weeks have flown by so fast! We have had an absolutely fantastic time as a family and spent lots of time together and catching up with some great friends. But it’s time to get ready to get back into the routine that is a school term and that was kicked off yesterday when Jackson had a birthday party to attend with one of his “big” mates from school!
This friend of Jackson’s is quiet literally head and shoulders taller then Jackson (which really isn’t hard!) but they just love to play together and they look so cute together.
Anywho I digress! We have had the invite for a while and it was a skull one so Jackson wanted the packaging to match! Mmmm I think I may have created a monster here!!
Of course I wasn’t sure which way to go as I’m not a huge fan of scary skulls for littlies so with a bit of inspiration from here, this is what I came up with….
Here is a close up of the card! I’m pretty happy with how it turned out and Jackson was over the moon with the finished results!!
Sorry the photo’s aren’t to great but as usual I was meant to be there by the time I was finishing these up yesterday afternoon and I was late as per usual! But Jackson was over the moon with the results!
I’ve had the Just Jawing set for a little while but have barely used it but it would seem my kids are getting to the age that skulls are all the rage! Scary hey!
Righto best run I’m going to try my hand at being organised and getting my things prepared for Technique class tomorrow night today!
Enjoy your Sunday

Hey Manda,
I used the 5/16″ brad that were in the last mini catalogue on the card. On the bag I just used the 1/4″ hole punch!

I love this. I never thought I’d say that about this stamp set but I love it. Everything works so well together.
Great Job!
