Hurrah for the Weekend

Hi Nomad Friends.  Another week over.  Have you got an action packed weekend planned??  I am really hoping to get out in the garden but they are forecasting cold and wet, wet, wet.  A bit like today.  Big sigh.  Bunnies and chickens really don't like this weather.  Little bunnies sit and gaze wistfully from the hutch.  It's such a drag having to dry all that fur.  Again.  Must get a picture for you.  They are just so cute.

I was looking to join the challenge over at BasicGrey Challenges where they are looking for a masculine theme.  Always a challenge.   I also had my eye on a couple of sites with a CAS theme so I have parred down my man card to the bare essentials, in this case barbeque......


I stamped this happy little BBQ guy from Panduro's Pojkar set on Basis Grey Curio Cabriole cur-3035.  I used the plainer side of this paper but it's got some lovely highlights.  Then I cut him out and mounted him on a base card which has fibers in it.  No name but it gives a nice mottled effect.  Probably recycled clothes again.  ROTFL.  The sentiment is a Crafty Individuals stamp 'Dream a Little Dream'.  When I grow up I want to be........

Hope you have a chance to BBQ this weekend.  Ours would have more chance as a boat for the rabbits.  Laugh.  Thanks for dropping by.  Your comments are little rays of sunshine on a grey day.

    He looks rather wistful but if the weather is bad where you are then it is not surprising. I love that Kraft base card and use it a lot. Really hope you do not need a boat for your bunnies! Hugs, Anne x

    Great card, Gail, appropriately masculine, as, at last in the U.S., the BBQ is the man's kitchen! Love the look on that little guy's face!

    Knitting his brows for the weather not turning out just right. Reminds me of all the BB's we have had in the garage because of the weather. Such a cute image and hence a cute card.

    Thanks you for joining us at Artful Times. Hugs, Neet xx (I have been away, sorry I am so late)
