Good Morning Blogger's,
I was so excited to receive a couple of sets and this little stamp from Lili Of The Valley in the UK on Friday. Couldn't wait to get this one inked up....... how cute is he? I love the cap.
I've stamped him onto X-Press It Blending Card and coloured him with Copic markers. The embellishment on the right is a fishing lure that I pinched acquired from DH tackle box. I had to get the hook off naturally, but left some fishing line on.

How was your week end? Did you do anything special? We had Spring weather again so I managed to do a bit in the garden. Walshie cut the grass which was good...... He still hasn't got 100% strength in his left hand though so has to be a bit careful, we've had a couple of broken cups where he forgets !! He can now sleep laying down instead of in a chair though the ribs are still sore, but that's a huge improvement so he's getting better.
OK that's it from me ........ Till next time.......x
This card is soooo SWEET! Love your coloring, your stitching and the real fishing piece!
