Finally got my Tomatillos and first lot of tomatoes out on the allotment today - after a busy weekend visiting OH's parents. I am now utterly knackered and wish I had tomorrow off work lol.
I managed to get a picture of my fuzzy little mousey today when I was cleaning him out also - here he is!
For my crafting challenge this week I made a Father's Day card - with the main idea being to enter in into the Ribbon Weaving technique at FB Crafting techniques.
I weaved a black polka dot ribbon and a silver ribbon together to create a background strip and mounted this onto silver mirri card, mounted onto black patterned paper. I then added a yellow motorbike topper, a winners cup and a #1 Dad speech bubble to finish the card off. I wanted the ribbon weaving to be the focalpoint of the card.
This is being entered into the following challenges:
Male themed cards - artistic inspirations #95; craft your passion #217; ooh la la #158; papertake weekly challenge; cute card thursday; glitternsparkle; aud sentiments #108; country view

Just goes to show you can use ribbon on things for men! Great project. Thanks for joining our challenge at Crafty Ribbons.
