What am I doing today

Well folks....the weather is absolutely glorious today but the forecast ain't looking good for the rest of the week.....so I was finding it hard to be in crafty mood but so wanted to get some challenge cards done........and then I got a frantic call this morning from a very good friend.....CAN YOU DO ME A CARD......well I ain't doing commission cards no more.....but hey this lady was such a good customer....I didn't have the heart to say NO.......when do you need it  for..... I asked....wait for it...LUNCHTIME....well that didn't half kick the old mojo into touch and boy was this one a challenge......the brief was...MALE...and already I am groaning......no worries I thought GOLF OR FOOTBALL......NO.....LOVES BLACK AND WHITE.....SNAZZY DRESSER.....LOVES BLING AND IS GAY......yikes....a mega challenge then.    And you know I always say that I work better under pressure....no time to faff around...just get crafting.....and here we go.......made in half an hour.

Black Cardstock
Papers: Pink Petticoat

Well off to have my lunchtime walk with "The Budster"........hair cut at 2pm and then now that the mojo is working on all cylinders......some challenge cards me thinks......catch up with you all later.
