Rachel, Little Angel - Digi Bells DT Post

 
Hi

For my Digi Bells DT Post this time I decided to use Rachel, Little Angel.   I made a cute little notebook.

This notebook is made using a couple of beer mats for the front and back, and my Cinch Binding Tool.
I coloured Rachel using my Copic Markers.

As this notebook is really quite small, I kept the embellishments quite simple using a couple of buttons and a flower.

Thanks for stopping by today.

Hope you like it.

Erin At Crufts

Hi Everyone

Simon here with another instalment of the crazy situations that I call 'Life'.

I know that Crufts is supposed to be a dog show for dog lovers, but Erin the cat seemed fascinated by the dog agility on the television last night. She sat, watched all of the action and then let her opinions be known!

The video below shows her watching in amazement as the 'silly' dogs perform like ... well, performing dogs!!!

Have a look and see what you think. Am I the only sane and sensible level headed person around here?!?

I hope that you enjoyed this little moment of madness.

Keep smiling ! That way, nobody is ever sure what you are thinking !?!

Simon.
