Go Bananas!

First of all, I'd like to say a huge thank you to all you lovely people - all your messages, e-mails and cards mean so much to me at this difficult time.

I'm using Lewis's laptop at the moment and with everything going on at the moment, haven't been able to load all my programmes onto it, so thought I would share this card which I made early last week.

The images are all from High Hopes, including the sentiment, and have been coloured with Promarkers. DP is from K & Co., and c.s. is from my stash, as were the ribbon and brads. Used the SU slot punch to attach the ribbon. Camilla the Gorilla and the banana have been raised with foam pads. Was quite pleased with the finished result.

Hope to be able to salvage a couple of other things from my old computer, which I made last week.

Last of the Whipper Snappers (for the moment!!)

Morning all......is it morning already?!! Had a very hectic night.....got woken up at 1.30 am with the sound of vomit bouncing off the landing carpet!!
