Everyone say aaaahhhhhh bless him - The Sugar Bowl Challenge 37-Marlenes sketch + Creative Inspiration challenge 65-One for the boys

Good morning everyone...well I had the best of intentions last night to get all my past due commenting done and was enjoying a good surf of your fab blogs, then I nodded off and woke up way past 11 so only got around to a few...sorry I will try my best to stay awake tonight I have what my Mum used to called eyelid bottom syndrome...my eyelids are attached to my butt and as soon as I sit down they close lol...well did you all go aaaaahhhhh bless him, isn't he just gorgeous...hes by Sugar Nellie and is called Worried and when I saw him on Funky Kits I just had to buy him (of course he wasn't bought alone in my basket lol) hes so sweet and I thought he would be brilliant on a child's get well card but used him for a friend to friend card this time, hes coloured with Distress inks and I used him for the superb sketch by Marlene over at the Sugar Bowl...the fabulous papers are by Graphic45, I don't know which ones they are as they were just pieces but I know I bought them from Crafters & Co...I finished with a circle stamp from a set I got from Simon Says Stamp and a selection of buttons...I'm entering this for the Creative Inspirations One for the Boys challenge too...I hope you like it...have a fantastic Fathers Day to all the Dads and Grandads out there
