It's Passion time

Hello and good morning everyone!
Hope life treats you well and you have had a wonderful start of the week. Here we are recovering from a bunch of colds but that should pass as well I hope. Rather sooner than later would be good. :)

It's time for a new challenge over at Passion for Promarkers today, and guess what? Yepp! It's my turn to host and as I always are in deep need of cards for boys, I chose that as my theme: One for the boyz. And it really needs to show that it is for male. Nothing more, nothing less. With two boys in the age of birthday parties with friends, I always seen to be rushing around like mad trying to make up some birthday boys cards. I can have this theme for ten weeks and it still wouldn't be enough. LoL

Well, well time to talk about the card then. For a big change I have use a High Hope image. Wish that would happen a little more often than it does. But they are hard to get here in my little corner of the world. Anyway, this stamp used to day did actually Willy win when he took part in his first challenge ever over at the wonderful friendly people over at High Hope Challenges. They even offered him a guest designer spot. I will never forget that. So sweet!


Back to the card. Most of Willy's friends plays in the same soccer team and this little guy does as well. So a soccer card it was, once again. Have lost count of how many it has been by now. LoL He is of course coloured with my Letraset family and paired up with some lovely dp's fitting the theme from YouDo. A dynamo piece with the kids name and a big "7" to tell how old he is was put on. Two soccer ball-buttons that I cut down to make them flat was added to the mix. The inside was also decorated but that part is private and you don't get to see it! :)

Clearly Besotted Stamps is sponsoring us this week over at Passion for Promarkers. I am not really sure what 
the prize is but I will ad that to the post as soon as I have figured that out. I am still lost in that Yahoo group. 
When I managed to find my way around, the place gets a new look. Typical! LoL

Well, time to go and hopefully do something crafty. I really hope that you will come and play with us over at 
PFP this week. I am so looking forward to see what you come up with for this challenge. I need some boyz 
themed inspiration!

Love n hugs
Marie
