Thank you unmounted Henry!

Have you seen the builder wheels? There are lots of different designs that are intended for fixing into a roller handle either alone or with up to two other wheels. They're great fun, but sometimes I look at them and think how versatile they would be as a stamp - so I take them off the wheel, mount them onto foam mount (like this) and use them with an acrylic block. My longest acrylic block isn't quite long enough for them to completely fit on, but it doesn't seem to matter! Come and see what I did with Henry:

Henry is a wonderful linear argyle print! I've used my markers to colour the rubber before stamping and finished with a sentiment embellished with a little leaf.  Here's a close up of the pattern:

The inspiration to make today's card came from three different sources: I've used the colour swatch from this week's wonderful ColourQ challenge...

The One Layer Wednesday challenge is to be inspired by something from your kitchen and I chose this packaging:

And last but not least, I shall enter the card into the 'Make Your Mark' challenge at Addicted to Stamps where 'anything goes as long as markers are used on the creation'.  This is a brand new challenge site in blogland, so do pop over and give the ladies your support.

At dinner yesterday evening, there was a football discussion and my husband asked the boys if they knew how to put their fingers in their mouths and give one of those piercing whistles to let the ref know you disapprove of his decision! (I know, I try my best to teach them table manners but what chance do I have?!) There then followed a lively practice session during which my youngest son blew his nose. "Oh that'll tell the ref!" said my daughter, adding in her best Victorian gentleman's voice: "I blow my nose at you sir!"

Have a lovely weekend won't you, and I'll see you soon.

Hugs,
