Pink Poinsettias and colourful stars

It's been a horrible old wet day today, I think it maybe stopped raining for 10 whole minutes!  Rubydoo has been having a super lazy Saturday and has hardly shifted off the sofa all day!   It's a dogs life.

Mr Mojo has been on the missing list for a while now, so I'm taking my inspiration from blogland and pinterest - I fell in love with Trina's card a while back so bought the same sentiment die and used it here with some shiny silver card. My poinsettia stamp is an oldie (from Art Gone Wild I think). I added some pink stickles to the flower centres and some white enamel dots.  Coudn't get it photographed right, it's very drab looking here.
This one's a specical request - I don't know anything about him other than he likes football, but I don't have any grown up football stamps so just went for a starry theme.

Great choice to go with a starry theme for a football guy-I will have to remmeber that one as I have no stamps for this kind of thing. The layout you choice is perfect and wow that is colourful! Thanks for joining Time Out

Fab cards Lynne, looks like Mr Mojo is back!! The pink poinsettias are so pretty and I love the die cut sentiment. Perfect for us at AYLI. Great colour choices on your 18th card and perfectly placed stars too xx

Your Christmas card is so pretty - not drab at all! And aren't teenage boys tough to make cards for? I really struggle with them, but your starry card is great.

Beautiful poinsettia card! Your second card is starry-sensational! Perfect for those hard-to-design-for-teenage-boys! He'll love it, as do I!

Very pretty card. Thank you for sharing with us at the C.R.A.F.T. Challenge. - Myrna DT P.S. Your little Ruby is so stinkin' cute. I bought a westie 3 years ago after seeing your little girl. My Swiffer (named after the cleaning mop) is qually adorable, and so full of personality.
