LIM, Wheels, Percy & a Labour of Love!

Before I show you the card let me explain the very long title. The LIM challenge for today is 'Wheels' and the ladies are asking us for anything that moves on wheels, now it just so happens to be my youngest Grandson's birthday in a couple of weeks and he is mad on trains, particularly Thomas & co. I have already made my card but I needed to make one for my Mum to give him and this is the result - Percy - a little out of perspective but I'm sure he won't complain! All that remains is the 'labour of love'  and that is exactly what it was as it took me ages to make!! Enough waffling, here is the card!




Supplies used were a Thomas the Tank Engine book for inspiration, lots of different punches, scissor snipping, glueing and sticking - using SU products, some retired!

As my LIM post is so late I have re-scheduled my 'Simples Sunday' post for the afternoon so, if you have come here expecting to see that, then do pop back later.
