Here is what I did this year.... not really the ideal card for a teenage boy, but I thought it was so cute and fun and thought that it would be perfect for any age... Well he loved it :)
The fun image, which I coloured with my promarkers, is from Mo Manning, loveeely background paper is from Bearly-Mine and the striped one was a freebie in a magazine. Border punch is Martha Stewart, die-cut stars are die-Namics and then computer generated sentiment and three card candy to finish it off.
After I finished it, I realised that yet again for his last year's card, I used again an image from Mo Manning and papers from Bearly-Mine, but of course not the same ones. .. .
This is the sketch that I followed to do my card.
Some challenges now.
My Mum's Craft Shop 80 - THE FABBY SKETCH

This is where we went on Sunday - trekking with my colleagues in Comino, the little island that forms part of the Maltese Archipelago.
We also went in a cave
which was the one used in the film The Count of Monte Cristo.
Here I am with hubby at the Sta Marija Tower.
These two photos I took from up there.
Having a rest
And more photos
of the Blue Lagoon
It was such a nice sunny and warm day, people were still swimming. I so wished I had brought my costume too :(
Going back home to Malta.
