Here Comes Summer

Hi, I have another card today.. but this is going to be a very quickie post now as hubby is taking us out for dinner to celebrate my birthday :) yum ..

So this card I made for the GDT Call at Mo Manning that is going on at the moment. The challenge this week is Here Comes Summer, so I used this cute Summer Baby stamp for my card.

Coloured with my promarkers, dotted papers from my Me and My Big Ideas paperpack ... not sure from where I got the striped one though. The 'Fun in the Sun' was a freebie from Pink Cat Studio and the other one I did myself on the computer. ... hope you like it... fingers crossed :)
 

Before I go I wanted to show you what dropped in my letterbox today...

The Cardmaking and Papercraft Magazine Issue 92 
... and you turn to page 79.. lookie who is there :)) ........ME and Sandra .... so so exciting... woo hoo 


I'm entering my card in these challenges

Others to be updated as soon as I come back..

I'm off now...............

Thank you for looking

Big hugs

    Love this card and the summery colours. We had warm enough weather over Easter and I had my grandaughters in the paddling pool in the garden. It's been much colder since though.
