Now we have unpacked all laundry and the rest of the bags are empty. Tomorrow starts a new chapter in W*s life. He will soon start school and is a bit nervous about it. Just like I am to be honest, I'm doing my best not to show him. It will be fine while we get into the routines again.
Now for my card. It's mid week and it's time for a new challenge over at the Paper Shelter. This week we have Going round and round as our theme, so please do come and join us.
I have use the cute little chap from the "happy times" set. This time it was time for the little man resting and that is just what I would like to do today. He is coloured with copics! Yes I know, a chocking experience for us all, but I do have those as well and since my Letraset family is a bit too wet to colour with for my printer at this time, these markers came to my rescue. Never wrong to have a spare filling in for you. The designer papers are from Echo Park's Strips, and dots and lines or what ever they are called. But I do love them. They are bright and cheerful and very clean in their design. I have to get a few more of those pads that's for sure. :) Some die cutting clouds and a flower with a button is my only decoration together with a sentiment saying "just dropping by" in Swedish. Oh, and a little birdie found it's way on the card too, couldn't help myself. :)
Smiles,
Marie
