What?

I know, three days in a row. For now that has to be a record. LoL I have cut down a bit on my card crafting. There is so many other things to do as well, but most of all, the time by the computer gives a bit too much pain as it is and so does Unfortunately my card crafting as well. However it is way to much fun to give it up and when I know my limit and stick to it, it all works out ok. 

We have a new challenge up for you over at Passion For Promarkers this week (still can't believe I belong to the team). This weeks theme is "Create a scene i.e. cloud background etc". I have made a fairly simple card as my neck was causing me so much trouble this time. Could hardly do my coloring but I got there in the end. Think I have to spend a few days or so when I feel better preparing a few images for upcoming challenges. Might be a good idea. 



Once again I have used a Tilda image, and this one is from the new collection Sea Breeze 2013. She "belongs" to the club kit that was sent out a few weeks ago. Even if I hardly ever uses the Magnolia images I make sure to get all the club kits, resulting in a never ending stash of unused images. I try to use at least a few of them now. LoL The new Miss Tilda is used together with an old back ground stamp from another summer kit but I don't recall what it was called. Of course they are both colored with my dear old Letraset family. The designer papers are from the Paradise beach paper pad once again. Love the colours in this pad. The only decorations is some pearls and a die cut border. 


Our sponsor this week is the Digi Stamp Boutique and they are offering a prize of 6 digi images for one lucky winner. How great isn't that?

Well lovely people, by the time you read this I am taking a swim in the ocean and hopefully the sun is shining as well. Hubby won't be home tonight so I want the kids really tired so the go to sleep early. Fat chance of that when they know the soccer gals are playing the group final tonight against Italy. Heja Sverige!

Love n hugs
Marie
