Anything goes

Hello and good evening! A tiny bit late as I thought I had this post prepared. I had not, but here I am now and ready to tell you about my card and our "anything goes" challenge over at the Paper Shelter.  Got back home late last night but here I am again. :)


It's time for our summer break challenge so you get an easy challenge with a maximum of three entries per crafter and one of them have to have any TPS product on it. Nice and easy because by now I am pretty sure everyone own at least one of these fabby digital images. Right? As always we have our $30 gift voucher up for grabs if you use a TPS image and are picked as a winner by Mr Random. Three digis of your choice is yours if you are the winner and are playing with another brand. Both parts of our big TPS team is taking part in this challenge so there is plenty of inspiration for you. The challenge is on going for two weeks as well so plenty of time to enter. However, as it is our holiday break there will be no comments this challenge. I pretty sure you are fine with us having a little break to spend with our family and friends?

That is just what I have done and why I am late posting this. I have spent a week in Alcudia, Mallorca with my family and that was so nice. Maybe I am not the biggest fan of Port de Alcudia, but I loved the heat once I got used to it and it was great to have no musts to hang over me. Lots of e-books have gotten read both by me and the kids. Swimming bothe in the sean and the pool which the kids liked more, the wasn't too impressed by the salty water.

We vistied a village in the mountains called Valldemossa where Chopin lived for a winter with his misstress, and the people living there now have made that happening their livelihood. This was in the 1800 something so they are really working an old happening. LoL But it was nice to see and I enjoyed the trip that also took us to a village by the sea called Soller. For the visit in the mountain the guide said:

-Bring a sweater it can be cold said the guide. Since when is 29 degrees celsius cold? Here in Kalmar we're happy if the temperature reaches 20 degrees celsius this summer. Oh, it was a good week and now I only have a few more days off then it's time to go back to my work training for one more month. There is also a surgery to get throw next week for my youngest kid so it was nice to be able to relax a bit before that as well.


Ok then, my card. I have used one of the most smashing images in my mind from this year's collection from the Paper Shelter. It's called The Rebel and it's so fun to colour, that I really urge you to get the image and start colouring right away. It makes the perfect card for a teen ager. I printed the image fairly big this time and kept my design very simple. I found some old Magnolia designer papers in my stash sorting it out while I am fixing my craft room. Still a tiny bit to go, all the bits and bobs you don't know where to put you know? Anyway, clean and simple card with a pink designer paper to my black and blue image. Nuts? Well, I don't think so as there is tiny pink details in the image. I have use many layers on this card and the image is raised up on foam dots as well, just to add a little more interest to the card even if it's a simple one. Lots of time put into the colouring instead. Some black pearls from Bunny Zoe's is the only thing used for decorations together with all the layers of card stock in white, black and pink.

Anyway, I hope you like it and come and play with us over at the Paper Shelter where you find plenty of more inspiration from the rest of the design team.

Love n hugs
Marie
