Summer days

Morning and hello! What a great birthday I had the other day! No crafting involved, just dining and park golfing. (Like golf but in a mini way, but not miniatyr golf. You have all players on the court at the same time in this version. I got beaten but had great fun, and then followed by a day in bed but it was so worth it. :) Yesterday I even had the energy to craft for real for the first time in very long, and really enjoying it.

Today we have a new fun theme for you over at Passion for Promarkers. The theme is set to summer days. And grewing up sailing when I was a kid summer is still sea and sand for me. So I picked this image from the Paper Shelter to illustrate my summer days. It's called Pretty little sailor. The first thing my granddad who was a sailor and carpenter thought me when I was really young was to keep the boat's rope in order and always had us tidy them up like I have on my card. Some things just sick with you, don't they?


As always playing a long with us over at PFP you need to use Letraset markers. I have used a bunch of a special kit that I won from them many years ago. I love the colours and will be really sad when they run out of order. But for now they are working fine. The dp's are from Maja Design "Skärgårdsliv" I think the pad is called. Instead of the normal red, blue and white have I used pink just for fun. A ton of dies is also used mostly from Magnolia Doo Hickey. The little birdies are from Joanna Sheen.


Sponsoring our challenge this week is Digi Stamp Boutique which is offering a gift voucher worth £10. Such great prize don't you think?

Ok then, I think I will get back to the crafting room today and try to make one or two more cards if my body allow it. A little trip to the sea so the kids can swim in the sea will we hopefully manage as well.

Enjoy the sunshine and some crafting time!

Love n hugs
Marie
