A couple of cards and a zillion midge bites.........

I'm back home from Eskdale pods where I've had a little break with the boys and my friends. The kids have had a wonderful time (and so have the mums) running around and generally having a brilliant adventure. The mums have been able to chill out while the kids played safely and relax. We were plagued by the dreaded midgies in the evening though, sprays and candles were out in force! I am one of those people who get eaten alive by the little blighters, the kids have counted the bites on my lower legs and we reached 47 before giving up! They are driving me nuts, I was up through the night taking more anti-histamines and rubbing Anthisan into them.


I did make a couple of cards before I went, this one is for the Dutch Dare Card Challenges  who have a great sketch by Tamara to follow. The Colours fit in with the Colour Create challenge of Ivory, Duck egg blue and one other colour, I've gone with a sagey green.

The cute image is from LOTV and has been coloured with distress inks, and then die cut with a spellbinders labels set. The buttons and ribbon are SU, the border has been punch with a Martha Stewart punch. The charm is from ebay.

Again I've gone with an easel card, think I'm addicted. The border punch is from Martha Stewart and the sentiment is from Craftwork Cards.

Thanks for dropping by, hope you enjoy.
