I wish I could do this...

I'm still not sure where our UK summer is and sure isn't warm enough to do this yet...


Come on sunshine, come on warmth - please visit us for goodness sakes!   Okay, so back to the card!  We are showcasing some summery inspiration over at MilkCoffee Stamps and the theme is summer so for my DT make I used Madeline: Summer Time - she's so beautiful and I love that hat!  I used Kristin Cronin-Barrow Pumpkins and Spice papers and created the sand with some left over cork.

 Check out more summery inspiration over at the blog here and I'll catch you later on my blog rounds.  Thanks for visiting!
