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!

 

My Stampbook Saturday for There She Goes

Happy Saturday everyone!  This is my last day as this week's There She Goes featured Trendsetter and today I had to do a scrapbook layout!  Okay, so here goes - my very first ever scrapbook page!  I must say that I like my little "canvases" on cards - I found the huge space on the scrapbook page really hard to fill up!  Of course, I had to do a layout with my two fur balls, Poppy and Lulu, and wanted to show them in their usual place, lying by my desk and snuggling each other!

I'm not sure if I like my first 8 x 8 page that much, but I do love the stamps I used!  I has to use one of my all time favourite stamps called Puppy Love by illustrator Torico.  I used Kristin Cronin-Barrow Pumpkins and Spice papers and My Favorite Things fishtail banners.  I am entering this card into the Simon Says anything goes challenge.

Well I need a lot more scrapbooking practice but not a bad start!  Thanks for joining me on my week as the featured There She Goes Trendsetter!
