If only it was hot and sunny enough...

So our summer in the UK continues to be a damp, limp squib - still no sign of the sun or warmth that we should be getting!  Bleh.  But I managed to find my sunny mojo and for my Guest Designer card for the Crafting When We Can challenge that MilkCoffee is sponsoring...




Isn't she beautiful?  This is Tiffany Swimming and I just LOVE her teeny tiny waist and shiny hair!  I matched her up with Fancy Pants Beach Babes papers and a frilled pink gingham ribbon.

I hope you can join in the challenge - you'll be in for a chance to win gorgeous MilkCoffee digis!




I am entering my card into the following challenges:

  1. Gorgeous card Mary!
    We had one beautiful hot summer's day and I overdid the sunbathing (as one does after loads of cold days) and burnt my skin. So now I don't mind the rain so much because I wouldn't be able to enjoy the sunshine anyway.

  3. Hello Mary
    I remember when I used to look like that!!!!!, Many many years ago, but I was a blonde..... much more fun!
    Anyway enough nonsense, your card is delightful, and it always amazes me how you always bring sunshine into your cards when there is none around you. Have a great day.
