Longing for summer days...

 Oh how I long to be this little one sitting in the grass without a care in the world. Yes that is what summer is all about, and hopefully it comes soon. Finally the weather is turning around for us! I did some colouring with the distress inks today...tried to do some clouds in the background and must say that I wasn't all that successful!LOL But heck, it is all about the fun of trying! I also tried something very different for me. I tried tucking an easel card into two side panels here, so that when you close it up it all comes together for tucking into your envelople! I absolutely love this card, and I am sure I will do it again.


Have a wonderful day and I hope spring is arriving in your neck of the woods!

Here are a few challenges I am putting my card creation into:
