Enjoying the summer

So as I'm writing this, I'm enjoying my deck and pool with my 3 boys!  They are spending a lot of their energy as I write ;))))  Got to love summer time!  We are celebrating St-Jean Baptiste in Quebec today.  It's our holiday.  So that means since it's falling on a Sunday that I will be off on Monday!!!!  YAY!  I don't  know what the weather will be like... but I hope nice enough that my hubby and daughter who are back tonight will get to enjoy the pool as well!

Last week.... I had created a card especially for the Digi Haven challenge... and I realized when I went to look at the winners that I had forgotten to link my card up!  How bad is that... So this time I better make sure that I linked up.

This morning I created this card because I thought of the fun I'll be having now ;)  Summer time was my inspiration for this card.

My digi is from Hambo stamps it's a freebie and it's called Cool Cat.  I think he is a pretty cool cat ;)))

I used a Large scalloped rectangle to cut out the blue rectangle.  I used some flip flops from Jolee boutique stickers.  And another sticker from the dollar store with a great saying.  The Happy was written out with letters that my dad picked up at a garage sale.  Isn't  he sweeeet ;)  Picking up stuff for me.  The ribbon was from a basket that I received some time ago.  And the paper is from a little pack of 6x6 called beach bum from Fancy pants design.  I picked it up at Stamp and create.  I just loooooved the waves ;)

Here's a closer look at my digi:

I followed the wonderful sketch at  Willow Sketchie:



I'm entering this card at the following challenges:
  1. Digihaven - Summer/Beach/Surf use of freebie image
  2. Willow sketchie challenge - sketch and bold and bright (I think I did both ;) )
  3. Aud sentiments challenge - Bingo (happy, ribbon, die cut)
  4. 2 sisters challenge blog - Anything goes
  5. Robyns fetish challenge - no flowers... that was a hard one lol (I had to cover up the flowers on the flip flop of the digi  I blinged it up ;) )
  6. Shopping our stash - stickers (I have the flip flops and the saying)
  7. Deep ocean challenge - Welcome summer

So that's it!  Now I'm going to continue enjoying the pool... prepare my blog post and schedule them because tomorrow I'll be sleeping YAY when they go off...   I may create more tonight... we will see and definetively be back tomorrow for more posting.  2 for my wonderful DT teams Tammy's Scraping Corner and Digi Darlas.  Just sooooo happy to be part of wonderful teams.  And on Tuesday it will be Jackson's digital!

Big hello to Desire who is now part of my followers ;)  So glad to be part of your team as well.
