Triple Challenge ~ OCCC - Humour ~ Friday Sketchers ~ Cute Card Thursday - Pink


I seem to have been out of the loop for a while and haven't posted any challenge cards for ages it seems. I had a short trip to France and had root canal work on my return, but that's not really any excuse!
Sadly the colours on this picture don't reflect the colours in reality, but maybe you can get the idea, I do apologise for the poor image quality.
Three challenges in one card again... couldn't manage any more I'm afraid.
I must say that I empathise with the sentiment on this card ENTIRELY!
If I can get a better picture of this card, I'll edit it later.
Your comments would be welcome, as ever!

Sketch Saturday Challenge #12


Another little Maggie image from Bootiful Stampz.
I think she's being a little optimistic wearing a swimsuit with the kind of summer we've been having... we can but live in hopes.
Canon Scrapbook papers, prima flower.
We got a new car today, Phil is busy putting all his little bits and bobs into it... it will look very much like our old car soon! Then he will have to get his head around finding out how to operate the Sat Nav!
What excitement!
