Bugaboo Summer Holiday

Hello, and welcome!

Oh, my goodness.....flash floods all over the Northwest of England (that's right here!), and the news broadcasts are full of the terrible damage that is happening......and there is still an awful lot more to come.......and we are in the middle of our so-called summer!!

It's heartbreaking to see so many people affected........poor things.

Hubby and I are blessed to live on high ground, so the worst we have is waterlogged gardens and very large (and deep!) puddles.

Let's get to today's creation...........It's time for another challenge at 

Card Crafter's Circle 

and this week we want to see what you can create with our lovely (if somewhat ironic, here in the UK) theme of

SUMMER HOLIDAY 

We have a very popular sponsor

 

and they are offering our randomly chosen winner 7 fabulous images!

I love Bugaboo.....they have something for everyone, and every occasion....woohoo!

My card is a little tongue-in-cheek, keeping in mind that many Brits choose to "holiday" at home, and this card has already been given to my lovely hubby, for our anniversary......heehee.....


Unfortunately, my camera has decided it has been given far too much work to do, lately, so is givin' me a hard time.....I've sent it to its room to think about its behaviour...haaa.......but it means I could take only one photo......might be a blessing in disguise, given my lack of photography skills.....lol......
I used some K&Co. background paper, edged with black ink, then a lovely, cute frame sticker (Sue Dreamer), layered onto white card and outlined in black again.
I have a ikkle giggle, every time I see this image...blaaahhhhh.......all coloured up with Promarkers, and a small piece of cute, cute "love" ribbon (part of a win at Crafty Ribbons), used as a tiny banner, on the side.
I used another of the stickers from Sue Dreamer to place a rub-on sentiment, mounted onto more white card, and outlined....then I put on me Superhero cloak (the one that gives me courage) and hand scribbled "but" and "anyway" before and after the sentiment.....don't hold my awful handwriting scribble against me...ha!

I'd love to see what you all come up with for this one.....especially if you live in Merry Oldye England.....haaaa!

hugs,
