Walking the dog


A second Birthday card to inspire you to join in with the LOTV Facebook challenge of Birthdays. I had a look through my stamped images and came across this one which I haven't used before. Coloured with Copics and I used a cloud template with chalk for the sky. The papers are Lily Bee Autumn Spice, LOTV sentiment, Marianne birds on a wire die and Whimsy fence die I used vintage photo DI on the diecuts.

Although the concert last night was in Lowestoft which is only about 50 minutes drive away we and our friends stayed at a Premier Inn last night so that we could go to Gorleston just up the coast for breakfast and a beach walk. A night away just makes a nice change too.  I am hoping the weather will be a bit warmer than it has been but I have plenty of warm clothing in the car in case. We will be home later today.

Love the colours Marianne, that little guy and his dog are beautifully coloured and tone in so well with the papers.

You were just around the corner from us then!! We did the walk on Saturday with friends from Bungay. We went to the Toby for lunch. We had what they call a Roast Sandwich!! It was more like a small roast dinner with bread!! Very odd and all for £4.19 each!! Great card and love the colours. The papers are brilliant. Hugs, Carol S.xx
