So with that in mind our theme over at Cardmadfairy's digi days is

......Summertime

-

I chose summertime colours for my easel card along with a butterfly and flowers design paper

but feel free to interpret the summertime theme as you wish as long as you use a digi image.

The papers are from one of the latest kate knight freebie packs and of course the fabulous inage is one of the Cardmadfairy's and priced at 99p is a bargain lol

I used a chipboard sentiment out of my stash no idea where it came from but ive had it a while lol

Crikey these fridays dont half come round fast lol, its time for our fortnightly challenge over at Cardmadfairy's digi days and this time we are looking for............

APRIL SHOWERS

so take that as you will and get creating lol, i chose to get my bind it all out as it hasnt seen the light of day for over 6 whole months maybe more, as typically its been freezing here this last week i thought id go with one of jenni's aka cardmadfairy's images that was well covered up and ready for anything, but of course it wouldnt be complete without the usual british hopes of sun so i printed out the sentiment and stuck it on there,

seeing as ive been in a greeny/aqua colour mood of late i thought why not continue lol, so the colours are white and aqua/green.

The rest of the cmfdd Dt have created some stunning pieces for you too and would be fab if you could pop by and have a look, also you may want to find out who the lucky top 3 and winner was from our last theme,
