It's almost over... the Olympics that is! Do you know, I'm really going to miss it. It's been a fabulous fortnight of sport and I have loved every minute of what I have watched (and I have to be honest, there isn't a lot that I haven't watched).
As I write Team GB has just won it's 29th Gold Medal thanks to Anthony Joshua in the Boxing. Absolutely fabulous. And if the vision of this Olympics was to inspire a future generation then I think I can say they've certainly inspired our boys! Scott, in particular, just wants to do everything and who are we to stand in his way.
Now, I had thought about doing a card like this for the start of the Olympics but it somehow seems better to be doing it now after a fabulous performance by Team GB.
Challenges I'd like to enter:
Cupcake Craft - Bunting
Ladybug Crafts Ink - Summer Fun
Craft Your Days Away - Olympic Dreams
Saturday Challenge - Gold, Silver or Bronze (she's wearing a Gold Medal!)
Stamps
Olympics - Saturated Canary coloured with Promarkers
Bunting Stamp from Party This Way set, Stampin Up
Letters - Penny Black
Cardstock/Paper - Stampin Up
Embellishments - Ribbon from stash (think it might have come from a chocolate medal!), pearls from stash
Thanks for dropping by today.
Hugs.

What beautiful colouring - I more than a little jealous as I just can't seem to get these images right. This is a gorgeous card. I'm definitely missing the Games and let's be honest, it's not that often that we get to say, as a nation, that we did something really well. Maybe instead of being the "Legacy" director we should put Seb Coe in charge of education or the NHS ... a little bit of politics there xx
Gorgeous image and beautifully colored. Really cute card.
Thanks for joining us at Craft Your Days Away.
