Hello one and all. I am the host at Allsorts this time and I chose
Summer Days as the optional theme.
I've gone back to my childhood with my card today. Summer fetes in the village with stalls, tug of war and an ice cream van selling the soft whippy ice cream with a flake!!
It's been a long time since I used a crafting CD so I had a lot of fun looking through Crafters Companion Halcyon Days that was full of inspiration. I did this prit cut and stick frame card. The bunting was made using a Magnolia die and the With Love is a leftover from the "real" Halcyon Days papercrafting kit.
I hope that I have inspired you to revisit your childhood summer days or more recent trips to the beach or other favourite summer places.
See you soon xx
A fun summery creation Sarah. My DiL's Granddad used to have a fleet of Mr Whippys and one turned up at the wedding, free ice creams all round!! :)
ReplyDeleteSo pretty, I love the banners. My childhood summers mainly involved roller skates, bicycles and soggy trips to the Isle of Wight.
