Summertime!

Good morning everyone. I'm here today with out latest challenge at the Polkadoodles Blog. And that challenge is Summertime. Well here in the UK for the last two days it really has been summertime, in my garden it reached 45 degrees! As a rule I would love that and be out crafting in the garden, but we are currently making over our garden and working in that heat isn't much fun.

Anyhow, onto my challenge card for this week.

For this card I have used a flower from the new Tropical Paradise Flamingo clear stamp set, and a sentiment from the new Oceania clear stamp set. I've coloured the image with Pickled Raspberry and Pine Needles distress inks. I've then cloured over the whole background with the Pickled Raspberry ink and added the usual squiggly black line with a fine liner.
