theres no cobwebs left here...

Good morning everyone...phew the cobwebs were defo swept away here the wind was about 80 miles an hour and our fences were waving like grass...I had to chase my bin around the garden in the teaming rain in my bare feet when the wind just picked it up like a rag doll and threw it of course the contents came out too...now theres a picture for you me soaking wet covered in rubbish and smelling of it too and with muddy bare feet...oooohhhhh wheres the paparazzi when you need them lol...well lets hope today is a little better and not as windy...so I thought my card for today should be a touch of summer especially when I saw this gorgeous little Nesto in Summer image from Mo's digital pencil, how cute is he with his bucket on his head...I coloured him with distress inks and how perfect are these papers from the Kaisercraft Seaside 6x6 paper pad from Bunny Zoe's crafts...they were just meant to be together dont you think...I cut out a few flowers and a ball from the same pad to add to the card and the life is a beach sentiment is from it too...well I spent a huge amount of time in my craftroom yesterday and this is all I managed but hopefully today will be better...my love Daughter and her partner came down and cooked for me...yummy lasagna...the sketch is from Pear Tree Designs challenge and Im also entering this for the Do it with Digis challenge, Allsorts challenge and Stamp Something challenge too...Im of to my craft room again for a more productive session today (well hopefully)...whatever your up to today have a good one everyone

    WOW Mina, He's so fabulous, wonderful colours and the perfect sentiment:0) Hope you have lots of fun creating today, perhaps it won't be quite as windy LOL
    I see you have the perfect hibiscus stamp, it couldn't match better, or did you do the negative version on the paper as well? :0) xxx

    Maybe you should have borrowed his bucket when you went running through your backyard during a windy rain storm! Now that is a picture I would like to have seen.

    Love the colors you chose to color him with. It takes the DP colors and brightens them perfectly.

    Beautiful coloring, Mina! Your card is so cute! Your style really encouraged me to try Mo's digis! But my coloring is in its infancy :( I enjoy it, anyway!

    Thanks for the inspiration and I hope you can read the email I sent you!

    You color the most beautiful skin of anyone! Your skin tones always look just so realistic it is hard to believe it is not a photo! Darling card!

    I don't know what I enjoy more your little stories or your cards. We've had a lot of tornadoes here in the States, but we did miss the Rapture.
    Love this little guy on his tippy toes. Great card, great coloring as always.
