Sea. Sand and Seagulls!



What makes me happy (apart from stamping and blogging of course!Lol) is being on holidays at the beach -which is a bit of a problem because my DH would rather be on holidays in "the bush" - so we always have to try to find places for our holidays that have both -(that's when I can manage to get him to take a holiday.....but thats a different story...Lol!) Anyway the colours of CAS 88 reminded me of an Aussie summer at the beach- Tempting Turquoise/Kraft/Whisper white- the colours of sea,sand and seagulls...beautiful! So I really wanted to join in. The sketch I used is this weeks Mojo Monday (#153) and the stamp set I used is Circle Circus ....but notice it is looking a little bit more square than usual! This stamp always reminds me of bikinis and tropical shirts!! Only about 7 weeks to go until I really DO have a holiday at the beach!! My sister and our DH's are booked in for a week on the Gold Coast- hopefully my sister-(the one who recently has been in hospital) will still be able to come.
Hey! I'm interested...(apart from stamping/blogging)...
What makes YOU happy?

Definately stamping! Of course, but also family gatherings (and we have plenty of them) My husbands family is Italian, and for any excuse we get together and feast! I love it!

Great card, very light and bright!

Very cute! I love the fact that you took the circle stamps and made them square images.

A lovely simple,clean lines and crisp card .
What makes me happy ? When someone comes back the following week after our workshop and shows me a new card that they made using hints or tips that I have shared with them .

I love your card Robyn and those colours remind me of beaches here too. The things that don't make me happy is a much shorter list! But top of my happy list is spending time with my lovely family - they are fab.

Great card Robyn... so 'beachy'. My 'happy' list is very long but at the very top is our new little granddaughter!
