CRAFTY CALENDAR - AUGUST - SUMMER FUN

Hi there my crafty fellow blogsters!  This is the start of a new challenge over at the Crafty Calendar blog and our theme this month is 'Summer Fun'!  I know that summer this year hasn't been that great but imagination is a wonderful thing eh?  

Ingredients

7" x 7" White card blank - Anna Marie Designs
Digi Image - 'Ladybug Sunbonnet' at Bugaboo Stamps
CREA-lies Dies - Square Double Stitch Crea-Nest-Lies XXL
CREA-lies Dies - Oval Double Stitch Crea-Nest-Lies XXL
Tonic Dies - Elegant Columns Strip Die Set
Flexmarkers
Pearls and papers from ancient stash
Sentiment from internet and then Minc'd

We have been sponsored this month by the amazing Bugaboo Stamps and the winner is going to receive 7 digi stamps as their prize - Jodie really is a star!!

So come on and join in our challenge - remember though, in order to win our prizes you must be a follower of the blog, once we have reached 1000 followers there's a bloomin' wonderful prize waiting to be won!!  

Well that's enough from me for now although I might just post a picture below of Terry - he's the Titan Trigger fish that we became friendly with on holiday and it was only when we Googled him that we found out that in the breeding season they would often (err most likely) attack anyone going near their little 'nests' so to speak!  Now this fish was bigger than a dinner plate and had the teeth of a two year old child - well they do nibble on coral so I guess they need 'em!

Oh and I was standing just over to the side of him when the maestro took this picture underwater.  As you can see from the second pic he is near the surface, I just wish there was something else in there that could have shown you how big he was ..... my hand for instance!!!

I can't help but chuckle when I see this one of Terry - he had a couple of pals with him but they were just a little bit smaller and not quite so brazenly posing.

Big hugs to you all and I hope those of you who are feeling under the weather start to feel a bit brighter soon - you know who you are!!!
