Good morning, hope you've all had a good week, I'm back from my holiday a little earlier than planned- we drove back yesterday instead of today. Can't say it was the best holiday I've ever had- it was great to have a change of scene, the weather was amazing- so warm and sunny but I got fed up with having no hot water for baths and showers! It packed up on Monday- owner came out and fixed it- still no hot water- came again on Tuesday- still no hot water - came again Wednesday...you get the picture. I am NOT a fan of cold showers and do not enjoy having to constantly phone and complain when I want to be relaxing and enjoying myself. There were several other problems with the property too- definitely won't be booking that one again! Had such a lovely long soak in the bath last night- pure bliss!
Anyway back to the card- this week at Crafty Catz we are sponsored by the amazing
the theme for the team to use is 'make it sporty' chosen by our lovely Ginny, who is hosting this week.
As always the theme is optional- anything goes at Crafty Catz!
My card features Hole in One Hal, he's coloured u with Copics and fussy cut to stand smugly surveying the golf course. Background is created with die cuts, stencilled clouds, stamped birds and I made a flag to finish.
Thanks for stopping by and a huge thank you to all of you who left comments while I was away- much appreciated!
Chris

Ach what a shame about your holiday Chris but totally understand. Sounds more stressful than enjoyable!! Loving your card today and the folds works beautifully with your fun golfer.
ReplyDeleteOh I am so sorry that your holiday didn't work out, even on a hot summers night (what are those) I couldn't take a cold shower, or offer my throat to the wolf with red roses, do you get it!?
