Sweet Dreams


 Hello, I'm a little late in the day with my DT card for this week's challenge at Crafty Catz- I'm just back from holiday, meant to  schedule it before I went but ran out of time. 

Our Sponsor for this week is Conie Fong

The optional twist is For a Baby.

I made a circular tent fold card- easy to do, basically it's a circular card with the fold at the top and an aperture cut from the centre, I like to put the sentiment inside. I use a small piece of folded card at the base to hold the aperture open .. 


 The cute image, Goodnight Benji ,courtesy of our lovely sponsor is coloured with markers and fussy cut, I've added a few punched stars. 

The sentiment is stamped and embossed onto blue cardstock using white embossing powder and inserted into the aperture.

We had a wonderful week in Yorkshire, excellent accommodation, glorious weather and too much food!  Yorkshire is such a beautiful part of the country and we had a relaxing week, enjoying the countryside and visits to the beach with Marvin- he gets so excited when he smells and sees the sea, as soon as he's off the lead he goes like a rocket -and straight in! I only took my phone- no camera so not a great photo but here he is enjoying playing in the sea with his precious ball- doggy heaven!


Thanks for visiting, have a lovely weekend- it's going to be a hot one here!

    Fab idea, love the shape and it's perfectly adorable! Marvin looks like he is having a ball. I could have done with that nice cool water last week, now we have enough falling out of the sky lol.
