Good morning, we're just back from holiday so I'm a little late with this post- the new challenge at Crafty Catz started yesterday but there's still plenty of time to join in. The optional theme for this week, chosen by our lovely Bridget, is 'DIES'
Our fabulous sponsor this time is
The image I have used is Selfie Santa, which I coloured with Copics and fussy cut (that little twiggy arm was tricky!) . The merry Christmas die is Memory box which I've cut from a square of DP (The Works) and placed over an embossed square of white cardstock.
We had a wonderful holiday-great location and accommodation, just 20 minutes walk to the beach, amazing weather, so warm and sunny but thankfully not too hot for Marvin, who I'm happy to say made up for his disappointing beach day last week- he was in the sea -every day- at least once, sometimes twice and he found a little stream to play in too, not to mention the muddy puddles in the lane after the thunderstorm we had one night! He's such a
waterbaby.

In the sea at last! - In such a hurry to get in he forgot to wear his trunks!
Happy, tired boy drying off in the sun.
