Waiting for rain...

Good morning all (although never sure when people read these posts lol!) - and another glorious morning in the north of England! It feels as though we're finally having a summer this year, as last year it seemed to pass us by!  It's such a nice feeling to get up in the morning and open all doors and windows - and then rapidly take all my hay fever medication lol!  Every year I keep hoping I've grown out of it - but at nearly the half century point (ugh!) I'm starting to give up hope of that happening. So I've resigned myself to the fact that I'll continue to love spring and summer, I'll carry on growing plants and flowers - but enjoy them from behind watering eyes and in between sneezes!  Usually by about mid July the pollen starts to ease off but as we had such a late spring this year I'm not sure that'll be happening. Hey ho. But I'm so pleased it's a nice start for our youngest's school holidays - he finished school yesterday for the summer and is off later to play tennis with a mate (much better than sat on his computer!).  And everything that isn't nailed down is getting thrown into the washer for a freshen up too!

Just wanted to share a card with you today that I made for my lovely step-daughter Lucy whose birthday was last Friday

The sweet image is from Mo's Digital Pencil called 'Waiting for rain' (although she might have a bit of wait with our weather at the moment lol!). I've coloured her with copics 

The backing papers are from LOTV - and then I got well and truly carried away with the flowers from WOC, so definitely not CAS in style!  I've added a die cut meadow leaf from Poppystamps, LaLaLand heart banner die cut and sentiment (&die) from Whimsy.  The lace is from stash.

and the inside decorated to match

Hope you like it - fortunately Lucy did which is the main thing! 

Well I'm off to sort more laundry out lol!  Enjoy your day whatever you have planned. 

Back soon,

Kim x
