Cute Card Thursday ~ School's Out!


This week on Cute Card  Thursday the theme is
School's Out!
School has been out for a month here so I decided to do a summer birthday card, this is perfect for a friend of my daughter's who loves to come and swim in our pool.


This sweet image is Belle's and Whistles by Elisabeth Bell. 
The pretty paper is My Minds Eye '29th Street'
The fabulous ticket stamp is from Whimsy Stamps designed by Ann Vento aka Raindrop Echo Designs called 'Ticket Stamps' they are so versatile, I love them! 
The leaf punch is by Leone-Em and the flowers and pearls are Prima.  I distressed everything with distress inks 'tea dye' and 'antique linen' including the flowers.  


I saw this quote on a T-shirt somewhere and it has stuck in my mind, love it!
The Saturday challenge this week is 'Water',
One stop Craft Challenge is 'distressing'
I hope everyone celebrating July 4th had an amazing weekend, we certainly did!

Gorgeous gorgeous card Debs!! Love all the distressing and these tickets sentiments are great! And I am only a teeny bit jealous that you have your very own pool! Not quite the same as Scotland eh???
