Seems a Little Sketchy #70 with Delicious Doodles

This fortnight we are sponsored at Seems a Little Sketchy by Delicious Doodles, who are offering 4 Digi Images to the winner. I love the image of the beach huts, I just this spring read a book where the setting was in part a beach town and a beach hut played a part in the plot... so I immediately came to think of that book and the summery feel it gave me when I was still eagerly awaiting the summer heat we are currently experiencing in Finland. 

I'm participating in the following challenges: 
Papertake Weekly (It's a jolly holiday - Summer holiday in my card)
Crafty Girls (AG), 
Creative Inspirations (Here comes Summer),
TTCRD (AG),
Suzy Bee (AG),

P*skishaaste-koira

P*skarteluhaasteessa teemana on Eläimet/Lemmikit, ja ainakin nuorin tyttäreni tykkäsi lopputuloksesta koska hän halusi (saunanraikkaana) esitellä lopputuloksen. Tässä kokeilin ekaa kertaa tehdä myös takaosa kortista, mutta se kyllä olisi tarvinnut jotain jujua, jäi vähän tylsäksi... en vaan keksinnyt mikä se olisi voinut olla. P*skis

Pretty in Pink

Yesterday I got some harsher than usual feedback from my 4 year old daughter on the cards I've made; they should have only the best colors E*V*E*R (meaning pink and purple), so I made this. However, the fact that I used some green (look closely enough and you'll see a tiny leaf) and brown (the hair), ensured a FAILed grade ;)

I'm participating in: Sketch Saturday, Catch the Bug (AG), Crafty catz (Stars and/or stripes), Cute Card Thursday (Reach for the Stars), Fan-tastic Tuesday (AG), Glitter'n'Sparkle (Make it Sparkle), Send a Smile 4 Kids (bright Colors), Moving along with the times (Girls just want to have fun) and Dream Valley (Inspired by a movie/Song: Pretty in Pink and Cyndi Laupers Girls just want to have fun -  weird 80s mix, I guess).

Sommargunga

Idag är min första egentliga sommarsemesterdag och jag ser framemot att få pyssla en hel del kort. Förutom det har jag hunnit se på min son spela fotboll och mina flickor plaska i vatten och gunga i trädgården (vilket var min åsnebrygga till det här kortet). En bra dag alltså :)

Citykanin i trädgården

Här i våra hemmaknutar ser vi regelbundet oregelbundet en liten citykanin, men den är säkert mer destruktiv i det gröna än sin Bugaboo-kusin.

Thanks for the Party!

Originally my sentiment was going to say Thanks for the party, but then I realized there was nowhere enough space for that. That's what you get when you don't plan it through in advance :)

I'm participating in: Brown Sugar (Color palette), Tuesday Morning Sketches, C.R.A.F.T. (Thank you), Fan-Tastic Tuesday (AG) Sentimental Sunday (Summer + sentiment) and Digitally Sweet (Inspired by favorite book: I must say the feeling I aspired to is a happy, feminine, colorful chick-lit beach read, namely just about any main character from a Jill Mansell book that I always devour. But forced to choose one book, I'd say Rumour has it).

Grattis på födelsedagen!

Då jag färgade Bugaboo-Nallen och valde övriga färger försökte jag göra nåt könsneutralt, men slutresultatet känns inte så piggt.

Jag deltar i: Moving along with the Times (Birthdays), TTCRD (AG), Dream Valley (Song inspired: Happy Birthday), Avenue 613 (AG), Gem of a Challenge (Suitable for a child) och Suzy Bee (AG).
