Lazy Hazy Day

Hello Peeps

I hope eveyone's been enjoying the summer weather at last! :D  We went for a lovely walk in a local nature reserve with the pooch this morning :)

Here's my card for today and this one is for me Dad, as it's his birthday aswell next week! I've used another cute LOTV stamp, the fab papers are from SEI's 'Mimosa' collection and the stamp I've used around the image is from Hero Arts. The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts, jewels are by Doodlebug, the swirly corner die is from Sizzix, border punch is by Martha Stewart and finally the dragonfly die is from Magnolia.
I've painted with watercolours and distressed around the image with 'Wild Honey' and I also used the same colour for the swirly stamp too.
