Summer Holiday

Hi again, everyone.
Yesterday was the kids last day at school - lucky them; 2 months vacation just started.
I really miss those endless summerdays!
(I miss teaching too, especially this time of year :) )

This image - My Besties img 854 -with the long, wild hair, trying to be tamed with ribbons and braiding, is just like my daughter Hedda. So I tried to colour it in her colours, with her favourite colours on the clothes and in the papers (Magnolia) and embellishments.
You can find lots and lots of My Besties images here.
I coloured the image with ProMarkers.
 Hedda was very satisfied with it, as she brought it to her teacher on the last day.

Some of the butterflies (Martha Stewart Monarch Butterfly Large and Small Punch) are glued on stringswirls. I think it gives such a fun effect; almost as they're flying above the card. Of course the butterflies are glittered, as are the flowers :)
The circleshaped greeting above the image (saying "Thanks") can spin around.

The inside is simple decorated. We used Martha Stewarts Vintage Floral PATP-set to make the panels.
Upon the we attached scalloped circles made with an Marvy Uuchida punch.
The greetings and images on the left side are Hannah stamps, bought ages ago...
we put on a few butterflies inside too
