Thanks for summer...

Here's to the weekend, which looks like it will be nice after all, as the sun is peeking out.  Hopefully yours will be the same.  Just a quick post today with another card I made up for a grandchild to give to her teacher.  As she is an avid reader, I thought this image worked great  I don't think she'd like to share her space with a mouse though, but on a card....perfect!



 Once again I kept it nice and simple, though I did have a play with some embossing and distressing.  The image is another cutie from Meljen's Designs, and I've coloured with copics once again.  I finally made use of the pretty craft tape that I purchased last year, which to my surprise is actually fabric.  A Spellbinders die to cut out and mat the image, some rub-ons for the sentiment and some paper candi pieces to finish it off.

Some fun challenges for me to enter:
