Just Magnolia challenge 66!

Over at Just Magnolia, Bev has a wonderful sketch! Easy to follow, I twisted it full time, LOL! My dear hubby and son threw me a 50 Years old (I will be in August) surprise party, so I am on my way to send out some thank you cards!! This is one of them!

TMITA/PCC - Challenge 26 July - "Dogs days of summer"

Patti brings us this challenge, which I never heard of, but thanks to Google I found out it's about lazy doing nothing days, like during vacation. Hope I was right, LOL! This image by Nina/Paper Cupcakes is perfect for the project. Lazy day on the beach. I used paper piecing technique and framed it in a white wooden frame I had hanging around empty. For this challenge you can use any acquired image from PCC.
