Back to school - summer's over!

So...
This one's a bit different...
a bit unexpected.

At Patties Creations this month, 
the challenge is, 'back to school.'

I had a think  - and as I work in a school
I thought I would make a card for one of my colleagues.
I thought this might cheer her up a bit, on the first day back!


I used Patties image: Tropical drink with umbrellas
I coloured it with my promarkers
and made some teeny bunting, by hand-cutting some
tiny triangles, and inking the edges. 
The image has been backed onto a fab summery paper, from a
Lawn Fawn 6 x 6 paper pack. 
The spotty papers are from the same pack.

I would like to enter this into the following challenges:

Crafty galz - atg - 7 Sept
Aud sentiments - atg and a sentiment - 12 Sept

Hahaha great sentiment! I can imagine that is exactly how it is too! Let's just hope there are drinks available that look as good as this one does (non-alcoholic of course).

Thank you for joining in at Aud Sentiments and good luck,

Haha! I used to work in a school! I think your sentiment is spot on! Love the vibrant colors of the drink with the softer colors of the rest of the details.

Thank you for joining us at Crafty Gals Corner for our Anything Goes challenge.
