Thirsty Thursday The Third of June

phew! What a beautiful sunny day! I changed my plans today as I didn't think what I was going to do would work in this temperature. So today I have stayed at home! :)

I've been watercolouring in the garden (thanks to the very talented Karen for showing me how to use a waterbrush effectively), done minimal housework and lazied in the sunshine. Perfect.

I have something crafty to show you today that I did last night but it isn't very seasonal. I am showing you my first card for the 25th Club Christmas Card May Challenge over on Bubbly Funk. I know I am terribly late and I do apologise to the lovely Gez who set this month's challenge.

The criteria for this challenge was to use predominately red and green, make your own background, incorporate a tag and use inchies for triple brownie points! I think I have managed all these. tee hee. I have another one to do for May (as I set myself a target of two a month) and then I can do June's Challenge which I set.
