Anyone for Tennis! ...

Good evening all....
Yesterday my Magnolia summer collection arrived and i was thrilled to bits with this collection, i got crafting straight away and couldn't resist using this Edwin Stamp given  we are well into this year's Wimbledon Tournament :-) ... it is an 8x8 card and i have used pink petticoat "Fluffy Cloud" papers, magnolia doohicky tag, tag and border dies, decorated with punched handmade flowers ....im signing off now to catch up with today's tennis highlights, with my fresh strawberry's freshly hand picked from my garden.....have a lovely evening whatever you are up to and I'll be back soon bloggers...X
