Secret Crafter Saturday #79

Morning everyone, we got gorgeous sunshine here in East Yorkshire today - it looks lovely and warm outside.  My migraine has receded again thankfully.  My ENT appointment wasn't much use other than to say my sinuses are clear.  They've discharged me and recommend a trip to neurology at least to help manage them.  Not sure whats I'm up to today, I am looking after my friends daughter whilst she's at work and the kids gymnastics is off this week so think it'll be a day of housework and maybe some crafting later.

--------------------------------------------------

  Thanks to everyone who took part in last weeks "Get Well" theme.  This week it's the turn of my lovely teamie Vicky and she's come up with a cracking theme which is sure to get your creative juices flowing......

" A   D A Y   O U T "

Here's what I came up with.....


I love this image.  It just reminds me so much of my brother when we were kids.  Our granddad used to take us "Winkling" up near Filey in the summer.  I clearly remember looking in rockpools to see what we could find with bucket, spade and a jam jar.  At the end of the day we all went back to grandads house where he'd cook a big pan of winkles.  Never tried them myself though - they looked disgusting lol!

RECIPE
Main Image - Charmed Download
Shell Stamp - PSX
Coloring Mediums - Copics, Promarkers and Chalk (Secret Crafter Shop)
Papers - 7Gypsies
Sentiment - done in Word on laptop
Highlights - Inkessentials White Pen (Secret Crafter Shop)

Please check out my teamies makes here, they really have been so creative with this one!!!  We'd love to see you join in the fun with this and I'm so looking forward to seeing what you all come up with.  Thanks for stopping by.  Enjoy the rest of your weekend

What a wonderful card.. You can almost feel that water and how fun it is to search for a treasure in it. Love the seashells you combined with it!
