Challenge #17

Finally a new challenge at Little Hands Challenge Blog! Soooo sorry to our followers....it has been a busy summer (so far) and there have been a few changes with our design team and blog.

For now, let's get right to the challenge. The theme is summer and since that is what has kept us from our cardmaking and blogging, we want to know what you have been up to in the form of a card. Our sponsor is The Stamping Boutique



This is a stamping company that is near and dear to us cause Miss E and PK are also on the kid's DT at The Crafter's Cafe and the two are affiliated. They have offered 3 digis to the randomly chosen winner to be drawn on Aug. 15th.

Here is some inspiration from PK - I have been swimming, camping and playing at parks with my sister, brothers and cousins. This card is for my cousin's 4th birthay coming up in August and he loves swinging!!!


Miss E made a card using 'Cannon Ball Keith' cause she loves swimming, especially jumping off the dock at the cabin.



Now put those little hands to work and link up your projects below.
