Hello and welcome, today w begin a new challenge at Make My Monday (MMM).  Heather has chosen #228 Outdoor Summer Fun. To see the design team's inspiration, please visit the blog. 

The great outdoors can mean so many things to so many different people. I love the beach and the countryside, which we love to explore, with a picnic backpack and a camera and we're off. 

All of the stamps I used are with a sheet of stamps included in the Creative Stamping magazine #83. The stamps are from Hunkydory Love of Stamps - Great Outdoors.  I used Distress inks, Versafine Onyx Black and Promarkers. Techniques used include Fussy cutting, using a stamping platform and using 3d foam pads.

The stamp is a Fizzy Moon -called All Bout Him.  I coloured all of the image with my alcohol pens - Promarkers. The book was blank, for the creator to add their own title, which makes it more personal. I added a blue and white gingham ribbon and tied bow.
