Goodbye to summer

After my win at the July cheerfulsketcheschallenge, I not only got a really cool prize - digis by bugaboostamps - but I was also invited to be Guest DT for September.

So, I got the sketch and another digi from bugaboostamps, and here we go! I thought. But to be honest, when I saw the pig I didn't know what to do with it. I looked at it for a couple of days asking myself - and asking the piglet - how to use it. But the piglet was quiet and I had to figure it out on my own. And the task turned out to be a real challenge.

In the end, I decided to make a holiday card - the pig looks like he just landed in paradise with his orange suitcase and a drink in his hands, and he wears a typical tourist T-shirt :) That's why I've chosen this tropical flower background and the flower punch. For a long time, I struggeled with the upper and lower part of the pattern, but then I used these golden swirl-stickers which might look like some decoration in a hotel resort far, far away. For the text, I punched a sun and signed it with a simple "Enjoy" - after all, that's what holidays are made for ;)

Enough talk now, this is how your challenge for September looks like:

And this is a little inspiration I prepared for you:

Now, be creative ;) I can't wait to see how you'll master this challenge!

As school has started in Slovenia today, the pig has probably returned from his vacation and says: "Goodbye to summer" - just like the latest challenge at craftalnica.
