Summertime - What?

Well, I never felt less like it is summertime than I do these days. Saying that I must admit that the sun has been shining a bit (only a bit) today but the last month, June, has been terrible for rain and some days have been quite cold and windy too.  According to the weather forecast there is not much ahead for us at the moment either.

However, to try to get us all cheered up the girls over at Out of a Hat Creations have decided that "Summertime" is the theme for their challenge this week.


This little boy has been coloured in using my Caran D'Ache watercolour crayons and is a Faye Whittaker rubber stamp.  I just fell in love with her Victorian collection when they first came out.  I think I have blogged all the four that I purchased now with this last one.

This was done for a friend of mine for his birthday - and as he loves France I hope it made him  think of his favourite country.  It certainly reminded me of a holiday I once had there.
