Morning....from Blackpool

Good morning everyone, this is a very early post for me and I'm still in bed writing this.  We stayed in Blackpool last night as Alan had a meeting here yesterday.....I had a lovely walk along the seafront, it was a beautiful day.   Blackpool holds such wonderful childhood memories for me, as coming from a mining community in the North East, it was the place to holiday. It was only the journey I hated, as always having been a 'bad traveller', I was like a 'limp lettuce leaf'  by the time we got here! Anyway, I dreamt about my lovely, late mam and dad last night, and Alan says it was because Blackpool holds special memories of them :-(   
So, today we are going to Thwaite, in the Yorkshire Dales, for the Anniversary 'hooley', but not before we've had another bracing walk along the promenade and said goodbye to 'Blackie'!
Todays card is a bit of a 'mish-mash' for me......I used some papers which were free from a magazine, a set of Nit-Wit stamps, bought off a facebook group, and a new Marianne fancy corner.   I tore, and inked the background paper, but I'm not sure if I like it or not . I'm sure you'll all tell me though :)
Ok, that's it for today, please leave a comment if you've enjoyed looking, I really do appreciate them xx

  4. Love the card and the colours, love Blackpool too, stayed many times in Fleetwood, just down the road, they used to have lovely crafty sales there many years ago. Always had a few trips into Blackpool when ever I was up at Fleetwood. Enjoy the rest of your trip and the Dales. xxxx
