June Challenge Simply Magnolia

We're back with another challenge over at Simply Magnolia. 

The theme for this month is:

You can make whatever you like as long as your card/creation has Magnolia products on it.

What could be more Swedish than a Crawfish Party (kräftskiva).. 

It starts in the beginning of August (this tradition started because the crawfish harvest in Sweden was, for the most of the 20th century, legally limited to the late Summer). You boil the crawfish together with water, beer, some sugar and fresh dill. It is served cold and eaten with you fingers. You eat the crawfish together with some bread, salads, Västerbotten cheese pie and other dishes served in buffet-style. Let's not forget about the beer and the snaps - very important! You sing drinking songs like Helan går and wear silly hats. I mean, what can be more fun than this! 😀

I decided to make a mini pocket letter invitation with this theme in mind. I have used Pinch Peal Eat Repeat and Crawfish Boil from the Crawfish Boil collection from 2020 by Magnolia. I coloured the images with Spectrum Noir Classique Markers. The patterned papers are also from Magnolia - Scandinavian Map from the Summer Memories collection and Wave from the You are My Hero collection. I cut a photo sleeve from Echo Park in half and used the 4x6 sheet for my pocket. I closed the sequins pocket using my fusing tool kit by We R Memory Keepers.

I would like to enter this into the following challenges:

- Challenge Up Your Life:

- Creatalicious Challenges, Challenge # 213: Anything Goes with the option of at/in the Water
