AT THE BEACH
I would like to say very topical but for everyone in the UK its the last place we want to be in this weather! Maybe if we all made a nice beach card it would shame Mr Sunshine into showing his face - worth a try?
Here is the card I have made:
I don't think the rain will bother this beauty - she's already got the fins to deal with it lol! The digi is by Lexi and called Melody she is available to purchase at Fairy Dust Crafts. I have coloured Melody with my Copics and added Mermaid Stickles. The papers are by Nitwits from the From The Sea Too Collection. The beautiful lace was part of the candy I won from the beautiful Alessandra (big thank you again). The sentiment is computer generated and cut out with Spellbinders Nesties. I have cut, embossed and matted the image using Nesties. The seahorse and starfish are cut using a Cuttlebug die, the corner from a Whimsy die and gems and shells from my stash. I have followed the sketch from Sketch Saturday for my layout. I would like to enter the following challenges:
So why don't you pop over to Lexi's Creations and see what my talented team mates have come up with? This week our sponsors are:
I'd like to give a big welcome to my latest follower Hanna and thank you Hanna its always thrilling to see a new follower!! On a final note I must admit I was slightly relieved about the outcome of the match last night! Only because I have tickets to see Starlight Express in Manchester on Thursday and my husband looked decidedly ill when I reminded him we wouldn't be home to see the semi finals!! That got me out of that tricky situation lol! Thanks so much for looking I really appreciate it and take care xx
