I need to offer my apologies before you look at my card because it is very bright!! So you might need to put on some sunglasses first:
Well I did warn you! For some reason all the pictures I took make the cardstock and Copics look green but they are more blue green, like a teal, than show on this picture but they all turned out like this. The image is Pollycraft's Life's a Beach and she has been coloured with Copics and Prismas. I have cut and matted her with Nesties. The butterfly is a Cheery Lynn die and the banner is Memory Box. The flowers are made using a Tonic punch and the border is made with an EK puch. The papers are from Basic Grey called Hello Luscious and the ribbon and gems are from my stash.
I would like to enter the following challenges:
Basic Grey Challenge - Fun in the Sun
Fab 'n Funky - Summer Holiday
Well I am off to work today - yes work!!! I have been retired for almost 13 months so this is a novelty. My sister is running some consultations with the public and has asked me to help with a few so I am doing two this week and one next week with her. It certainly feels strange thinking about work again.
Thanks so much for looking I appreciate it, please leave a comment so I know you have been - take carexx
