Summer Daze

I'm not sure where the time goes, but it's Thursday again and time for another challenge at Charisma Cardz.  This week the theme is 3-2-1, a recipe, where you use 3 of something, 2 of something and 1 of something else.  We are hoping you get a chance to play along and have a little fun!


Now this is my idea of summer....pretty flowers, a good book and a spot of cool shade.  This pretty image has been coloured with copics and can be found here, at the Paper Shelter.  I've used chalk to create the sky and clouds, and a bit of DI for the edging.

As you can see.....I've used 3 flowers, 2 corner punches and 1 ribbon.  For the finishing touches there's a bit of faux stitching and DI, some liquid pearls, and of course it wouldn't be summer without a butterfly!

For this week's challenge, we'd like to welcome 

 
who are providing the lucky winner with their choice of 6 digi images!

We do hope you get the chance to join in the challenge this week, but at least be sure to stop by the challenge and check out all of the lovely creations from the rest of the DT.   Enjoy your day!
