SECRET CRAFTER SATURDAY CHALLENGE DT - SUMMER HOLIDAYS

Morning All!!
Thanks for stopping by yet again. Today is a fab new challenge for you over at The Secret Crafter. This week Helen has chosen the theme of Summer Holidays so that gives you loads to choose from and is open to your own interpretation. I chose to use this gorgeous little girl called "Lacie with ice cream" which is one of Mo's images, as to me summer holidays is nice hot weather, lazing around by the pool and cooling off with an ice cream lol! I have coloured her in with my Promarkers and used glossy accents on her glasses, both of which are available at the Secret Crafter Store. My dps are My Mind's Eye, summer papers which were a freebie with the Cardmaking & Papercrafts magazine this month. I have matted and layered them onto co-ordinations cardstock and DCWV cardstock, glitter stack. The beautiful organza ribbon and blooms come from Wild Orchid Crafts.
I am soooo in luv with this little girl hehe, look how sweet her little face is. She reminds me so of my gorgeous niece who is sadly so far away from me, living in Australia but I've decided I'm gonna post this off to her on Monday as it's her birthday at the end of the month.
Please do pop on over to the challenge blog here and see the fab inspiration the rest of the dt have for you. I'll be back tomorrow with my dt card for OSAAT. Lotsa luv xxxx
