Some sad news but also a card

As you will know by now if you have been over to the Crafty Friends Challenge Blog,  we are closing for the forseeable future due to our wonderful Blog owner and leader Diane sadly being diagnosed with cancer

We all want her to focus on fighting this awful disease and fully undertand that it is very important to her to spend time with her family 

We hope that Diane will cope well with the treatment and all wish her a good recovery and hope that when and if she is well enough to start the blog up again she will let us all stay on the DT 

Our thoughts are with you and your family Diane 

I had already made our card for the challenge that would have started today so thought I should share that with you 

We were due to be sponsored by Emerald Faeries and this is the lovely image I got to use for our theme which was to be

My DT card for Lacy Sunshine

Its Sunday and time for a lovely new challenge over at Lacy Sunshine Challenge Blog

Our theme as always is nice and easy and one of our favourites

Anything Goes

Please remember that your entry MUST include a stamped or digital image which you have coloured by hand.  Also, only Lacy Sunshine projects will be eligible for the main prize, though other entries still qualify for the Top Three (2 digis) and GDT spot (if you have put GDT after your name when entering).

There's a slight change this week...due to the huge amount of people requesting the free digi and not using it in the challenge, which is what it was there for, Heather is now offering a new digi each challenge which will be discounted to $2 for the duration of the challenge.  But if you purchase the discounted challenge digi and use it in the challenge the next discounted challenge digi will be FREE on request, as will the follow on digi if you use that in the challenge and so on.  There are also a lot of retiring digis for $1 each over at the Lacy Sunshine Store or, of course, you can use a Lacy Sunshine one from your own collection.

Here is the discounted digi for this challenge which is available from the Lacy Sunshine Store for $2.  Please do not email Heather to request this digi but if you wish to purchase it you can make your purchase in the same way as you usually would.  Thank you.

 

  The image I was given to play with this week is called Reginald Clam Diggin, its part of the new Gnomes on vacation collection and is now available in the Lacy Sunshine Stamp Store HERE

I coloured the image with Copic Pens

The sentiment was a freebie digi from Sentiments 4 you

The papers I have used are both digi papers from a Nitwit collection called Puddle Jumpin, the palm trees are also from a collection called Jungle Fun so I just printed them out and cut around them before sticking to the easel edges

I have actually used proper sandpaper (for decorating) to make the sand as realistic as possible 

I found some images of shells on google which I printed onto glossy photo paper and then cut them out and shaped them before sticking to my card with Pinflair glue gel 

We are really looking forward to seeing your creations so please hop over and enter our challenge HERE
