New Monthly Challenge at the Sister's of Craft

Hi Everyone, First of all I would like to appologise that I haven't been about for a while, my husband's Aunt, recently passed away, and his Uncle (other side of family) is very poorly, as is still my Father-in-law. It has been one roller coaster of a time for us all! I shall be fleeting in and out for now, I hope you all don't mind!

So for today I am here with my DT project for our new monthly challenge over at the Sister's of Craft. Our sponsor for this month is :-

The prize is 3 digis

For my sample I have used the image ''Retail Therapy'', which you can purchase here. I coloured the image using Promarkers Almond, Blush, Sandstone, Tan, Soft Green, Turquoise, Mustard, Honeycomb, Rose Pink, Cocktail Pink, Antique Pink and Cool Grey 5. I highlighted using Wink of Stella Gold on the hair and Bag die cut and Clear on the shoes.

My First Creative Design Team Post for Lacy Sunshine

Hiya Crafty Friends, how are you all today? Well I have some good news, this is my first creation and post for Lacy Sunshine as part of their Creative Design Team - Wow I still can't believe it!

So here goes - The theme I have chosen is 'Back to School' and quite fitting as the summer holidays are now over in Scotland and all our kids are back at School. For this I am using the gorgeous and very apt Lupita, who is dreaming of what she got up to on her sunny summer holidays and her return back to school!
Instead of doing a card, I decided to create something different but in keeping with the theme, so came up with the idea of a notebook and pencil.
