Truly Scumptious DT and Thanks to You

First I'd like to say a huge thanks to all you lovely people for your reassurances that it was 'blogger' being a pain yesterday, not my computer. Since I had serious problems with my computer earlier in the year (which took almost 3 months to sort out completely) I go into panic mode when anything happens and think "Oh NO not again!!!" So I can't tell you how comforting it was to know that many of us had the same problem.


********************


Welcome back for another Truly Scrumptious challenge, I hope you are enjoying some summer sunshine in your part of the world. Thank you for all your yummy Strawberries & Cream entries, they were delicious!! 


Before we get on to our latest challenge, would you like to join our Truly Scrumptious Design Team? We are looking for two new DT members to join our friendly team. If you are interested please find the details HERE - the deadline for entries is Wednesday 14th July.

This challenge is being sponsored by the lovely Christine Dark - Sketching Stamper. Christine makes the most beautiful cards (click here to have a look) and she is also a very talented artist who designs her own range of digi images. The winner of this challenge will get to choose five of Christine's images as their prize.






I chose the Sarah Kaye image. Spring Blossoms and coloured her with a mixture of Copics and distress inks. The dp is another from the gorgeous Peach Dream digi set by Donna at Bearly Mine designs - you're going to be seeing a lot of these!! I cut the border with an MS punch, the flourishes with a Marianne creatable and the flowers with EK Success retro flower punches. The sentiment is Whiff of Joy and  the pearls are from my stash. I have flipped the sketch other than the sentiment.





Here is the sketch for you to follow and your optional extra this week is
"How does your garden grow"

Hope you can join us and don't forget we are looking for 2 new DT's to join our happy little gang.

 I am also entering this card into Crafty Calender Challenge which  has the theme of summer and the extra option of using yellow. There was also another challenge I intended to enter but have forgotten which - I really must stop being so 'scatty'
