Bugaboo Challenge- Summer Theme


Welcome to another Bugaboo Challenge!
This week we have a fun one- Summer Theme. I always love summer challenges because summer images are so fun and Jodie has so many to choose from. I have had this DP for a couple of years and thought it was perfect to use for this challenge! I always think of summer when pastel colors are involved =)
I used a sketch one of my fellow DT members Scrappy came up with. Bugaboo decided this would not be a sketch challenge but I didn't have time to remake a card. I only wish I would have saved the sketch image to post here in case anyone needed a challenge. It was one of the most challenging sketches I have ever used. Scrappy rocks challenges!
If you can't tell in the picture I added Crystal Effects to the little boy's glasses and sprinkled glitter into them. They turned out SWEETTT, totally summer!
You will not want to miss the other DT members cards so hop on over to the The Bugaboo Blog (Catch the Bug).
Thanks for stoppin by!
