Cupcake Craft Challenge # 46...It's Summer

Here we are starting yet another new week.....time really does fly when your having fun doesn't it? lol!

We have a new challenge for you today over at the Cucpcake Craft Challenge blog and this weeks theme has been chosen by my very talented DT buddy Kathrin and her chosen theme is...IT'S SUMMER.

For my card I have used Doodlebug papers called 'Pastel Wildflowers' which were purchased from my local craft shop and my image is a digi stamp from Funky Fairy which has been marker coloured and mounted onto some pale lilac 'bazzill bling' card stock. The borders were punched with a Martha Stewart punch (a belated birthday gift) and I have embellished my card with ribbon and gems from my craft box. Flowers were created using...yup, you've guessed...an X-Cut flower punch lol!

Hope you have lots of fun with this weeks challenge, you'll find plenty of inspiration from the DT over on the challenge blog! TFL :)
