DT CARD Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge #96

Good morning everyone, time for another super challenge over at SCSC, but first however I want to apologise to everyone who took part last week, and to my DT buddies.  I've been away camping, only getting home yesterday and though I took my dongle and could get online - I could not access ANY blogs, including my own which was a nightmare as some posts were scheduled but incomplete as I had every intention of finishing them off whilst away.   I feel real bad cos obviously I couldn't leave any comments.   Now I'm home and the connections all seem to be working perfectly so I'm looking forward to doing some hopping and seeing all your fabulous makes.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

This weeks challenge is set by my wonderful teamie Vicky and she's come up with a super theme of...........

"What Are Little Girls Made Of?"

We want to see girlie projects so dig out all your girly images, pretty flowers, gems and glitter - the more the better


I must admit I deviated from the theme slightly when I saw this image from Mo - just reminded me of ME when I was little, I was a right tomboy, usually had a ball in my hand and certainly didn't do girly dresses, bright pink or flowers.  In fact, I think I hated all things girly rofl.  So hence the lack of girly embellies - but some girls just aren't made of them lol.!

The paper I used goes perfectly with this image I think and it's GORGEOUS.  It's from the Pulse Collection by Prima Marketing and I bought it from the Secret Crafter store, where the copics and promarkers I used for colouring are also available.

The cardstock and card candy is from my stash.

I'm off now to make a dent in the laundry accumulated whilst we were away and put all the camping gear away in the loft.  I am NOT impressed that the garden office Pete has promised to build me in the spring for my crafting is now going to be smaller - to make room for storage for all our camp stuff!!!  It's off in the loft today so I can't see why it can't stay there!! LOL - something else about little girls now springs to mind "I'll scream and scream and scream until I'm sick!!"  Can't remember now which TV show thats from but I remember copying it when I couldn't have something rofl - hmmm, wonder if that would work on Pete hahahahaa.

Thanks for taking the time to stop by and thanks for looking.
