Papercraft Star and Happy Birthday!!!

Good morning!
(This is my second post today ... if you would like to ... please scroll down to the first post for Stella's Birthday)

Today it's a new challenge at Papercraft Star and this week the prompt is 
Water!


Well we've had plenty of rain here in the UK ... But I much prefer the ocean and seaside fun


This week I used digital images from each of these sheets courtesy of our sponsor THATB 



along with a sweet image from my print shop program


I  machine stitched in a matching colour thread to the pretty frame ... added a piece of a crochet doily from my 'bits' box ... some beachy yellow grass from an old bag of pot pourri ... ribbon from my supplies and a K&Co epoxy sticker ... the forever friends sentiment is a rubon ... again from my supplies.

My talented colleagues at Papercraft Star have really created some wonderful samples for you to enjoy ... please hop over and take a look and for your chance to win some digitals from THATB ... just link up your "Water" creations on the blog link

Till soon
