Thursday News

Hi!
What a way to start the day! My Facebook account was hacked, and all of my friends were sent a very ugly message. Fortunately for me, I think, the person used such terrible language that my friends realized the message was not written by me. The unfortunate part is I have young people who are friends, and I dislike  them getting that message. I have de-activated my FB account...I just don't need that aggravation in my life.

On to something more pleasant...........

It is time for a new challenge at Mo's Digital Pencil (#82). It is also the second week for the Guest Designer call. Here is my card for the 'Here Comes Summer' challenge.



The image I used is Mo's 'Pool Party'. It can be found HERE. Like so many of Mo's images there is humor, innocence, and a story behind this image.

Here is a close-up of the image.

After I colored the image with Copic markers I added red chalk to create a sunburn. This was a fun image to color.

Hope you have a great day! Thanks for stopping by. LC
