I'm a Guest Designer at Digital Delights (Digital Delights image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

I am very excited to be a guest designer at Digital Delights by Louby Loo this challenge. Their images are oh-so-adorable and this sweet one below is called Beach Babe Britt, but you can find all the images HERE. I gave her some shimmery bathers and hat but difficult to see in the photo and I also used some Glossy Accents on the glasses and beach ball. I created the background using distress inks and then dabbing on white liquid pearls in lines to make it look like sea foam. The clouds and sun are dies from Lawn Fawn. 



I am entering this card into the following challenges:

Creatalicious - anything goes with option of CAS 
Deep Ocean - colors of summer
Di's Digis - summer
Dream Valley - summer colours
Fairytale Challenges - summer special
