Thank you, thank you for all the wonderful visits and the lovely comments.
I love visiting your blogs and seeing the great work you all do. Thanks go to Kristin for a great challenge.
Now I may not be around too much this week and I hope you accept my apologies if I don't get right back to you after a comment of if I don't visit you, but our daughter has just gone into labour with her first baby and our first grandbaby.
We will be driving across country later this morning. It is very exciting ;0)
Red was the challenge colour for this week at The Summer of Colour.
I had made some paper poppies and wanted to use them so this colour choice was just perfect.
I thought I would do a mermaid this week as they are my favourite things to draw.
She holds her gathered poppies and has a little dragonfly friend with her.
She isn't finished. No sparkles yet -shock, horror! She NEEDS sparkles. The border is going to be paper mosaic but that will have to wait for this week.
Don't forget to check out what the talented people are doing over at The Summer of Colour.
Hugs, Alis
