Charming image from A Day for Daisies... perfect for a "Summer" challenge.
After coloring the focal image I masked off the edges and used Distress Inks to create a faux frame. I used a lace punch to make a "ribbon" for down one side, a Cuttlebug folder to create the plaid on the base card and finally colored white Candi with the same pink Copic I used for her dress to fit the corners punched with the stub shape.
This card should
