CD Sunday Plus - Challenge #142 - hosted by Margaret

Some more digital delights used in my offering for this challenge.  I am glad that I made this card a little while ago because my son - bless him - decided two days ago that he had some spare time to use to update me to Windows 11.  But that wasn't all - because he didn't stop there.  I needed an upgrade to my graphics programme, so he did that as well.  The original that I had been using dated from 2009, so it was very old.  I now have an all singing, all dancing 2024 version.  He thought that this was wonderful, and that I would be thrilled.  Now he understands all this stuff, as he built his and my computers, but I feel as though I am drowning.  I will get there - I have done it before but it may take a while.

Here is the card I made earlier:

Designed using 'Magic Garden Soup'  - a digital folder from Polkadoodles, with added die-cut butterflies,  dragonfly and stick on pearls. The sentiment comes from the same folder.  The border was done with the graphics programme - the old one.

I look forward to more visits to your blogs.  Have fun and I will see you soon. xx

 Ocean Beach

The background was purchased from Aliexpress.   I created the border using my ACDSee Graphics Programme.   Two shells and the three pink starfish die-cuts are from Carnation Crafts - 'Around the Shore'.  The sea bird is a die cut, one of the Tiny Birds from 'Sparkle and Lace' - Tattered Lace.  The extra sea flowers are from Aliexpress.

I love sea scenes and enjoyed making this one. 

P.s.

Just a quick note to say that I am sorry that I didn't visit and comment during the last challenge.  A new medication had taken the rug out from under me and I have been spending most of my time asleep. I have stopped taking it now and hope to be back on track asap. Carol xx
