Chunky 8 for a mate

Over on uks I joined in the chunky swap because I had so much fun with the last one, this one was an open theme which I was more than a little nervous about as I hadn't a clue what to do! so with the help of the swap fairy I found out that my swappee Gill like the colour lime green and she also like funky images. As we had been having really hot summer weather I thought I would go with a summer theme, I downloaded some octopode images on etsy, I really like these images and the good thing about digi images you can make them any size you want :) I painted my wood a nice lemon colour and stuck on some lime green paper, the waves and sun are part of the octopode digi stamp as well, added some beads as feet. I stuck on the clouds and sun on acetate to give the illusion of floating in the air and added the phrase you are my sunshine on the back. I really wasn't sure what to add on the sides, and after a lot of thinking I put the word fun and added a heart and shell on the other. Gill has received and likes it :)
