With our strange weather (high 90 degree F days already and for several days in a row - what happened to Spring???), the OPTIONAL theme of our challenge at Crafty Catz this week is perfect - "Summer." Of curse, we're always an Anything Goes challenge but we give you a fun optional topic if you want to use it.
Our sponsor for this challenge is Mirtillamente and the image I used is called "Crazy Island." They are offering a prize of 2 images of your choice from their store.
I colored the image with Sanjoki markers and highlights were done with a white gel pen. I cut the image with a stitched, scalloped die from Memory Box. The square frame was cut with a die from Lawn Fawn. I thought the two different stitched dies worked well together and I like the opposition of a circle and a square.
The background 'denim' dp is a scrap from a Recollections stack and the flowers came from Petaloo.

Phew 90 already!!! That's hot. It's about 60 here today, a bit chilly but prefer it to 90! Your card has a lovely summer vibe, love how you've framed the image, perfect choice of colours and beautiful colouring.
