Now on to the new challenge for this week!  Our new challenge theme is:

Books/Reading

You can interpret this however you like - use books on your ATC, base your ATC on your favorite book, use book print/text on your ATC, etc.  Just make sure you explain in your post how it relates to the theme, if it's not obvious.  Thanks!

This week's generous sponsor is:

The image the DT and I are playing with and providing as a prize to one random participant this week is Stella the Summer Storyteller

 So here's some eye candy to hopefully inspire you to play along!

I colored my Stella image with Prismacolor markers and mineral spirits.  DP is from Donna Salazar:

I also made an ATC with a cropped version of Stella, as the rest of my DT did! I thought it was cool to see how we all cropped her differently.  Check out my blog here for the details:

Sharon focused on Stella herself, did a fab job coloring and just how does she always seem to come up with the most awesomely coordinating DP?

I love how Chelsea made Stella's dress and the kitty overlapping the grass - makes the image just pop out at you:

Megan used fussy cutting for her image, too, and that text background is so perfect, isn't it?  I love her coloring and highlighting, too:

So remember to check the rules and guidelines before submitting and link up your ATC below by next Tuesday at 7:00 p.m. EST.  I'm looking forward to seeing the different interpretations of this challenge!  Peace.
