I loved the sketch!!! I was so happy to find this blog, 2sketches4you, and challenge the other night. It is such a fun and interesting one.I have not used my beachy or summer themed stamps much, so it was my goal to in this card. My inspiration was the blue scrap paper I had in my drawer. I embossed it with my cuttlebug then sanded the top to show through to the white core of the paper. I loved the look of it. My card is not quite what I expected, but I am warming up to it. I should have colored in the floatie, but I remember as a youngin' :) using a black inner tube to swim and play with. I just had to make Bella one!! I used my ranger embossing powders again as well as paper pieced the float to her. I watercolored the background, added glitter and seashells to the sand for texture. It was a fun card to make. I hope you all like it. :) Good night.

Heather, I love this card! How do you keep cranking out so many with all you are doing as a mom? You are so creative. This card brings back sweet memories of swimming in the pond on the farm with my inner tube. Had to watch out for that stem poking out when I jumped into it!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the memories!
