Sunshine Sparkles

  Good  Morning!

I don't know how the weather is where you live, but

we will be hitting some very high temps here today. 

The worst thing is the heat index and humidity. 

Guess we will be packing LOTS of water for my little girls

dance showcase rehearsal!

(all week long!)

I have a simple summery creation to share with you today. 

My card featured  the Fresh Brewed Designs rubber stamp

CORDELIA IN SAND

 

 

 

I used some scrap papers from my stash for this card. 

The card base and sand that Cordelia is sitting on  was

spritzed and painted with tattered angles silver glimmer mist. 

She was colored using copic and prismacolor markers.

The waves were created using a MFT Diecut and the clouds

are from a PTI Diecut. 

Here is a photo to show off the way the waves and papers pop off of the card base. 

It also shows off  her sparkly highlights created with eucalyptus stickles.

have a fintastic day

Hello everyone!
I hope you had a lovely and restful weekend.

While chatting with one of my best~est friends evah late one night while my hubby was working, I started creating this card. It did NOT turn out how I had planned earlier that day. I had picked out pink and black papers. I am so happy that I remembered I had just recently bought this paper from the Scrapbook Cottage. It is even more beautiful IRL! I LOVE these colors. Also while digging in my stash (I need to do that more often;) I found these coffee filters I had painted and glittered up a LONG time ago. Even as long as a year ago I would guess. I used my Marvy circle punch to punch the largest circle ... and it got hung :(!!! (TOC, did you hear me beating it against the floor last night while we were on the phone??) Well, I broke it! HAHAHA!!! Not so funny because I now do not have one, but it was one of those DUH moments ... therefore it was funny. Note to self: If a paper punch gets hung up, dont beat it against the floor or beat the inside with scissors. Something bad is bound to happen. Thank goodness I did not stab myself, I only broke the spring in the punch :D

I felt this card was just ME and I had SO much fun making it for ME :)
I had my challenge list on my table, and set it aside.I figured, If they fit the challenge after I was done, I would use them :) and out of the ones I had written down, around a third of them did fit! WOOHOO!!

There is alot of dimension on this card. The blue cardstock is attached to the base with a thin layer of foam mount. The die cut that Cordelia is sitting on is mounted with a thicker foam mount square. I layered the pink waves and ribbon over the die cut rather than under as I had originally planned.

I do hope you enjoy looking at this card as much as I enjoyed making it :)
Have a beautiful and wonderful week.

HUGS!!!
Heather
