Summer fun (GCA44)

I have had no time to stamp lately - too much going on in life. I whipped this card together today for Ann's summer challenge. My base is kraft cardstock, I used Nesties to cute out the gable green and white cardstock. I then sponged the white with tempting turquoise for more of a water look. Sophie is colored with copics and I made her beach ball with a circle puch then colored with matching colors. I almost forgot for more of a sand look on my base, I sponged creamy caramel and basic brown ink. I colored white grograin ribbon with a tempting turquoise marker and added the saying on it. Be sure to join in Ann's fun each week.

I made this card for the mojo monday sketch from the mojo monday blog - be sure to check it out and join in on the fun. I hate the way my picture turned out, the lighting just wouldn't go right today at all for some reason but you can still see it alright.

I used chocolate chip, rose red and whisper white cardstock along with Bella Rose DSP. My stamp is from Hanna Stamps, Riley and Sophie Wedding Moose. I used pink piourette ink around the edges, stamped them in black memento ink and colored them in with copic markers. Sophie's dress is actually colored in with the copic spica clear glitter pen but you can't really tell that in the picture. I used dimensionals behind them to pop them up over the taffeta white ribbon. I added felt flowers that are brown and pink. I had seen the sketch yesterday and thought about it all night long what I wanted to do, I still had no idea and just started grabbing stuff after I figured out what stamp I wanted to use. I think it turned out cute though.

I thought this would be a cute card for a graduation for Ann's challenges this week of out of the box. I liked it because graduation time is the beginning of summer and kids need to believe in their dreams. I used real red, and whisper white cardstock, brilliant blue DSP along with brilliant blue and black staz-on inks. Sophie is colored in using copics markers and spica glitter on her flower, she is actually on some dimensionals. I also used real red grograin ribbon and a flower from the pretties kit. The background is stamped with itty bitty backgrounds. Be sure to check out and join in on Ann's challenges each week.
