Hello Summer

Hi everyone!

I hope you are having a fabulous day!

I have a card to share with you today that I made with a few challenges in mind. 

They are:

--Cute Card Thursday: #639 Summer--

--Stamplorations June Stencil Challenge--

--Die Cut Divas: Summertime Fun--

--Classic Design Challenge Blog: #6 June 2020--

&

--Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Summer Fun--

Here is a look at the card that I created:

Summer fun for me is definitely going to the beach and relaxing. I've had this stamp set from Hello Bluebird for awhile now and never got it inky. These challenges were the perfect time to pull it out and play with it. I started my card by doing a little ink blending for the ocean and using a cloud stencil to create the sky. I added some Kraft cardstock for my sand layer and trimmed down my panel. I covered a white card base with some blue patterned paper and added my beach panel to the center.  I used my Misti to stamp my sentiment using a set from Neat & Tangled and added a yellow frame.  I stamped out the Hippo, Umbrella, Pail, Ball, Towel and drink with some Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored in the images with my Copic markers. After they were colored, I used my Scan N Cut to cut them out and layered them to create my scene.  I felt like it needed just a little something so I printed out a little sailboat clipart that I found for free on Google, colored it, fussy cut it out and added it to my scene.

 I'm so pleased with how this card turned out! I think it is so fun and cute!!

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today and taking a look at my latest creation!

I hope you have a great crafty day!
