Summer fun!

Hello hello and happy Thursday!

Summer is in full swing and I'm loving every moment of it.  I'm totally ready to head to the beach...

Maybe join these two super cool Golden Oldies from the Art Impressions Jump In set.  

They are so so cute!  

So, whatcha doing this summer?  Something fun, I hope...  

Maybe up for a challenge on a hot summer day and not in the mood to be out...

You can always play along the Sweet Summer Challenge!  Click HERE for details.

So, see you at the beach or over at the blog!  :D

Awww... sweetest couple ever!

Hello Hello and happy Monday!

I'm sharing two super sweet cards with you today using the Hobby Lobby Love Birds set.

I absolutely adore this set and it's just so sweet and I just look at their lovebirds and say Awww...  

For the first card.  Check out this adorable couple enjoying the moment at sunset.

To create the sunset background, I used Faber Castell gelato, just randomly scribble horizontally.  Then I used a baby wipe to blend.  Once dried, I used a 'cloud' stencil & white acyclic paint to add on some clouds. 

I colored the sweet couple with Copic markers.  And I also distress the edges with antique linen distress ink pad.

Here is another card using another adorable couple from the same set.

TONS of FUN!

Hello hello and happy Monday!

Today I'm sharing a super fun card using the Elephant Stacker.  I absolutely adore these elephants, they are all so so cute!  Tons of fun and all pile up, cuteness overload!

I colored these adorable elephants with Copic markers.  And for the background, I once again used the Marvy LePlume II markers in Violet and Brilliant yellow.  Instead of the spritzing water on the watercolor palette.  I decided to use some perfect pearl mist.  Unfortunately, it doesn't show well on the photo.  But it does look really cool with a little bit of shimmer. 

Thanks so much for stopping by today and I hope you have TONS OF FUN today!
