Hello Stampers ~ Is today a Perfect Day for you?
Wow I was running yesterday! I was going all day long and was so glad when it was the evening and I could sit down. Then I still had to do my post for today as well as finish my bedding laundry. I have a feeling it will be a late night for me!
Today is the Coloring Down the Lines blog hop. We are focusing on Mother’s Day but we could not use flowers.
I had an idea for this challenge but when I started working on this I went in an entirely different direction. I thought about what I would like to do for Mother’s Day and thought it would be nice to relax on the beach. So I went with that idea. I used the Day at the Beach stamp set and created a beach scene. I tore a post it note and sponged on my sand. I then flipped the post it note and sponged in my water. I stamped the sun in the upper corner. The umbrella, hat, and flip flops were stamped and colored with markers. I then fussy cut them out All I needed to do then was add them to my card front using dimensionals. I created my sentiment using 2 stamps in the stamp set. I used some masking and selective inking to get my sentiment. I punched a decorative label out of Pacific Point and added the sentiment. It was added to my card base with dimensionals. Here is my completed creation.
