Aud Sentiments #208 - Christmas in July

Happy Thursday stamping friends! Today I'm sharing my project for the challenge over at Aud Sentiments where the theme is...Flowers (plus sentiment)! Sorry I'm a little late getting this post up, the mid-week holiday and some vacation time got me a bit turned around this week!

Aren't they darling? Colored with Copic markers. Dies from Gina Marie. Patterned paper from Lawn Fawn. Brad from Kaisercraft, sequins from Dollar Tree, embossing folder from Spellbinders, sentiment panel is a sticker I found in my stash.

Penny's Challenge #290: Anything Goes

Good morning stampers! I hope everyone's week is going well! Doing a little catch up blogging, as I keep starting these posts and not finishing/posting. Where is my poor brain? If you have seen it, PLEASE return! It seems I need it... ;)

Today's card features 3 Little Summer Girls from All Dressed Up. They are SO sweet! I especially love the sweetie in the hat.

The picture did NOT show my sketchy sky very well. I colored these beauties with Prismacolor Pencils, including sand and sky for their day at the beach. The sky was light and cloudy, and no matter what I did I couldn't make it pop in the photo. But, I DID do it! I was actually pretty pleased with how it turned out.

I followed a sketch for this card, VLV Sketch #1 for August 2016.

I've added some clouds across the background panel from my new Lawn Fawn die set (finally got it!), and some lace across the bottom just to show that you can be girly and still have fun in the sand too! ;)

So for my post today, I want to share my card for this week's challenge; where the challenge theme is....Anything Goes!

I used some beach sand I collected on a visit to my parent's house underneath his feet and in his bucket to provide some texture and authenticity. Sentiment is from Verve Stamps. The hearts are wooden laser cut pieces that I colored with my Copic marker.
