Summer Sweetness...

Good morning!!  Here today bringing you a design sample for a new challenge that is happening over at the Loves Rubberstamps Challenge Blog!  This week's challenge is create anything with a Summer feeling to it.  Today I've used a Kenny K stamp as my focal point with a sentiment from the So Wordy set. 

I colored my image with Copics and Prismacolor markers.  My papers are from Bazzill and Basic Grey.  I used glossy accents on her sneakers and ice cream.

I doodled under the sentiment just a bit to make it pop.  I also used a bit of Washi Tape on the background for a little extra 'something'.

I hope you enjoy and come join us at Loves Rubberstamps!

Hello Friends!!  Today you'll for sure want to come join our new challenge over at the Loves Rubberstamp Challenge Blog!  This week's theme is for the special man in your life - the challenge is anything masculine.  With Father's Day right around the corner it's the perfect time to head on over an join us!

My creation today features a fantastic stamp from Kenny K called Super Hero.  It's a super fun stamp to color!!  I used some of my newly learned techniques that I received at my Copic Certification class and am pretty happy with the results!!

I colored and shaded and colored some more! I used new papers from Bazzill and a few smatterings here and there...some bright yellow, grosgrain ribbion, yellow baby brads, self-adhesive cork that I cut with my Stacking Stars Die-namics, some twine and a super fabulous star embellished stick pin sent to me by a dear crafty friend!

I used my Fishtail Flag STAX Die-namics to house my sentiment which is from Amy R Stamps from C.C. Designs - So Wordy Sentiments. 

I cannot wait to see what you come up with to share with us over at the Loves Rubberstamps Challenge Blog!!

See you over there!

Crafty Hugs!
