Summer Time Fun

Hello!  I was inspired by the Inspiration Palette Challenge J1917 shown below from The House That Stamps Built in making this card.  I created my background with Broken China Distress ink on a panel of watercolor paper.  I stamped Repeat Impressions stamp Kayaker on clear velum with Versamark and heat embossed with Clear EP.  I colored the image with Copics using colors from the inspiration photo and then trimmed it.  I attached this to the background with Stick It Adhesive.  Love how the Kayaker merges into the "water".  Finished with a Repeat Impressions sentiment stamped in Memento Rhubarb Stalk ink and a Kraft card base. I think I captured all the colors in the inspiration.

Sports Birthday Card

 Hello!  I recently made this Pop-Up card for my great-nephew's 6th Birthday.  I cut the elements with the Cameo using a Silhouette file.  Digital Patterned Papers were printed and used with Red Cardstock from stash.  Added a Gold Star covered with glitter glue and preprinted "6" die cuts.  Happy Birthday words were cut with Cheery Lynn Dies.  Some of balls were colored with Copics  and some were cut from colored CS.
