"Here comes the Summer"
When doing my contribution to the DT I decided I would step outside my comfort box and keep the distressing and layering to a minimum.
The glossy image, frame (which I embossed and inked) and little girls are all courtesy of Crafty Individuals.
The pennant stamp is from Rogue Redhead and the foliage is a mixture of Elusive Images and Wendi Rhodes stamps.
The trio of buttons echoed the colours and order of the beach huts in the framed image.
Distress inks used were:- Tumbleglass, Shabby Shutters and Mustard Seed. I masked my sun and the foliage was stamped using various inks.
I hope you can play along with us at the Craft Room with your interpretation of "Here comes the Summer". I would like to enter the following challenges with my card:-
