Hello Sunshine!!

Hello my crafty friends!!  Nicole here today to share a summer inspired card with you -

I had lots of fun creating the ink blended background using the Stamp Anniething Hybrid Inks in the following colors -

Blossom, Freesia and Carribean Sea

I used the Palm Tree Dies  and Land of Oz Dies to create the exotic island for Vanessa from Vanessa - Coconut Drink.  

I added a summer sentiment from a random stamp set in my stash.  I used my COPIC markers to color in Vanessa and tried to give her a hint of a tan ;) Thanks so much for stopping by today!!

No Lion, You're the Best!!

Hi there, Nicole here today with a card to share.  

I used the "Falling Hearts" stencil for my background along with "Blossom Hybrid Ink" .  I started by inking up my stencil from the top of the stencil and worked downward using a lighter hand as I worked towards the bottom of the stencil to create a variegated effect.  Afterwards I went over the entire thing with the ink blender again and trying to continue with the variegated effect.

The image and the sentiment are from "Zac-Lion-No Lion You're the Best".   I embossed the sentiment with white embossing powder and attached a white enamel heart next to it. 

Thanks so much for stopping by today!!
