Hi everyone! I hope you are enjoying your summer so far. I am so excited to share with you my first post as a guest designer for the month of July with Faery Ink. First off I would love to take the opportunity to thank Amanda for creating such awesome images for us to use.
So for the month of July at the Faery Ink Facebook Group the challenge is Fun in the Sun. We could choose any summer themed image for our finished project. My first idea when I seen this challenge is I want to do a circle card and make it look like a beach ball. Ha yep the beach ball was a bit harder than I thought of course I was over thinking it but the base got done. The image I decided to work with was Beach ball Arielle, she is to adorable. Here is the finished piece and I will give you some information about it below.
Arielle was colored with my mix of different colored pencils, the brands that are in my mix are Prang, Prismacolor, Artist's Loft and Design Spectracolor.
The card base is made with two circle card stocks from Recollections, with the three sections of the ball done with yellow, pink and teal card stock.
The waves are from a pack of stickers I found by Recollections.
The statement that I used is from a Unity Stamp Set called Hello Summer. I stamped it in Tim Holtz Distressed ink in Evergreen Bough with the edges done with Spun Sugar and Scattered Straw.
I also used Ranger glossy accents on the sun glass's lens to make the shiny.
I so love the whole look of this card and plan on doing this one again with a few different hair and bikini colors. Comment below if you would like to see any color combos.
Be on the lookout for two more posts for the other inspirational pieces I completed this month. Thanks for stopping by and I appreciate any comments.
