Oh my - summer is in full swing here. And that always has me thinking of the Beach and fun times in the sun. So I hunted up Clara Lulu by Stamping Bella today. Here she is all decked out with her floaty and sparkly bathing suit.
I started by stamping her onto Bella's Bestest paper using Memento Tuxedo back ink and colored her up with copics. I also added Prismacolor pencil French Grey 90% to the darker areas of the inner tube and bathing cap for some depth shading. To help make her hair pop I added Black Glaze Pen. Couldn't pass up the opportunity to give her some divaness so she has sparkly glitter added to her suit and bathing cap border.
DP is October Afternoon Farmhouse that I bought eons ago and have hardly touched. The cardstock is Stampin' Up! Baja Breeze and Ridding Hood Red. The sketch was found while surfing the net and I can't even tell you where cuz hubby borrowed my laptop and searched over my page...grrrrr! Ah well I thought it looked like a neat beach sign so I added the sentiment to the bottom of the image as if this would hang from the driveway to your Beach house. I know, I have quite the imagination.
Ah well, I'm off to head into the mountains for a nice ride on the Harley - first of the season. I can't wait.
Enjoy your day and thanks for stopping by!

Super sweet and that could have been me last week in Cincinnati in the sweltering hot 'feels like 110, 113, and 120 degrees'! I've never felt heat like that! Loving that paper Cath!!
Wonderful card Cath! Clara looks so cool and refreshed after her swim! Well today is a much more bearable day after the 118 degee days we had.
Hope you had a great ride on the Harley!
