Whiff of Joy DT card

I received the new July Store Kit from Whiff of Joy yesterday and had to whip up a card right away.  I just love this image of Willow sunbathing (oh for a figure like that lol).  I did the sentiments together with Katharina and love how she has combined the sentiments with cute little images.

summer-2010-1a

I have used Basic Grey Sugar Rush papers (SO not my colours but love how they work so well with this image).  The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and are: Cherry blossoms, aster daisies and I have also stamped and coloured up a few little starfish from the kit and added those in with the flowers.  I chalked the sky using a cloud template – I think I prefer the soft chalk look (plus if I make a mess it’s easily rubbed out – not brave enough to go in with the inks lol)

summer-2010-1c

I’ve added tiny little sparkly pearly things (from Papermania) to the little starfish and also on the corners of the card.  The sentiment is also from the stamp kit.

summer-2010-1b

I’ve coloured the image with Copics and have used:

Skin: E11, E001, E00, E000, R20
Hair: E25, E31, E50
Bather & Towel:  R85, R83, R81, G21, G20
Sand: E31, E30, 0
Starfish: E07, E11

I’m entering this card is Charisma Cards challenge –  which is PINK and Your Next Stamp Challenge which is Flower Power

Thanks so much for stopping by today,

    Now that is some shading using Copics - couldn't believe my eyes when I saw Copics had given that result. AMAZI?NG. The rug is a beauty too.
