Hello Summer

Today I decided to pull out some images I received in a swap and color. I haven't used my copic markers in a while and thought it was time to pull them out and have some fun. I don't know about you but coloring makes me feel like a kid again, lol. It used to be a favorite activity of mine when I was little and I still love it today. Guess I will never grow up! After coloring my images I highlighted some areas with my smooch paint to make them sparkle, added a little rhinestone earring to my cute little girl and cut her out and used stampin dimensionals to make her pop off the card.



The card base is Pretty in Pink cardstock with a layer of Tempting Turquoise cardstock. These colors look so great together, nice and bright for a great summer day. I used the Tiny Tags stamp set for the sentiment and the matching tag punch. The tag needed some sparkle so I added a little pink rhinestone to the flower and then outlined the tag with my smooch paint.

What do you think of the ribbon? White ribbon is awesome because you can make it any color you want, awesome right! Add some pink ink and you have pink ribbon, love it! Give it a try. Not sure what to do, just take lay your ribbon on the ink pad and hold it down with a sponge dauber, then pull. Keep repeating until you get the color you want. Make sure to do both sides of the ribbon to get an even color. If you don't have a sponge dauber, use a sponge, or your finger, if you don't mind it getting colored, lol.

Hope you all had a great holiday!!! Thanks for visiting!

Happy Stamping and Scrapping,
Ronda
