Summer Days

Hi again!  I'm back with a second post today!  A miracle, right? I had a bit of time yesterday before an appointment to do some coloring, so I took advantage of it!  I finished up the card today and wanted to share it.


My card base and mats are SU Strawberry Slush and the patterned papers are from the Webster's Pages Citrus Squeeze collection.  The sweet image is Willow With Strawberry Basket from Whiff of Joy.  I stamped her on MiC Blending Card and colored her with my Copics.  The sentiment is from Create With TLC.   A chevron-striped bow and a few Wild Orchid Crafts flowers finished my summery card.

Here is a close-up of the colored image:


I am entering my card in the following challenges:
Whiff of Joy Challenge #162 (add flowers)
Elisabeth Bell's World August/September Challenge (sizzling summer days)
Papertake Weekly (sketchie free-for-all; I used sketch #82 below)

Sketch 82:

Thanks for stopping by again!  I always appreciate your visits!

Enjoy the rest of your day!
