Summer arrives



imageHappy summer. Friday was the last day of school in our county, and I heard kids running around yelling "summer's here." This cute little guy in a pool (from Bugaboo) seems like the perfect image for a summer card. The sentiment is from Purple Onion; source of flip flops unknown.  All the images are colored with pencils, and there is Glossy Accents on the snorkeling mask.
The layout is from Sweet Sketch Wednesday. The color palette is from the Bugaboo color/photo inspiration challenge.

This card is for these challenges:
 
Bugaboo Catch the Bug Challenge –May color challenges
Clear it out – summer fun with brads
Cuttlebug Mania – use ribbon
Sweet Sketch Wednesday – sketch #55
Word Art Wednesday #184 -- anything goes
Pixie's Snippet Playground 178/179 -- use Snippets (all the papers on this card were snippet)

  9. This is totally cute! It reminds me of playing in those backyard kiddie pools as a kid. We always dragged ours to the bottom of the slide.

Stencils and diecuts

  I've had the idea for this card for a while, but I finally got around to making it this week.  I started by stenciling the stone fence...
