This card is going to be for my in-laws anniversary. I was looking for a "you make a terrific pair!" kind of sentiment can't find one (rolling eyes -> NEED to find that index!), got tired of trying to align the tiny letters of PTI's Simple Alphabet to spell it out myself, so I will probaby hand write it in.
I heat embossed the straps of the flip flops in SU's Winter White so that they'd stand out more, and added some tiny rhinestones and some copper colored glitter to the sand for some added sparkle.
Copics ROCK for coloring - even on kraft! I think I need more darker colors in my collection, the lighter shades don't show up as well on kraft.
Thanks for looking at my card! Have a good day!

So cute! I haven't tried copics on kraft, so that will be next on my list. I think you did a great job coloring and love the added sparkle to the strap & the sand!! I bet they'll love it!

So cute, wonderful idea.
Have you thought of printing on computer and punching out or cutting out the sentiment and layering onto the card? When I can't find the right sentiment that's what I do or print it out over cardstock and then embellish the rest of card.
