OK, so here is my VERY first card made with the BRAND NEW TOTALLY STAMALICIOUS STAMPS... these will be available September 15, 2009.
I had stamped this image in the center of my paper and had colored the body. Along comes Hailey (DD) and says color his tank top red...so I did, THEN she says, "He looks like a lifeguard!" LOL Well THAT is where the inspiration for this card came from.... HAILEY!!!! HAHAHAH
SO I got out my trusty ruler and fine point sharpie marker and go to work....Drew me a pool, yep I did!
The everything colored with Copics, the grass I added flock, the sidewalk I added gray spica pens, the pool I added some pearlescent water colors and then the clear stuff...OH YES, it's called Glossy Accents. So shimmery and wet looking....
Brads were a giftie from my BFF Kate, lil life guard bouy thingies.... TOO CUTE.... Paper is some OLD Daisy D's that I found in my stash after sitting on this card for awhile cuz my first attempt I wasn't pleased with there was just "something" not right..Then along comes Hailey and says, "Ummm, That paper SO doesn't match mom!" A-HA! I didn't think so but was wondering if it would "work" obviously not....welll, here is the end result and I got the A-ok from Hailey! ;)
