Tammy, thanks for filling in for Beth today. You picked a winner. Barbara, your gallery is amazing. I had soooo many I wanted to use. Finally narrowed it down to this one.......details....
Things I changed:
1. Obviously I aged the sunbathing beauty a tad. hehe Plus I moved the umbrella so you can see her beautiful face!
2. Flipped it so she is facing the other direction.
3. Not as many layers.
4. Left off the sentiment because I'm not sure you all would want to hear what Edna is saying to the cabana boy. Might be a little racy. She is "drinking"you know. hehe
Briefly, made the bg dp using Mutnik square. I also added all these punched green circles that you can't see. Didn't realize Edna was going to take up so much room!
Stamped, clear ep Edna, colored with copics. Cut out around top part of her, sponged bottom. Put on a panel that I had punched the MS fence, sponged and doodled. Layered all this on blue cs.
Drew the umbrella on vellum, colored with sharpies and added glitter with glitter pens, cut out. Stamped, sponged, glittered and popped up the sun.
The gorgeous blue jewels are from Peggy-Sue. Thank you so much my dear!
Put this all on a kraft card that I doodled on....Hope you like it. It was fun getting to be creative again since vacation.......TFL :0)
