This was a fun challenge. To do a summery card in only 3 layers and no DP.
I knew immediately that I wanted to use my new Rubber Necker stamp.
I stamped the main image and watercolored it and then added the sun, sand and sky. If I could find anything here in moverville I would have probalby tried to put some fine sand or sand coloured glitter onto the beach but alass it was not to be!!!
I layered the main panel onto purely pomegranate ( in moverville the only easily accessed colours of papers are the current incolours!) and then put it onto a River Rock CB that I had first stamped with the wide stripe backgrounder from CHF because I thought that it looked like the ticking Martha woulc say to use to make your own beach chair. I wanted to use the yellow sheer ribbon to fo with the yellows in the image but it was a quite large main panel and I didn't know where that ribbon could fit and then I realised that most women are self consious of some part of themselves and these ladies have sort of bigger bottoms so I used it as a lovely cover up for them. To tell the truth one of the things that attracted me to this stamp was the fact that these beach beauties had very real women shapes - I liked there lovely bottoms!!!
I hand wrote the sentiment. The inside says "...you deserve it!)
Thanks for a great challenge. Hope you like my curvy girls!!! TFL

Very nice summer scene! Do I see a *topless* sunbather here? I thought this was a PG site! LOL Great coloring going on here, love the striped dp bg. TFS :0) P.S. My bad, I thought the ribbon was on the hat, until I realize maybe she has on a halter top! LOL

LOL!
No sorry girls there is no topless sunbather here! The gal in the middle has on a one piece suit that ties behind her neck and the girl on the right has got bottoms on but she is very self concsious and asked that the bow be put on top of her flowered bikini bottom!
