Well, I guess I am longing for the days of summer....
This is a big card...7 1/4 by 5 1/2 - and difficult to create a layout to accomadate the main image.. at least for me.
I love the idea of two bears sunning themselves on a beach, applying suntan lotion to their fur!!
A lot of colouring - but it was fun. I find that when I have this many colours in an image, it is really difficult to find paper that highlights the image without taking away from the main image....
Yakkity yakkity... ( sun tan lotion on Panda done with a signo pen and covered with crystal effects ) Hope you can see that.)
Fun card to make. Thanks for looking!

Deborah, this image is so cute...and it made me laugh! Your coloring on those fuzzy bears is amazing! You made them look so fuzzy and soft! Good idea using the white signo to highlight...excellent, my friend!

these bears look like they tried to go swimming a little to early. Don't think the water has warmed up enough. LOL. Great job of coloring for this gorgeous card.
