Summer Fun

Photo Details

Poster: BarbieP

I love my window die, and I had to play along today on this week's WT380 challenge - Windows & Doors.

For my scenery, I used a very old stamp by SU. It is a stamp from their Summer By the Sea Set. I colored the little girl with watercolor pencils and used my DOVE blender pen to blend the colors. For the sky I used chalk so I could leave part of the cardstock white imitating white wispy clouds.

Sure had fun with this challenge, Thanks for taking a closer look, and I hope you like it

The "inside" is just as charming as the "outside", Barb. What a beautifully done card and the coloring on your girl image is exceptional.
