Do you remember this classic Stampin' Up set, Summer By the Sea? Many thanks to dirty sister, Stacey, for sending this set my way. I loved giving this girl an updated look with Copics. Can't you just feel the sea breeze?

Wow, wow, wow...what a beautiful card. Your choice of colors and the die cut frame are fantastic. The bow with the flower and flourish are stunning. Just lovely.

Great update on an "ancient" set! I snagged...quickly...my mom's three sets like this (Summer by the Sea, Seaside Sketches, and Sketches) because I just HAD to have them.
Your coloring is gorgeous. I'm going to have to get busy with all the images from these sets.

Such a lovely job coloring and shading her with Copics! I have this set and was thinking of using it for a Summer card swap. I think they will love it too! thanks for the inspiration. Hugs!!
