She is cute, thanks Ellen for the great idea and the instructions listed on your blog, what a great imagination.
I really liked the sitting at a bar in the tropics idea, so I sponged the top half and stamped, scored the brown bartop, embossed the green leaf dp with the new lattice folder and used the Island Oasis dp for her bathing suit, hat and purse. I didn't like the cut outs with the blush blossom paper, so I colored it by hand.....lots of coloring. Same with the hat that I put through the lattice folder, sponged the colors on. I used the cheers set for the drink and watercolored some tropical fruit drink in the same colors. I had to ask my husband if it looked like a real drink. lol. I do need a drink! lol.
I liked it so well I made 12 for our club swap tomarrow. Half way through I was asking myself why I was so ambitious with this one.......??? but I do think it's cute.
