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!

Oh Deborah, how wonderfully terrific is this card! Dont you just love it, because I certainly do! That stamp is just about as cute as cute can get! I'll do the beach anyday if you could promise I'd meet the likes of these guys! Way too wonderful. Kudos.
