Summer Inspirations...

Today we are previewing lots of new summer-themed stamps and dies coming out at Papertrey Ink on May 15th at 10pm EST! First up, I've used Dress Up Dolls: Summer Fun. The little watermelon from the set was stamped multiple times on the tag, then I colored them in with Copic markers.
The navy gingham paper was added, a strip of red stripe washi tape, and an "enjoy" die cut and cherries from the Make It Market: Still Life Summer.

Next is a set called Keep Swimming, and the waves were die cut and stamped with What the Doodle: Waves.

I used the Enchanted Evening ink refill inker to paint the background (mixed with water), then die cut the waves and stamped them. I colored them in with Copics. The whale was cut from vellum and stamped and heat embossed.

INK: Enchanted Evening
PAPER: white
DIES: Keep Swimming, What the Doodle: Waves

The last one was really simple. I stamped the seashells first with Simple Seashells in Fine Linen and Classic Kraft inks, then ink blended the background with Aqua Mist, Fine Linen and Classic Kraft at the bottom to add color.  The sand was stamped with Sand Swatch. Then the die cut sentiment called Big Basics: Birthday was added over the top.



Three sequins finish it off.

Your whale card is my favorite today! Your coloring is fantastic. I just saw a whale cruising north along the San Diego coastline yesterday, so I can't wait to get this set.
