I'm back today as I received a top 3 placement over on the Addicted To Stamps Blog, #174 Lots of Flowers with this card:-
They very kindly asked me to be a Guest DT for the Challenge #176 - CAS Summer Card..
I was thrilled to have a top 3 placement but for them to ask me to be a GDT too I jumped at the chance LOL!
Now here in Australia it's winter and I would love to see the summer sunshine, but alas, I shall just have to look at the card I created and dream LOL!
So as it's a stamping blog/challenge I opted for the stamp set "Surfs Up"by Simon Says Stamp, and here's my card
I started by stamping the circle image 3 times, and using a stiched circle to die cut it out, the first image I used as my sky, which I created with Distress ink and the mini cloud stencil from MFT.
The second image, was my beach-hill, that I heat embossed with hero Arts - Sand Embossing powder..(and yep it really looks like sand!) My third image was the sea, which I used distress oxide inks and nuvo glitter drops for a bit of sparkle.
I Copic coloured a few images from the set and placed them behind the sand and the sea layers, which I have popped up on one and two layers of foam tape.
Stamped the sentiment from the same set and matted it on black card stock just like the main focal image!
Hope you like my card, and you pop over to Addicted to Stamps and join in with the new challenge #176 - CAS Summer
I'm also entering this into Sweet Stampin Challenge - You are my Sunshine
