For today's card I went with an image and a sentiment from the "Summer Drinks" clear stamp set. My background paper is craft card stock and I stamped images from that same set and embossed them with Detail White embossing powder. I colored the image with Copics and cut it out with a SB Labels Nine die. While it was still in the die I traced around the inside edge with a gold uni-ball pen and then sponged with SU's Bashful Blue ink. The sentiment was stamped on a SB Grommet Tag and accented with SU pink ribbon and brads. I thought some little silver dots would add to the scene and also go with the little Fish charms that I won from a HM challenge back in December. Aren't they cute? I'm actually traveling back home today so I have pre-scheduled this post and I hope it appears when it is suppose to. Have a great fun-filled day today. Thank you for stopping by.
