CAS[E] this Sketch #381

My last post held a clue for my CTS#381 card … act surprised... here's our Sketch:

 
I've been waiting for the opportunity to use
this MFT Hey, Sunshine! cutie again!  SO happy
I now have the dies, too!  Gotta love those sales!

 
Here are my Copics:
 

I stamped my sun-bather on Bristol because that is the paper I used for my pool.  A word about that:  wait for it to dry, or heat-set that ink before Copic coloring on Bristol! 

So!  Whether you fill your panel with pool water, or a sandy beach - we can't wait to see it!  See you in the CTS381 gallery!

  1. I learned from you how to do the "pool thing". What would we do without people willing to share their ideas. This little girl is doing what I would love to do right...that is, if you could get me into a bathing suit. Yikes!

  5. OK, I'm surprised...the pool water doesn't even look like the stencil used in your IB card, but it totally works for the water! And your little sweetie floating her Summer away at the pool looks so happy and content...maybe that's what I need?? A pool?? Course then I's need a swimsuit and we're not even going to go there!! I better just stick with stamping!! But anyway, your card is awesome and fits the sketch challenge perfectly!! Hugs. :0)

  8. What a great way to create the pool effect, it works a treat and what a lovely tan - if that was me I would be bright red! Did you hand write that sentiment, it is superb - if you did I am jealous of your neat writing xx

  11. Your pool water looks amazing. So realistic! Your sweetie on the floatie looks very cool, both literally and figuratively. Reminds me of growing up and spending my summer days in the pool in my backyard. My floatie for a lot a years looked like a chaise lounge that floated, complete with a cup rest. :) Great sentiment, too. Thanks for sharing!

  16. Oh Michele, this is fabulous! I love your stenciled pool water and stripe detail for that darling little girl. It brings me back to younger, trouble-free days and the smell of chlorine! I scrolled down to find that the last card I saw was your watermelon one. I sure do miss a lot, but I love to catch up when I can.
