With a surname like my friend Cindy's of Stamps, Paper, and Ink, what do you think I'd choose for my theme this month? hmmm - go ahead take a guess...
If you guessed fun at the beach, you're absolutely right!! lol I was so happy Cindy Beach accepted my invitation to play cards! Cindy is a fabulous card maker, and fellow Inspired By Challenge design team member! We get to play cards once a week - how fun is that?
Today is National World Oceans Day* and we are celebrating it with only one parameter: our cards must reflect something one might see, or an activity one might do, AT the beach, in the ocean, or a big old lake like the one near me!
I have pulled out one of my all-time favorite Waffle Flower combo sets: Sandy Toes, to make my card today. Time to show you, and Cindy, my card! I even pulled out my old Dymo label maker for a fun sentiment...
I really love to use the original Distress inks for water coloring, don't you?
The colors are so bright, even when watered down. I just stamp them onto an acrylic block and use an aqua painter to bring the color to my stamped, and heat embossed, images.
