SENDING YOU SUNSHINE (1)

For this summer themed encouragement card, I used the Summer Friends stamp set from Pretty Pink Posh.

I started by die cutting all the elements for the scene. I used Lawn Fawn dies for this. I used the Simple Stitched Hilsside Borders and the Stitched Wave Borders. For the sky I ink blended with Picked Raspberry Distress Ink. For the sandy beach I used Vinatage Photo and splattered with Walnut Stain. The ocean was blended with Cracked Pistachio.

I stamped some of the images from the set and used Copic Markers to color them. Here are the colors I used:
Sand castle: E53 - E55 - E57/ R14 - R46
Bucket: Y06 - Y15/ E53 - E55 - E57/ R14 - R46
Ball: R14 - R46/ Y06 - Y15/ YR16 - YR68/ B12 - B14/ YG13 - Y07/ BV13 - BV17
Girl: E53 - E55/ YR21 - YR23/ R14 - R46
Unicorn: R14 - R46/ Y06 - Y15/ YR16 - YR68/ B12 - B14/ YG13 - Y07/ BV13 - BV17/ C0 - C2
Boy: E000 - E21/ E25 - E29/ Y06 - Y15/ YR16 - YR68/ B12 - B14/ YG13 - YG07

I fussy cut the images and assembled the card. I stamped the sentiment and added the panel onto a Peacock cardbase.

I added some white dots and highlights to some images, with a gelly roll pen. I also added Glossy Accents to the sunglasses of the boy.
