Wow, I can't believe it is Wednesday already! The kids were off on Monday and then yesterday, they were off again due to an ice storm we got. All is good today though!!
Here is a card I made based on today's sketch challenge at SCS ~
The base of my card is Select White with a mat of Early Espresso. The light blue and floral yellow patterns are actually the front and back of Echo Park's Walk in the Park Sunshine paper. The boat panel is from Echo Parks Little Boy Awesome Dots paper. For the top panel, I used cloud paper from American Crafts, Skyline Park glitter paper and added waves that I punched using my Fiskar's wave punch. The waves were layered using dimensionals and I added Stardust Stickles to the tops. The sun is from Verve's Relax set (LOVE this set) and was stamped on Lava Chocolate Echo Park CS using Early Espresso ink, cut out and then stamped using the Big Ships and Small Ships text strip from Text Objects again using Early Espresso. I added Orange Peel Stickles to the center of the sun and mounted it using dimensionals. The little ship is also from the Text Objects set and was pieced using the same yellow floral paper and for the hull, another pattern from the Little Boys Collection.
The final step was to use my Early Espresso marker and just ink up the one sentiment, stamp it on Select White CS, cut it out, adhered it and then added a SU! clear heart button and yellow floss. Here i s a closer look ~
Thank you so much for stopping by and I'll be back tomorrow since I already have a card done to post!!! LOL!!!

Lynda,
This is so bright and cheery! I just love your design and all the details, especially the Stickles on the sun. Makes me really need to add this stamp set to my "wish list"! Thanks for the inspiration.
