Happy Weekend!
Our Crazy challenge for today is to make a summer themed card or project. I just got the DARLING set from Flourishes called Kids Play and could not wait to use it! I have so many ideas for this set. I wish I had that much time but oh well, that's life!!
The base of this card is Kraft CS with a mat of blue from an old collection of DP from Memory Box {not sure of the name of it}. The next layer is True Black with newsprint DP from SU! on the left and Kraft on the right. The Kraft was punched using my SU! border punch and the newsprint was crinkled up and sponged with Crumb Cake ink. I stamped the sentiment on the newsprint paper using Black Memento ink. The image was stamped on another piece of DP from the Memory Box Collection using Black Memento ink. I colored the water using Copics, added a little Stardust Stickles to the swirls and then sponged the edges using Crumb Cake ink. I then clipped this on the burlap string using a small clothespin that I got at Michael's. I used some dimensionals to hold the image in place.
Be sure to check out what the Crazies have cooked up for this challenge!
