Make a splash, again...

TGIF! 

Here's another card that I made for the latest clear release at Sweet November Stamps. These best friends from the new Water Park Party set are having a blast slipping and sliding down all of the twisty water park slides. It looks like they have a friendly competition to see who can create the biggest splash into the pool! I borrowed one of the sentiments from the Sunny Smiles clear set to complete this playful scene. I hope this sunny, happy card brings a smile to your day.  :)

Have a good one!

Have a sunshiny day...

Hi there!

I've got one more summer at the lake scene to share, using more cute critters from the
Lakewood collection
at Purple Onion Designs. This time I paired the
Pier and
Boat House backgrounds together and added one of the mice from the Max Chilling and Floating set along with Ollie Swims and the bear from the Riley, Oliver and Boo Go Float Tubing set. I love the little shark fin on Ollie's vest and can just imagine he is about to play a prank on Max. The evening glow of a setting sun is proof that they've all been been enjoying a long summer day together. The sentiment is another from the Summer Days sentiment set and I stamped it in a blue ink that coordinates with the cool lake water.  ;)

Laters!

Make a splash...

Hello friends! 

This fun pool scene uses the two digital stamp freebies that are our current shopping incentive at Sweet November Stamps. Any digital stamp order placed through July 20th will also receive Water Park Tracy absolutely FREE. If your digital order is $10 or more then you will also get Water Park Tommy for FREE as well. Once the offer ends on the 20th, these two will go into the vault until they are officially added to the store next summer. As you can see, they perfectly coordinate with the new Water Park Party and Sunny Smiles clear sets that just released, adding even more possibilities to your poolside scene building. Rather than sliding down a water slide I stamped the little girl from the Water Park Party set in grey ink so the softer line work would make her look like she is swimming beneath the water. All together they create such a happy scene. So don't miss out on the opportunity to add these cuties to your digi collection before they disappear.  :)

Later gators!

Hey, hey! 

I've got another card to share today using more cute stamps from the new Summertime Adventures clear release at Sweet November Stamps. These Fairwee Sun Bathers are spending a day at the beach soaking up the sunshine. Just beyond the sand dunes a stand of palm trees sway thanks to some creative stamping of the deserted island in the Yo Ho Ho Background Builder set. If there's ever been a more magical day at the beach then I haven't seen it.  ;)

There be dragons...

 


Good morning! 

The new Summertime Adventures clear release at Sweet November Stamps added two more adorable dragons to our year long Birthstone Dragon series. First we have the July Ruby Dragon strolling along with a giant ruby. I'm sure he is heading to his cave ready to add this precious gem to his ever growing treasure trove. I also used one of the mini scenes that are part of the Cave Dwelling Background Builder to help create an idyllic lake and forest off in the background.



Next, we find the August Peridot Dragon looking absolutely adorable as she clutches her precious peridot close to her chest. Her big eyes are full of wonder at the treasure she has found and you will be hard pressed to find a happier dragon anywhere in the land. Again, I stamped another of the mini scenes from the Cave Dwelling Background Builder, this one adding mountains and a river in the distance. Such a pretty place for this pink cutie to call home. I hope you love these newest additions as much as I do!  :)

 Have a great week everybody!
