Good times...

Hello, hello!

I'm up on the TGF blog today and I'm still having way too much fun playing with the Beach digi set that released at the beginning of the month. This time I paired some of the beach elements with the Summer Dress Up digi set as the main focus. Specifically, it was the little ice cream cart that I built the scene around, though it transformed into a shaved ice cart thanks to the cute little cups in the Beach set. The Anya who has already gotten her strawberry/peach icee and is heading down to the beach is also from the Summer Dress Up set while the cutie still at the stand is from the Backs 3 set. I began coloring the girls first, adding various prints to their clothing for extra cuteness. Then I started dividing up the background. The shaved ice cart would need a hard surface to roll on so I colored in a sidewalk beneath it. From the sidewalk down to the bottom of the card I filled that space in with sand. Above the sidewalk I added a narrow strip of green before the row of small buildings off in the distance. From the buildings up it was all blue skies and sunshine. I really like how this sets these two friends into a more urban scene that is still very laid back summer cool. The little sentiment from the Pool Party clear set is just the finishing touch I needed to call this card complete.  :)

Laters!
