Summer Days

Here’s my second card this week showcasing the host set, Summer Days. It was very relaxing coloring the images in this set.

First, I stamped the image in Sahara sand and then colored it. I used dark granny apple green on all of the stamped image lines (apart from the trunk and girl of course) and then used the light one to blend it and fill in the rest of the image. Then I did the same on the wood using dark and light soft suede. The little girl was colored using light mango melody, light night of navy, ivory and light melon mambo.

The sentiment is the same as Wednesday’s from the Forever Fern set since there aren’t any sentiments in the Summer Days set. This time I die cut it using the Stitched Shapes Framelits dies after stamping in melon mambo. I mounted the main image on a soft suede mat and then adhered to a whisper white card base, popping up the sentiment with dimensionals.

If you’d like to see me making this, I do a Facebook Live on Sundays at 11am EST on @MyElegantCards. I make all three cards that I blog during the week.
