The My Sunshine set
certainly says summer to me, and as I am someone who loves summer, I wanted to
combine the stamps with papers that also make me think of summer. Surf’s Up seemed
like the natural choice. It’s got fun colors and images. I think the sun image
from the stamp set is fun, too.
This is what I came up
with:
I made a larger card than I
usually do (7" x 5") because I wanted to make use of the people and graphic elements in
the paper. Popping up the ring of the sun as well as the Zip Strip and
sentiment added some punch. The Epoxy Bubbles brought out a little more of the
blues. Here is the complete supply list:
