Water Park Fun

Over at Splitcoast, the Teapot Tuesday challenge is Water Park Fun!  I was inspired by a card I saw on IG by Jennifran, so went to work to create!

 I used House Mouse images and fussy cut them out.  They are colored using Copic markers.  The cardstock is a SU in color from 2014 ish....  I used a stencil by Sweet Stamps and SU Pool Party ink. Then, I used Mermaid Lagoon to add color to the edge.  I layered it on a Kraft colored card, and used a Unity dotted stamp on the background.  I also added a SU beach ball and beach bucket.  The sentiment is MFT. I added a few leaves from a Cheery Lynn die. 

 The mice look pretty chill, and I wish I was at that waterpark! 

I'll add this House Mouse watermark card to the House Mouse and Friends challenge- AG

Alpha Q=Quilt and Christmas in July

 I dug through my pile of stamped and printed images and found this beautiful poinsettia to layer on my Q=Quilted DP background.

 The image was colored using Copics and embellished with Christmas sequins. The DP was cut into strips and layered over a base cardstock. A great way to use up scraps of DP. Stickles were added to the centers of the poinsettias. 

Thanks for stopping by!
