Summer fun!

Happy Friday! I finally start my summer vacation today, four weeks of peace and quiet and I am pretty sure that is what inspired my card for today :)

I really wanted to ink up these sweet new elephants by Mama Elephant not sure where I would end up with my design. I stamped all of my images and coloured them with my Copics and used the accompanying dies.

I decided to pair them with the new My Favorite Things pool die and make a fun little scene. I die cut the pool from a piece of Neena solar white and another "pool" from Simon Says Stamp Sea Glass cardstock.  I felt the sea glass was a little pale, so I blended some Salty Ocean and added a Hero Arts Waves stencil and added darker blending. 

I put the "water" aside and ink blended my clouds and my lawn and added some silver gel pen to the pool edge. I foam taped my panel to my card base and added the "water" inside the top panel laying it flat to the card base.

I glued my elephants and stamped three sentiments that I added to the card. To finish off, I added some white gel pen detail, glossy accents and some red hearts.
