Lazy Days of Summer Card

 

Hello Crafty Friends! Happy Summer! It's Laurie here! I am sharing my Lazy Days of Summer Card as my Design Team Inspiration Card for Paper Nest Dolls using the digital stamp Surfer Emma. When you buy her, you get 2 digital stamps for the price of 1! Surfer Emma with and without sunglasses.

Lazy Days of Summer Card

I can’t believe that summer is almost over! Emma and I are going to miss those lazy days of summer sunshine!

For my card, I had fun colouring Emma with my Copic markers. I created a summer vignette for my cutie with the surfing van and a palm tree sticker poking out from the circle. The surfing van was a svg file that I downloaded and cut out on my Silhouette Cameo machine. The svg file comes as a box card, but I only wanted the van. Easy enough to separate the file into the pieces that I needed. It was so fun creating the van to match my coloured image with the hot pink. Who wouldn’t love to drive a hot pink surfer van!

Since it’s a beach card, of course, I needed water, sand, and sun! So, my paper was perfect for two of those elements! The sun and sunshine die cuts completed the other element. I love the sentiment “The lazy days of summer” which sum up my card perfectly and matches the purple colour of her bathing suit!
