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.

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!

Life's a beach

Hi there, have you already seen the new cool release from Paper Nest Dolls? 

I couldn't resist surfer Owen and had to make a summerly, tropical-influenced card. 

With some design paper in the background, a few die cutted leaves that I colored with my Copic Markers, a wonderful beach scene was created.

Summer Lovin'

Howdy y'all today I'm going to share with you Bikini Ellie

 from The Paper Nest. I thought she would be great for 

summer time. Bikini Ellie is SO dang cute. I colored her 

last month and could not wait to show her to y'all.

now was the task to narrow down all my 500 ideas. 

(that's really hard to do)

I have all these things run though my head that will

look so cute like do  use beach paper, stickers, beach

seen, something from my cameo? this is how it goes 

with every project, I can never make up mind mind 

on what to do, and put it off till the last minute and then

it comes out bad.

I ended up doing this card twice, I hope I got it right the

 second time. I used lots of digi stamps. I always try

to create something a bit different not the same old thing everytime.

I made a step card and layered

it with beach background, sand and waves.

I used my cameo cut everything out, used bright and light colors together.

I hope you like it, come back soon.

Here is the first pic. I took a bunch so you can see all

the glitter and dimensions 

upclose are the wave and fishy.

side view so you can see the step card.

 Here is bikini Ellie she looks a bit dark in this pic.

This is the sun I cut out and used my pens on my 

cameo.

I hope you can see how cute it is. I know the pics 

are kinda dark my light broke and have not had 

a chance to replace it.

Don"t forget to go check out The Paper Nest Store

and The Paper Nest Blog

we have lots of things happen!
