Summer & Sea Collection card

Saturday was happy mail day for me :-) i my new Summer & Sea Magnolia stamps, a hudge package from Donalda - she helped me out with white CS - and some Nestabilities arrived. Donalda has some blog candy up for grasp.. if you like the Die cuts i used on my cards (like the swirls).. check it out she is giving some of them away. I mounted all my stamps and started coloring in.. so this morning when i saw on Bea's blog that she had made a super sketch Ismaki. I was almost there :-) I just had to do some cutting and sweing to finish my card. Check out Bea's personal blog... she has in her sidebar some fabulous sketches posted. On this card i did not use any Prima flowers on purpose. I wanted to show that you do not need big mbellishments to make a card nice and just let the image shine. Just a few simple pieces of hardware were used and i like it! This way i believe this card could be also sent to a male.


Stamps: Magnolia Summer Sea Collection 2008 (picket fence is from a previous line)Sentiment: Amuse Elzybells line
Paper CS: Stampin up (Fall Flowers) and Bazzill CS
Embellishments: Stampin up hardware Hodgepodge, Nestabilities (for tag and circle), narrow olive poly twill ribbon
Coloring: Copics, Prismacolor Pencils, White gel pen, Twinkeling H2O

die Karte ist wieder mal ein Traum, wunderschön. Ein Sahnestück.

PS. Mit den Supracolor Aquarellstiften bin ich super zufrieden, bin total happy damit. Danach nochmal mit den Twinklings drüber, gibt einen tollen Effekt.
