HAPPY Thursday everyone !! 

I have a card to share with you today . 

I had started it awhile ago .

I was just able to finish it today . 

For this card I used 

the Soak Up The Fun stamp set 

from My Favorite Things . 

It is such a great summer themed set . 

 I colored in these cuties using Copic markers . 

 For the waves and the background I used Distress Oxide Inks and the regular inks as well . 

 It is also a pull tab card that moves the whale along the waves . 

I hope you enjoy this card I created to share with you today !! 

Thank you so much for stopping by ! 

Wishing you a super Blessed day !!

Happy Day 4 

of our 

Craftin Desert Divas 

July 2017 

Release Sneak Peeks .

For today we are sneak peeking 

the fun and cute 

March On stamp set . 

I can not tell you how many ideas I have for this set , 

I have two other cards started on my craft table with these 

cuties.  For this card , I decided to do something a little 

bit different (just a bit ,lol ) . 

I wanted to watercolor the images in . 

I used my Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers. 

 For the background I used my Kuretake watercolors . 

I had lots of fun creating this card . 

I hope you like the different look , I usually go for my Copics. 

I am continuing to practice with the watercolor markers . 

Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by .
