Hello!!
Today I've actually got a card to share! hahaha! I made this long card awhile ago but I just recently got it back and now I'd like to share it with you all. I hope it makes you smile and think of fun times at the beach building sandcastles with your brother(s) and sister(s)...
The night before the last Carson RS show I received the new summer keiki stamps from Sister Stamps newest release, thanks for the fast service Norm!. I was beyond excited to get them. So much so that I stayed up into the wee hours of the night to make this card. It features 4 of the 7 stamps that depicts a fun time at the beach. I was inspired by Jenny's card
here. From left to right:
Halia,
Kaumaka,
Sandcastle &
Aulii. I decided to do a panel of Polaroid pictures with each image having their own spotlight but looking like they are right next to each other. All colored with Copics. The sentiment is from an older TGF stamp set that is retired. I also added the wooden starfish and sand dollar. They add a nice touch to the beach scene I was trying to create. They also help cover up mistakes! hahaha! Here are some close ups of each picture. First up is the adorable
Halia.

Isn't she sweet? I love the wooden starfish, it adds that something special without being overwhelming. Next up is
Kaumaka and the
Sandcastle.

This makes me smile, because all you see is joy on Kaumaka's face as he's building his sandcastle. I masked Kaumaka and using my Misti I stamped the
sandcastle in the spot just slightly behind him. Again adding the wooden sand dollar was just a fun touch and it's also covering a boo-boo. On the last panel is the sweet
Aulii..

Here's another angle of the sand dollar. Love it! I kept the coloring the same for all the kids, sand and sky. The orange and white Aloha print is leftover from a project, so don't know the brand name. The base of the card is a length wise piece of white cardstock. I think I have one more project to share from this release and it's another postcard featuring
Hiilei. I'll save that one for next time. Thanks so much for stopping by!!
