Goodbye to Summer




Hi everyone and Happy Tuesday! :) I have a super quick posting for you today as I have to get to work early for a meeting. It's finally starting to get cooler here so sadly, it's time to say goodbye to summer :( At least we have the beauty of fall to look forward to, even if it means I'll have to dig out my sweaters :) For my card today, I decided to ink up a sweet summery image with which to say goodbye to summer with. This particular image is illustrated by Victoria Case and is available HERE from Susana's Custom Art and Card Design. I colored the image with copics and then I shaded around the image with SU's Bashful Blue ink. Next I created my card base out of SU cardstock. My DP is from MME. For some finishing touches I added a bow (tied with my Bow Easy), Primas, roses from Wild Orchid Crafts, and dew drops. What do you think?

Well, that's it from me today. Thanks so much for stopping by and have a wonderful day! :)
