Sneak Peek: Summer Surfboards

Hi friends, Angelica here excited to show off the new Summer Surfboards stamp set. This stamp set screams summer fun! I have a couple cards to share today using this stamp set, as well as a few other PPP products. 

I picked three boards to stamp onto white card stock. I used Copic markers to color them,  added white gel pen highlights, then cut them out with the coordinating dies. I used the new Triangle Stencil to make the background. I sprayed the back of the stencil with iCraft Pixie Spray for a good temporary hold, and attached it to a card front panel. I masked the top and the bottom of the stencil, then ink-blended MFT Summer Splash (Blue), Tickled Pink, and Lemon Chiffon inks in a rainbow order. I stamped the sentiment from the Summer Surfboards stamp set above the triangles, I added the card panel to a card base with foam adhesive. My last step was adding the surfboards with thin foam squares. 

For my next card, I mixed a few stamp sets together to make a beach scene. 

I picked the palm tree and sentiment from the new Tropical Birds stamp set, and the sandcastle and boy from the Summer Friends stamp set. I also picked one surf board to use. I stamped the characters out, and used Copic markers to color them, and a white gel pen to add highlights. To give the surfboard a distressed/beachy look, I used my Colorless Blender marker towards the middle of the board to lighten the colors. I used the coordinating dies for Summer Friends, Summer Surfboards, and Tropical Birds to die-cut the images. For the card front, I trimmed a panel of white card stock with a stitched rectangle die, then used Copic markers to hand draw a quick sand bar. I ink-blended a blue sky with Summer Splash ink, then glued the palm tree to the panel. I used different sizes of foam squares to add the rest of the images and a white heat-embossed sentiment, then attached it to a card base.

I hope these cards have given you ideas about the new release that is available on June 10th. Thanks for stopping by!
