Lily at the Beach: Sneak Peek Day #1

It's sneak peek time with Pink Cat Studio!! This time Lily is headed for the beach! These images are absolutely adorable and I'm sure you'll agree when you see them. My first card is of Lily sitting on a turtle. I had so much fun making this card and being able to use bold colors for the Summer. My card is based off of a sketch from Mojo Monday a couple of weeks back. As I was making this card and piecing it together, I decided to create a 3D layer for the turtle's shell. So, I stamped him twice and cut the top of his shell, and popped it higher. I also popped up his head and feet for another added effect.

After I added the embellishments, it still seemed unfinished so I added some crystal effects to the shell of the turtle and made it look shiny as if he were glistening in the sun or shall I say sun bathing in the sun.

My next image is of Lily with an Inner Tube. She is ready to jump in the water for some fun in the sun!! Don't these stamps make you want to plan your next summer vacation? To create the background of Lily, I used my copic airbrush system that you can get over at 7 kids college fund. I used yellow for the background of the sky and brown for the bottom where the sand would be. I have also purchased my copic sketch pens from 7 kids college fund too.

I think lately I have been in the mood to pop images off the card, I really do love the 3 dimensional look but just had to make a little extra time to cut it out and mount it. It really does not take that long, but one of the things that could be time consuming is cutting very small objects. This photo shows that I have cut and mounted the inner tube around Lily's waist and I have added crystal effects to this as well for that plastic appeal.

Stay tuned for another sneak peek as well as the release day for these stamps on Thursday.
