I got together with some fab crafty friends on Saturday and actually managed to produce a card. Usually I'm Miss Gabby and just enjoy the company with aspirations to finish something so I'm quite proud of myself--LOL.
Here I did a watercolor wash background using Zigs. Super easy to do and dried quickly as I used a watercolor brush very lightly. I emphasized the sand using tiny gold dotty washi and placed those cute flipflops like they are walking into the scene. The banner I created using my new MFT Stitched Banner die. Soooooo cute.
Oh! Notice how "relax" appears in bold? All you need to do is ink up your sentiment and press a bit harder when stamping where you want that effect. This is using VersaFine. I don't know if it works with other inks. Let me know!
