Tropical Treasure

Happy Sunday!  Tomorrow is Labor Day in the US and I am happy to have an extra day off!  I have been very productive this weekend, lots of crafting when usually I only get a teensy bit in.  I am a slow crafter. 

Speaking of slow, I have a super fun card (that took me quite a while to make) to share today.  Still getting my summer crafting vibes out. 


Isn't it just a fun scene!  I love how it all came together to create this tropical paradise.  I used three different Waffle Flower Stamp sets for this creation- Fun in the Sun, P-arr-ty Time and Make Waves.  I also used distress inks my Blending Buddy, Stitched Frame Dies, New Leaf embellishments and Starfish Wish embellishment. The rest is Copics and fussy cutting. 


I am not sure I can express how much I love this, bright and happy.  To make it, I used distress inks on the background.  I blended them and then added white pen on the water shoreline.  I added glossy accents on the fish air bubble. then I placed my colored images on the scene with glue and foam tape. 


Here is a close up of the mouse pirates.  I feel like they are happy, about to get their treasure and drinking tasty tropical drinks.  I mean, what else is there to want/need? 


I hope you like this card and thank you for visiting!
