Let's Chill

Hello there! Did you have a good weekend? A lot of friends are heading off to CHA and I'm hoping to see more sneaky peeks of lots of new goodies and "must haves" while they're there, and after they return!


Here's a card that I made for the current theme at Hero Arts, which is Summertime & Parties. I used the Let's Chill stamp set (that I was searching for and finally found) together with Reverse Wonky Rectangles.


The little bird, coconut tree, and tropical drink were colored with Prismacolor pencils and Copics. Isn't he too cute? I used Glossy Accents on the bird's sunglasses and the coconuts, too. I tied a bit of twine on the bottom, added faux stitching around the edges, and the sentiment is an oldie from Hero Arts.

Hope you're off to a great week! Thanks, always, for stopping by!

Stamps: All Hero Arts
Cardstock: Paper Accents
Ink: Memento, Versafine
Other: Copics, Prismacolor pencils, Nestabilities, twine, dimensional adhesive
