I clear embossed the word fun with my discontinued Noah Alphabet stamps from Studio Calico on some watercolor paper. I thinned out four yummy colors of distress inks (Picked Raspberry, Wild Honey, Mowed Lawn and Peacock Feathers) and brushed them across the word for the resist effect.
I was going to leave it as is but it looked a little naked, so I stamped the word "have" with some small peg alpha stamps and the card was done.
Have fun in the sun. Ha! And you do need the sun to make a rainbow, right?
Thanks for stopping by! I hope it's sunny wherever you are and you have a fun-tastic weekend--especially if you're attending the Summer CHA!
SUPPLIES:
