Make A Splash {MFTWSC77}!



Hi everyone! Happy Wednesday!  It's week 77 of our WSC Getting Sketchy (June 20-June 26). We have another fabulous sketch for you this week...meet MFTWSC77!


This was SO fun to create!  For my card today I pulled out the ADORABLE Pure Innocence Make A Splash and I colored her with Copic Markers.  Her bathing suit was paper pieced with the same papers I've used on my card, Nostalgia from My Minds Eye.  You'll see why I chose this pattern a bit later in my post (grin).  I cut out the panel and layered it with the Rectangle STAX 1 Die-Namics and Rectangle STAX 2 Die-Namics.

It's a bit hard to see but I did add a border using the Notched Border Die-Namics, which I LOVE.  The card base is Kraft and I used Sno Cone for the main panel.  I added two Sparklets to one of the tilted panels for shine.


Here is a closeup of this little bathing beauty:


I used my beloved Hibiscus Die-Namics to create the flower and leaves.  I added a Sparklet in the center for a bit of bling.  This also anchors my sentiment panel, cut using the First Place Award Ribbon Die-Namics.  I stamped "Make A Splash" onto it...love that!


For the inside I added some more patterned paper and another border cut with the Notched Border Die-Namics.  I added another sentiment, "You're Pure Sunshine".


And here is my inspiration for this card...my own little bit of Sunshine, my Avery.  She is already 21 months old!  How did that go SO fast? 


Quite a bathing beauty isn't she?  I {heart} this little princess.


Here are the Copic Markers I've used on my card:


And here are the Die-Namics I've used on my card:
