How about a summer card today? Lemonade, sunglasses, flip-flops--sounds like summer vacation! For stamps I used PaperTrey Ink's Day at the Beach set, along with Polka Dot Basics and Background Basics: Text Style.
Cardstock is Aqua Mist, Raspberry Fizz, Hibiscus Burst, Ocean Tides, and Stampers Select White. Ink is Tuxedo Memento Black, Aqua Mist, Lemon Tart, Summer Sun, and Fresh Snow. Buttons are PTI's Hibiscus Burst, Lemon Tart, and Aqua Mist Vintage Buttons.
Copic Markers are Y21, Y26, BG11, RV17, and 0. For the icecubes and straw, I heat embossed with clear embossing powder, and then slightly tinted the ice cubes with the BG11 marker, and colored the straw with the RV17 marker. Both are shiny and raised.
The scallop at the bottom is a Spellbinders die-cut using the Fancy Scalloped Pierceability Die. (I often use it as a simple cut rather that embossing and piercing.)
Here's hoping that your day looks more summer-y than mine!
P.S. This just in:
Remember the new Spica glitter pen colorsthat I've been using off and on and telling you that they would be available "soon?" Soon is NOW. :-D Woohoo! Furthermore, Marianne Walker, Copic Product Specialist Extraordinaire, is celebrating her first blog-iversary. In celebration, several Copic team members are giving out some great prizes over the next few days. Check out Sally Lynn's post here. Sherrie Siemens, Sharon Harnist, and I will also have some Copic giveaway posts to help Marianne celebrate. Happy Blog-iversary, Marianne!
