Surfs Up....Dudette

Happy Thursday!!!!  Just one more day until Friday!! YAY!!!  I can't wait for my weekends can you? This girl needs her beach time!  Today, I bring you a fun card featuring one of the NEW release sets Newton's Beach Party.  What is cuter than a bunny in a grass skirt?? NOTHING!  

I went for an 80's feel on this card I thought the crazy Geometric background was a perfect fit for the 80's and surfing.  I don't know about you but wearing surf brands in the late 80's - early 90's was the trend...whether or not you surfed! It was just COOL!  I knew I had to have the Billabong corduroy jacket....who's with me?


Ok, So back to the card.....I used some patterned paper and vellum to create a ground for my surfing bunny. I love the look of torn vellum, it just ads that extra touch.  To top it off for my custom sentiment I used some Tiny Type. 

I hope you loved going back in time with me and are inspired by my card.  I had fun creating this for you all. 

See you next time!

Relax....


Happy Friday!!!!  I am so glad it's the end of the week and I really wish I was on the beach in our Inky Paws Challenge Image today!!!  Instead it's Newton who gets to relax on the Beach today. lol 

I recently got my hands on some Peerless Watercolors and I have to say they are awesome!! The pigment is super bright and bold!!No need for layering color to achieve the brightness you want. 


I used our NEW Release Newton's Summer Vacation.  I just love him in the inner tube!! I added some dots for more texture and interest with a white Gel pen.  I hope you are inspired to play along with us in the Inky Paws Challenge!!!

Thanks for stopping by!
