Hot Summer Day - Elphine House Australia

Hi there!

It's time for a new challenge at Elphine House Australia! This time the challenge is to make a card or project that reminds you of a hot summer day!  All you need to do is create a card or project using any Elisabeth Bell stamp from any company and make sure to follow the theme.  The winner will be chosen randomly and will recieve 2 stamps from EHA. You have a whole month to enter the challenge, as we are doing monthly challenges for the summer.

Here is my take on the challenge...




This is what I think of on a hot summer day...ICE CREAM!!!  The background paper on the side of this center-step card have ice cream cones and milk shakes...YUM!  This little girl is a new stamp from Elphine House Australia called "Emma's Gift of Love".  She's so sweet, as are all of Elisabeth Bell's images.  I love the pastel colors of these Nana's Kitchen Designer Papers for a little girl.  I couldn't find a color combo I liked for the dotted dress, so I decided to use Diamond Stickles.

Here are some more pictures showing the side view, inside, and a close-up of the image.










For all ingredients used:

Stamps: Emma's Gift of Love (Elphine House Australia)Inspire Me Sentiment (inside the card - Heartfelt Creations)
Paper: Solar White (Neenah), Nana's Kitchen (DCWV), Bashful Blue (SU)
Ink: Onyx Black (VersaFine), Pink Cheeks (Powder Puffs)
Accessories: Labels 20 (Spellbinders), Diamond Stickles (Ranger), White Seam Binding (Really Reasonable Ribbon), sponge, satin bow (Offray), flower (RAK from Sabrina), adhesive pearls (Recollections), pearl heart (Want-2-Scrap), mineral spirits, Prismacolor Pencils

That's it for now!  Hope you can join in the challenge this month!

Blessings!
