Splish Splash digi fun!

COFFEE of the Day - Toffee Nut (did you notice it says COFFEE?!?! yippeeeeee!!!)

I am playing with some wonderfully fun digi images today - from Digiments and Mo's Digital Pencil. and guess what - both are FREEBIES!!!! cute and free to boot - can't beat that with a stick! and I had a blast creating with these babies!! so run to the sites so that you can have your very own to play with!

The main image is watercolored, with Crystal Effects added over the water. I used a white gel pen to fill in the polka dots and a glitter pen to highlight the star on the ball. My boys always had play balls that sparkled! I traced around the sentiment with a gold glitter pen to add some extra fun on the banner. It is curled to add extra dimension, in case it doesn't show well in the scan. The dp is from Flair Designs, ribbon is from SU!, and flowers are Prima. Buttons are from an ancient stash that has been hiding in the depths of my stamp room for eons. I'm surprised they didn't crumble into dust as soon as they hit sunlight! ;) oh, and the card is a long 9"x3 1/2" to fit in a legal envie. Perfect to send to someone, they expect a bill 'cause of the size, and VOILA, a cutie pie summer card!

Have a great weekend! Have your own 'fun in the sun'! :D

p.s. I'm also using this card for a neat challenge over at Bee Crafty - another fun digi stamping site. Check out the great images there as well! super cute!
