Well, at least it is in the northern hemisphere. Although, I gotta tell ya, I will NEVER be caught in a bathing suit. Oh, and a quick confession--I can't swim. The water SCARES me. So, you'll never see me swimming, in a swimming suit, or near a large body of water on purpose. ;) But, my card features the cutest suit you've ever seen!!! I was at my local craft store yesterday and Karen (owner) had some darling Ippty stamps on clearance. Of course I grabbed them up! I will make a card featuring the other stamps later, but today I'm showcasing the swimsuit!!!
Here's the card~
Details~
For these fabulous challenges~
I had tons of fun making this card! I first stamped the image with black ink onto a piece of light blue paper for "sky", then I stamped it twice onto white paper using red ink and black ink. I cut out the black ink image and adhered it to the blue paper, colored in the band in the middle, then cut out the red image and glued it on top. Some glittery spots and a rhinestone completed the process! What do you think?!
Thanks for stopping by--I hope you create something today! I would love to see it! Happy stamping--don't forget to join in the fabulous challenges above!!! :)

This is a really fun card. The polka dot paper is perfect for the swimming costume!

This is so sweet Mynnette!
Aaaah, love the bathing suit and the embossed background,very CAS but the message is loud and clear, wonderful job. Thanks for joining us at Lexi's Creations for our 'at the beach' challenge!
Hi Mynnette, lovely card, as always. I thought that you might like to know that I loaned the card that I made using your faux pressed flower technique to Jenny from Hobby Art. She took it on the TV with her today and it got shown off beautifully. Just a shame I couldn't get her to say where I got the idea from. Still we know don't we :O)
