Put on your shades, because the MFT Design Team is shining today! They are bringing the heat with an array of products centering around a HOT theme — Surf, Sand, & Sun. Get inspired with some COOL new ideas using the hottest products available. Let’s dive in! 

I think it would be SOOOOOOOOOOO nice to be relaxing in a pool—or the ocean—and soaking up some rays after being shut in for so long, don’t you? I’ll have to keep living vicariously through my cards for a while, though, so I got out this cutie for today’s card.

First, I created my background by doing a watercolor wash on Ranger Watercolor paper, then spattered it with clean water and popped it up on a Sweet Tooth card base after adhering a strip of Fun in the Sun Paper Pad. Next I stamped the images on No Line Coloring card stock with Extreme Black hybrid ink, cut them out with the coordinating Die-namics, colored them with Copic markers, and popped them up on the card front with foam tape.

The sentiment was heat embossed on a strip of Black Licorice card stock and adhered with foam, as well, for the finish.

And that’s it from me today! Thanks for stopping by today! I hope you can find some way to relax like this girlie is doing—take good care of yourselves!
