You Are Unique

DSCF4276

My DH decided in the midst of my rainy stamping day to go out to buy and put up the shelving I have been wanting in my craft room.   I am NOT complaining!  But it did cut into my stamping time as I had to clean everything off the 7' long table I use!  Plus I have a stamp club meeting tonight!  But I did have time to stamp one quick little one-layer summer card for the SCS challenge.  Just PRETEND that you don't see the little smudge in the sentiment!

I love this beach chair image from Lockhart, and my other go-to beachy set is Shore Thoughts by Lizzie Anne.  (Hey, it's on sale this week!)  I stamped the image in Stazon, then quick colored it in with SU markers.  I pulled out the large shell image from Shore Thoughts and stamped it also in Stazon on some polyshrink, used my pastels to color it in, and shrunk it down into a little charm.  Some wide Regal Rose grosgrain is the last embellishment, other than some DD for the sand!  It is POURING rain here, so this is the only sunshine I'll be getting today---except for that shiny new shelving!  Have a great day!

  • Stamps:  Beach Chair, Lockhart; Shore Thoughts, LAD
  • Paper:  WW
  • Ink:  Stazon Black, Regal Rose
  • Acc:  Markers, Polyshrink, Heat Tool, Pastels, Sanding block, SAMJ, DD glitter, string, 1/8" circle punch
