Swimming Challenge

Hello!  I hope your summer is going great!

What says summer more than swimming?

And that is exactly what our theme is this week on 

The Eureka! Stamps Blog.

For my swimming themed card, I have used

"Bubbles Background" (#58101) and

"Flying Girl Holder" (#21701) from

Eureka! Stamps

I stamped the Bubbles Background onto white card stock

and cut the top along one of the "waves"

I used the Flying Girl Holder to create a girl diving into the water.

Below is what the image actually looks like.

As you can see, I modified it a bit.

I masked off the girls dress and stamped the rest onto white card stock.

I then used a black pen to draw in her bathing suit.

I colored and fussy cut the girl and posed her as a diver

on the card with foam tape.

I think this would be an adorable invitation to a pool party.

Too bad I don't have a pool, eh?

I love to find different ways to use my stamps, to stretch my supplies and

create something a little different than what was intended.

Thanks for coming by today,

I hope you have learned something and been inspired.

I also hope you'll join in the fun of our 

swimming challenge this week.

All the particulars about the challenge are on the 

Eureka! Stamps Blog.

Until next time, Happy Crafting!
