TCP ATC Blog Hop!
Good morning! See I told you it'd be a busy week! :) But we have something so special and fun today! A few months ago Linda (LSN to SCSers) decided to host an ATC swap for all lovers of The Cat's Pajamas. Of course, I had to join in the fun - especially since I was part of one last year, also hosted by Linda, and got some amazing little works of art! ATCs are so much fun to make and even more fun to receive! :)
So Linda suggested that we have an ATC blog hop to share all our wonderful creations and here we are!! This is the beginning so you've come to the right place! My little ATCs used Poochie from the Fun in the Sun set. I've always loved all the super swanky stamps in this set - so cool!
I die cut the waves and then used a bottle of Ranger White Paint (the kind with the sponge dauber built in) to add some "foam" to the waves. I used Leigh's little cloud technique which I LOVE to do now and really had fun adding bright, summery accents! I had to use the Easy Rosette CutUps die which I think everyone should have - lol!! Great stuff!
Ok, your next stop is Ms jennypete and you do NOT want to miss this one! Let's just say . . . amazing!!
Oh and here's the order in case you get lost along the way. - Happy Hopping! :)

So happy to have one of these in my posession. Loved the surfing/summer theme. Beautifully done.

These are so cute and fun!
ReplyDeleteCute card! Love the bright "sun" and foamy waves.
ReplyDeleteReally cute! I love your colors and the waves. Great job!
ReplyDeleteI love how Poochie is flying over the waves! btw - great swim trunks! I'm always amazed to see how some people can see beyond a single use for something like the Rosette for the sun and using both sides of the wave. Great job!
ReplyDeleteTotally fun!
