Spoon Full of Sugar - Summertime!

I guess it is official - Summer is here. Kids are all out of school now, and the hot weather has gotten a bit hotter. Good time for the Spoon Full of Sugar Summertime theme then. To use Summer Colors or images on your cards - Me I went with colors... and one of the newer Stampavie Tina Wenke images... "Leanne and Hedgie"
I colored with my Copics and then shaded with Prisma Pencils. Totally adorable image!! I cut it out with Nesties Label 11 - And then drew in the matting with a Copic.

For my card I went with trying my hand at an twisted easel card... ok.. not so sure I pulled it off. LOL It really is easy - well from the instructions it sounded easy. Fold the top of your card diagonally in towards the inside of the card, then it can be folded in and stand up - But I think I stood mine up to much, cuz it isn't looking twisted to me ... just odd. Well I'll try again soon and see if I can do it right. My pattern paper is from DCWV Whimsy stack. Love the embossed glitter of the paper.
Here is my card standing... see... standing just a bit much huh? LOL I added buttons all round the card. I wanted to add flowers, but I really thought this card needed to stay more simple and not cover all the flourishing of the papers.

I hope you will spin on over to Spoon Full of Sugar and see all the Summertime cards - and then join for a chance at the prize.

Since I went out on a limb and tried the twisted easel card - I might as well list it over a Splitcoast Stamper for their Twisted Easel Challenge :0) Hope they like it, even if it didn't twist just right!

Have a great Tuesday! HUGS and -
