A Lawn Fawn Swimsuit Season Card

Hi there!

Just popping in today to share with you a little card I made using Lawn Fawn's Swimsuit Season stamp set and papers from Echo Park's Summer Days collection (I think I just might have bought enough of this paper to last me until I die).  :)

For this card I employed one of my favorite "cartoon strip" techniques that I discovered playing around one day.  Sometimes when I get done stamping a bunch of images, the card seems to lack the punch to match the images so I pull out my sharpie and a piece of scratch paper and trace everything which results in a thin outline on the diecut pieces and the rest going onto my scrap paper.  It's a fun technique and I like the way it ties everything together.

Thanks so much for stopping by and taking a peek.  :)
