Out With the New and In With the Old #15

 I am enjoying using my old wooden stamps! Finally using them is much better than looking at them displayed across the room. Ha! My cards this month are beach themed. I love this seagull stamp. I used a background stamp for the water. The stamp is actually supposed to look like distressed paper, but I think it works great for ocean waves as well.

This little mousey is keeping cool the very best way! I love an ice cold lemonade in the summer. 
I made a torn paper look background by masking off torn strips of Masking Magic, blending colors with a sponge and then stamping a crackle stamp over top. When you remove the strips this is the result!



Stamp: Citrus Bath - Stampabilities
Saying - Just For Fun Stamps
Background: Crackle - Impression Obssession
Distress Oxide Inks - Ranger
Alcohol Markers - Caliart
Diamond Glaze (ice cubes) - Judikins
Enamel Dots - Eyelet Outlet
