Papertrey Ink June Release Countdown Day 3

It's day 3 of the Papertrey Ink June release countdown! I'm sharing three projects using the new Soak Up the Fun stamp/die set and my last card features the new Baby Elephant stamp/die set.

This is such a fun summer set; it includes three sentiments and all of the images you need to create a fun summer scene!

I had a few flowers left over from yesterday's arch card so I added a few of those for some extra detail!

I used the Watercolor Wonderful Stencil Collection for the background to enhance the 'splash' theme! I used both a green and brown marker to give the palm trees the two-toned look; the stamp is just solid so I wanted something more realistic. I added some Nuvo Crystal Glaze to the swim goggles.

My second card for today is a shaker card; you can see the shaking bits better in the remainder of the photos, but I wanted to s how it how it looks just resting.

I used some Bitty Big: Pale Peony paper as the backdrop for the shaking sequins for added detail.

The new Fantastic Front: Scalloped Frame die is the perfect choice for a quick and easy shaker card! If you know me, you know I struggle with shaker cards, but this one was easy-peasy!

I used a few more of the leftover flowers from my wreath card for this card as well. 

I used another one of the sentiments; the die set comes with dies for the sentiments so I added it over the top of the acetate using foam squares.

My third card using the Soak Up the Fun set uses the previously released Through the Palms Hot Foil Plate. I created a quick blended panel using pinks/purple ink for a sunset type look.

It used the highest heat setting and let it heat for 25 seconds and I got a nearly perfect result!

I added the water portion and the floatie at the bottom of the scene and added  few more details.

You can really see the shine of the foiling in this photo!

I added some glitter and sequins for even more sparkle and shine!

I have zero baby boy cards on hand and I have a baby gift to deliver! I took a picture with the outfits I bought in the background; this photo shows the shorts and shirt outfit which I tried to match the card to.

The outfits are jungle-themed so the new Baby Elephant set is perfect!

You can see the cute sleeper in the background of this picture. I chose to use Honey Nut cardstock with Platinum foil using the Tropical Frond Hot Foil Plate for the background. I stamped the elements from the Baby Elephant set and then mounted it on an arch that was die cut using the new Love to Layer: Arch dies with the new Baby Clouds stencil.

I did stamp pink on the ears because it just seemed like the right thing to do, but I hope it's not too girly! ha ha! Thanks for fltutering by!
