Sending Sunshine....FMS653

 



I loved Kim's idea this week about featuring a BIG sentiment!  I don't use them often enough! So I stenciled some sunshine with Distress Inks and used a bold sentiment from Beachy Keen by Simon Says Stamp. A fun way to send some cheer!


                                               



Follow Kim's advice and find a BIG sentiment to share with us at Freshly Made Sketches!





Stamp Set: Beachy Keen (SSS)

Hitching A Ride......FMS652

 



I'm not too sure about hitching a ride with this crew from the Bag of Bones set! But I do think they are the perfect crew to be on Will's Halloween card!

My grandson Will visited this week and made a birthday card for Cousin Emma.  She is having a pool party so he wanted a water scene. 





 He actually stenciled some waves and learned how to use the Misti to add mean sea creatures under the waves.




And of course you need to add bombs to scare the mean critters away from the swimmers!



And he finished it all off on the back with donut sprinkles because who doesn't like donut sprinkles?!?






I am hosting this week at Freshly Made Sketches. My sketch was inspired by a holiday project in Brian King's Super Awesome Fun Time Card Kit class - always a fun class to take!  Hope you join us at Freshly Made Sketches and put your own mark on the design!
