Summer Fun

Have someone said summer holiday/vacation? I'm in. 

This week over Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge 

we invite you to join our SUMMER FUN theme. 

As always you can win a $50 voucher and spend it

at Simon Says Stamp Store.

Summer vacation for me is always exploring, discovering and visiting.

I am not a laying on the beach kind of person so I always try to visit some 

new places and explore their beauty. I love the sightseeing and taking pics.

That is why my tag was made in a very travelling mood. 

First I cut out the Sizzix Globe which I really love but would prefer 

they make them in a Bigz version to can cut thicker material. 

I colored it with Distress Oxide Inks, spritzed with water, covered with a thin layer of pearl paint to fix the colors, colored with Distress Oxides again and finally covered with my absolutely fave Distress Crackle Paint Rock Candy. 

This layer did a double work: crackled and extracted the vibrancy of colors. 

I cut out 2 tags, one from a kraft paper and the other one 

from a white cardstock. The white one was colored with soft 

browns and yellow Distress Oxide inks.

I also used Sizzix Mixed Media die to cut one of the corners. 

For my words I used SSS Green Apple Cardstock, 

embossed with the beautiful Sizzix Botanical 3D folder 

and touched with Prima Shine On foils (thanks, Sandra!).

Have a great SUMMER FUN everyone!
