A big Congrats to Joyce Ann, the newest Featured Stamper (FS523) on Splitcoast! She has such a big, beautiful gallery & a lot of scrapbook pages! I chose THIS to case. I kept the sort of vintage humor theme & the layout but changed most everything else. Different images, different colors & different papers. I’m also adding this to the Ways to Use It Challenge (WT622), Spunky Old Broads because this trio of beach babes certainly qualify!

I stamped, colored then overstamped the babes on an already die cut white panel. After adding narrow black & turquoise layers, I found some paper that had glasses on it so I used it down the left. The greeting was tucked underneath the image panel & some die cut glasses were colored and added in the corner. This greeting just makes me chuckle…I can just hear the other two women agreeing w/ her..”Mmmhmmm..you know it, sweetie!”

Here are the Copics I used.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

I’m adding this to the Penny Black Feb. Challenge to use a favorite stamp. 

Supplies:

Art Impressions Beach Babes	Double Stitched Rectangles Dies	MFT Diagonal Stitched Rectangle dies	TE Eyeglasses die

This was made for Edna’s Dare To Get Dirty challenge on Splitcoast & we’d love for you to join in so for all the details go to the Dare to Get Dirty Forum ..but you’ll need to be a Fan Club member. It’s sooooo easy!

I always get a big kick out these Art Impressions people & I just had to have the Beach Babes set & this greeting cracks me up every time I see it. My boss babe was put into my Misti, stamped w/ Memento, colored w/ Copics & over stamped w/ Versafine. I did the same to the umbrella & I shaped it a bit before attaching it on top.

I used some curved matting basics for the large white layer & a curved square die to cut out the center. For the boss babe inset, I used a square die then rounded the corners to match the cut out. Since there isn’t a next smaller size of curved square, I did it this way so there wouldn’t be a huge gap between the two. A little stickles was added to her ring & the ice in the glass & Wink of Stella added to her sunglasses & bracelet.

Here are the Copics I used.
