It's finally summer! Is it just me, or is it easier to create a summer-themed project when the sun is shining and it's warm outside? (This may not be relevant for all of you, but us Pacific North-Westerners are finally seeing some temps above 60 degrees LOL.) I used up what was left of my KNK June kit to create this layout, and finally felt inspired to use some of those popscicles that came with it....
I was due for a good good glitter mess, so I cut my popscicle sticks into various lengths, put a layer of Glossy Accents on them, then dumped Doodlebug Sugar (Bumblebee) over that. I also mixed a little chunky orange loose glitter for a more textured look. The resulting sun-accent for my page worked really well with some photos of one of our trips to the coast. This would also be a great way to simulate sand on a project.
Finally, with a few leftovers, I made this Encouragement card. Inside reads "You'll feel better!" with plenty of white space for a hand-written sentiment.
Are you ready for the challenge? I know we are slightly past mid-month, but this is an easy one (and I will give you a few extra days, too)! Create your own summer sun accent. You can use anything as long as it is hand-created by you. How do you make sunshine on a page? Link a photo of your own creation in a comment to this post by July 4th, and there's a RAK up for grabs :) Keep in mind you don't have to create a whole layout or other project, just the sun embellishment. Happy scrapping!
