It's Summer Time

Hello I have a New card to share with you using this sweet Stamp that came in my Summer Stamp Kit, I have no idea what this sweetie is called but I sure had fun coloring her up with my Distress Reinkers.
I used UTEE on all the image (I love this stuff I can't believe this was the first time I used it) , placed it in the freezer and bent it here and there to show the cracks, then I rubbed vintage photo to age the look. My Cherry blossoms are from IAMROSES, I love these flowers.
It was a pain to stitch on the the image with the UTEE, I thought my needle was going to break.
I made a little map from vellum, and tied some twine around it to hold it in place.
I used Frantage embossing powder on the cute little dolphin charm, again I mixed some of my old powders together to recreate a New look.
These are the colors I mixed.
I add a bit of each one.Orange,white and a clear chunky one.
I add them in this little plastic container.
I store them in this plastic container I purchased at Michael's, I have extras to mix other colors.
I added this cute tag that pulls out from behind the design paper, I stamped the tag with the stamps from the New Summer Magnolia Kit. I hope you found a bit of inspiration today, Thank you!
