Hello and welcome to the Stamp It Group Summer Fun Blog Hop! My name is Ann Verillo from Auburn, NY and you are visiting my blog Stamp With Ann. This month our theme is Summer – Patriotic. I love summer and especially the July 4th Holiday! I’m originally from Huntington Beach, California so my card this month represents the “beach” and of course Red, White & Blue!
My card starts with Basic White card stock. I am kind of going for that monochromatic look – but with Red, White & Blue LOL!
Next I die cut the Palm Tree with the corresponding Beach Dies in Basic White, Real Red and Blueberry Bushel card stock. I also die cut the Sea Shells in Real Red and Blueberry Bushel. The Waves, Fence and Grass were die cut in Basic White card stock.
Next I stamped the Surfboards in Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them in with Blueberry Bushel and Real Red Stampin’ Blends. I also die cut the square tag with the Stylish Shape Dies. Then I stamped the sentiment in Blueberry Bushel Ink. And of course I went a little overboard on my “bling” with the Tinsel Gems 4 Pack in Blueberry Bushel!
I finished off the inside by adding a panel of Basic White card stock. Then I stamped the Surfboards in Real Red and Blueberry Bushel Inks. Lastly I stamped the sentiment in Blueberry Bushel Ink! Thanks for swinging by to check out our Stamp It Group Summer Fun Blog Hop!
