The Alex Syberia Designs Summer Release, “Happy Cuties and Peony Corners” is filled with summer loving characters enjoying the sun and sea and peony bouquets ready to fill a card with beautiful blooms!

My featured 5″ X 7″ card on this hop showcases the following new items:

Summer Chill stamps  or Summer Chill Stamp and Coordinating dies Bundle (Coordinating dies sold only in the bundle)

Sun Rays Stencil

Clouds & Waves Builder Stencil

These new stencils are perfect for creating the perfect setting for these chillers! Here’s how I made this card.

  

To make this card, I started by stenciling the background for a pretty summer sky. I stenciled the clouds using the Clouds and Waves Builder Stencil, blender brushes, and Distress Oxide Ink in Tumbled Glass. Next, I stenciled over the clouds using the Sun Rays Stencil and Mustard Seed Distress Oxide Ink. I used an aqua blue and an ivory cardstock to create the water and sand mound. I used Copic Markers to add color to the sand such as E43, E55, and E42 and a white acrylic pen for the water ripples in the water.

 

Using the Summer Chill stamps and coordinating dies bundle, I stamped, colored and die cut the five chilling characters. I used Copic Markers to color the illustrations. I attached the “summer chillers” to the beach scene. Lastly, I stamped in black, die cut and attached the sentiment from the same set.
