This was a super fun card to make for my lovely DIL's birthday, and I was able to use my new Penny Black "Uplifting Occasion" stamp...isn't it darling. I also decided to use a Starburst bg to add lots of pattern, and I colored my kitty with Copics. My final step was to spritz my card with my Bath & Body Works Diamond Shimmer Mist (oh, my how delicious it smells)!
I am able to enter it into seven SCS challenges:
*The Featured Stamper FA392 - My special day is: National "Let It All Hang Out" Day.
*Three of the July Dirty Girls' Monthly Themes:
#CT-0717 - Time to Relax - what you'd like to do to relax.
#WORD0717 - make your card using the word NAPS. N=Nestabilities; A=Aroma (my card is spritzed with an aromatic shimmer); P=Penny Black stamp; S=Sponging (two ray patterns are sponged to make color matches).
#DINSP0717 - hammock inspiration photo...perfect for my PB stamp!
And, two Alphabet Challenges, Round 7:
