Good Morning and welcome to the May Fresh Brewed Designs Blog Hop!

If you have already visited the challenge blog and are arriving

Last month we welcomed in Spring, 

but this month we are moving on into summer!

 

Sand in our toes, the smell of salty air, late evening walks, sticky, Popsicle covered faces, mosquitoes...

Yes, it is almost here. 

And we are SO EXCITED!!!

 

Here is my project that I created featuring one of Heather's newest digital stamps called:
"Beach Sweetie"
please click on the first image for a closer view and slideshow...
I thought this little sweetie would look DARLING on a door tag for the pool area...
so here is our "Girls Only" change room sign... 

I started with a plain wooden flip-flop form...

sponged sand coloured acrylic paint on the bottom part for sand then added Aged Taupe Frantage...

next I sponged on pale blue then added a black/green colour for a water look...

I sponged the pale blue on the top for the sky then added white for clouds...

I painted the straps in a pale mauve...sponged the flowers with white and added Shabby Pink Frantage...

I dotted on a chocolate coloured copic for the center of the flower...

a closer view of "Beach Sweetie"...

closer still...

I added natural coloured raffia and a mauve/white stitch ribbon for hanging...
I printed three tags on my computer and added a fish charm...
