Fun In The Sun

I am back again to share a card I created using a Pure Innocence stamp set from MFT Stamps.  This time I used the Fun In The Sun set, which I coloured with Copic markers.  I gave the girl a rainbow water lounge and gave her darker skin and curly hair to change up my regular Caucasian colouring.

The background, which I love, was created using three different blue Distress Inks and the new Make Waves Stencil from MFT Stamps.

To create the background I first blended the 5 1/2" x 4 1/4" white card stock panel with the three distress inks going from light to dark. Once the panel was well blended, I stayed it with some water and then blotted up the excess water with a paper towel,  I then used the Make Waves stencil and blended some more of the matching distress ink on each of three sections.  the waves are quite subtle but I really love how it turned out.
