Summer Happiness for The Paper Players 790

 I do like a beach theme, so I picked up the Summer Happiness bundle from the July online exclusives pre-order. Preorder opportunity is one of the best perks of being a Demonstrator. 😀 

It seemed a perfect chance to try it out, with Christy's beautiful summer colour palette this week at The Paper Players. There were lots of super entries in Stef's Masculine theme challenge last week, so if you entered - thank you!

I started with a Coastal Cabana base. I blended Coastal Cabana ink through the new Water mask with a blending brush to create a light-on-the-water effect. 

Then I used some of the dies and stamps from the bundle to create some jandals, a camera, a pair of sunglasses and two flowers with Lemon-Lime Twist centres and clustered them over the water. I particularly liked the stamped glasses and camera, worked tone-on-tone.

The sentiments in the set lent themselves more to scrapbooking, so I used a sentiment from Rolling Waves then completed the card with a trio of Strawberry Slush flat pearls. What a marriage Summer Happiness and Rolling Waves will be!

The team and I would love to see what you do with Christy's bright colours. Visit The Paper Players to see what the rest of the team have done and to link up your entry.
