This month's inspiration is all about pairing up beautiful summer colors as this wonderful season begins to come to a close.  Put together some citrusy hues along with some pretty floral images to create the perfect project that embodies everything summer.


When I first saw this month's inspiration picture I was always drawn to the "Monet" type background with its subtle pinks, blues, yellows and greens, so when I was playing on SAF Saturday and created this piece of paper with leftover ink and shaving cream I knew it was what I was looking for July's Blog Hop Challenge.  Hawaiian Shores Ink embossed, Simply Chartreuse Ink and CS.Melon Berry Ink and CS,Berry Sorbet Ink and CS, Harvest Gold Ink and CS, Edger # 2, Life is Sweet Stamp set, left over Marble Dye Technique from SAF. Thank you for stopping by for a look. Have a great Day!

    I haven't tried that technique yet, but definitely need to get to it after seeing yours. The embossed sentiment really shines against the swirls.
