Fishing You Were Here -- Splashtastic Summer from K Andrew Designs :)

Happy Tuesday, Friends!!  Isn't today just a TERRIFIC Tuesday???  Well, I know mine is!! :)  I have a SUPER FUN card to share with you today...  I've just been having such a BLAST with my new K Andrew Designs Stamp Art sets -- Have you gotten yours yet???  You can check out ALL 6 BRAND NEW sets by clicking HERE!! :)
With the WARM breeze, the SUNNY skies, and the FLUFFY clouds, we've been enjoying SUMMER around my house!!  Baseball games, bicycle rides, and relaxing sure fill up the days QUICK!! :)  So with summer on the mind, I created this card with one of my favorite animals to visit at the ZOO...
Aren't penguins just the cutest???  This penguin looks like he's having the time of his life just kicking back on his inner-tube while catching some fish!!
And how about that PERFECT sentiment from the Splashtastic Summer Stamp Art set: "Fishing you were here"???  hee hee...  Just brings a happy smile to my day!!  I have a sweet friend that I'm sending this card to...  On the weekends, she likes to fish and go kayaking!!  I haven't gotten to see her in a while, so I want her to know that I'm looking forward to her trip here this August!!  YAY!! :)
This card is a standard A2 size.  All of the paper came from my scrap stash!!  Most of it is from the Creative Memories Fabulous Power Palette (the yellow background paper is from a promotional pack).  The penguin stamp is from a Stampin Up! set that I've had forever (and the set doesn't have a name on it, so if you know, please tell me).  I used SU! watercolor pencils to color the image and orange Stickles to glitterfy the fishies. :)

I hope you have enjoyed my happy little card today!!  Remember, each of Kristal's stamp sets benefit a CHARITY...  So be sure to pop on over to her blog and her site to read all about the wonderful charities she's selected...  And while you're there, do something nice for yourself and order up a set of her wonderful stamps -- You're sure to enjoy them!!  :)

Until next time,

Amy, this is so precious! I was gone for a couple days so I had to zip back and see what incredible creations I missed... and sure enough, I'm greeted by this cutest penguin ever. You colored him so gorgeously and I love the glittery fishies. The papers are perfectly beautiful, too. Gosh. I love this card. :o)

Hugs and blessings! :o)
