Hi peeps! Saturday morning...feeling a bit melancholy today for whatever reason...trying to find some crafty mojo and some energy. Put the laundry in, now just looking at the giant hurricane aftermath on my stamping table. Not knowing where to start. But maybe I just want to go lay down with my kitty and take a nap. Ever feel that way? I will perservere and I know that something will kick in! I hope you are having a great weekend so far. Are you crafting this weekend?
Today I'm sharing a card I made for Eat Cake Graphics with their Summer Houses stamp. This is a big image and I had a lot of fun coloring it a while back. Reminds me of summers by the lake and easy breezy days. I hope you like it!
I colored the houses with my trusty Copic Markers. I made the roofs all the same color to give some uniformity to the image and also to "ground" all that color. I wanted the houses to pop off the page. I went back and forth on how to color the grass and ultimately decided just to add a little bit of green and leave the rest white. Don't you wish we were there right now?
Okay, I'm off to find my crafty mojo for today. Have you seen it?
THE END. Hee hee.
I love the colors! It is so bright and cheery. Do I recognize a Martha S. punch? :)

Awwww, what a precious card, Wanda! I LOVE the bright colors. Love the paper and the fun trim. Your houses really do pop, just as you hoped, and I SO want to be there right now.
And thank you so much for my belated birthday card. You could not have chosen a more perfect image. I LOVE those hedgehogs, love the polka dotted papers, and love the touches of sparkle with the glitter. Fabulous banner sentiment, too. Thanks for bringing a smile to my face.
Hope you enjoy your weekend...playing in your scraproom, or doing nothing at all. :)
