SUMM SUMM SUMMERTIME!!

Oh yeah, it's here.  Summertime.... and.... Bellarific Friday!  The theme for today is Summertime and this Mo Manning image from Stamping Bella is perfect!

When I coloured Little Umbrella by Mo Manning... I was going for a healthy tanned glow, but by the looks of it, she's on the verge of getting the burn of her life.  But check out those shades... I gave her a dab of Glossy Accents on each lense just to help with the strong effects of the sun.  Safety first.  8)

Oh my, this is a perfect image for this weeks challenge. Carla, your colouring and shading of her is gorgeous, yes you can see she is getting a bit too much sun! Love the shades with the glossy accents and all your extra details on this. She is one 'hot' chick (or should I say BABE!). Have a great weekend.

Dear CarlaBella,

Your card brought a big smile to my face. That's is just ingenious the way you used that die-cut for the sun and topped it off with the yellow (mustard) colored corduroy button. Lots of detail on your card and may I say I adore the A2 size.

I smiled wide when I opened up this image today :) You did a great job on the 'sunburn'! She's one confident lady, huh? Have a great day in the summer over there, Carla!
