Happy August! Gosh summer seems to be rushing by. With the new month comes a new release by Doodle Pantry; and I am excited to share one of the new releases, Carousel Dolphin. I love the vintage feel of this sweet image. It brings back many wonderful memories of summer vacations, carnivals, and trips to the amusements park.
I colored the image with Copic markers and colored pencils. Edges were distressed with Crushed Curry ink. I used lots of layers and a scallop border die cut. Finishing touches include a silver ribbon and metal embellishment.
I will be entering this card in the following challenges:
Digi Choosday Challenge Week 30 -- Lots of Layers
City Crafter Challenge #222 -- Animal Magic
Fan-Tastic Tuesday Challenge #46 -- Anything Goes (square or rectangular)
Cute Card Thursday Challenge 332 -- Vintage
The Crafter's Cafe Challenge #74 -- Use a Digi
Divas by Designs July 30 -- Anything Goes

Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend; many thanks for stopping by!
