Today is a gloomy wet day, so using Summer Sun helped perk me up quite a bit!

The colors for the color challenge were Summer Sun, Riding Hood Red, Kraft and Black. The base is Red Riding Hood. The main image is the stamp from Fresh Cuts. I stamped it 1st onto Summer Sun ink, and then used my Aquapainter in Red Riding Hood from the pad and added red shading on the botanical images around the stamp. I stamped it onto Naturals Ivory since white or vanilla might be too stark, and I thought it went with the Kraft better.

The vertical edge is Kraft and Summer Sun cut with the Scallop Edge punch and punched using the 1/16th hole punch. I added some branches in Summer Sun and floral stars in Riding Hood Red. The ribbon was Red and White grosgrain. I used my Summer Sun marker to change the white stripes to yellow and then used a dauber and Riding Hood ink pad to add a darker shade of red to the piece and take away the brightness of the Real Red. It is attached with an SU! clip.

There is a bit of the SU! chunky glitter as well as Dazzling Diamonds glitter here and there to add a bit of sparkle to the card.

I made this card with my 2 year old on my lap the whole time and she helped me along with the ribbon and some stamping. I think she will be crafty like Cam is!
