Summer Gingham Picnic

Today at Double D our challenge theme is SUMMER Gingham!
We have a super fun inspiration board to get you going! 


I used a cute set I purchased from Hello Bluebird last summer or maybe
even the summer before and this is the first time it has seen ink, my bad!!
I also purchased the matching die set making it an easy way to cut out my 'critters'
having a picnic.


I used gingham for the picnic blanket and the fun sun
The grasses and the sky were stenciled using Lawn Fawn stencils.
The critters were colored in with Tombow Markers.
I sure had fun with these cute critters!


Pop on over to the Double D challenge and see all the
beautiful gingham cards from my teammates,
they are sure to not only WOW you but inspire you as well!

Entering the following challenges:
The House That Stamps Built  .... Stenciling(Repeat Impressions Theme Challenge #J721)
Simon Says Wednesday Challenge .... Hello Sunshine
