Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge - Fun in the Sun

I made 2 cards for the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge with the theme Fun in the Sun using Mama Elephant product. When I think of Fun in the Sun, I thought of the beach or the park so I created these 2 cards based these scenes.I used primarily the images from Mama Elephant Little Boy Agenda, Little Girl Agenda and Little Cat Agenda.

For the beach scene card, I used the MFT Snow drift die to make a mask so I can ink blend the beach with Versamagic Sahara Sand and the sea with Distress Oxide Salty Ocean. The sky scene is ink blended using Distress Oxide Broken China and MFT Mini Cloud Edges Stencil. 

I hand drawn the birds using Pigma Micron 08 and added dots onto the sand using Distress Oxide Vintage Photo.

The sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp Flip Flop Season (discontinued). 

For the park scene, again, I used the MFT Snow Drift die to make the grassy slopes. The sky was ink blended using Distress Oxide Broken China and MFT Mini Cloud Edges Stencil. The trees was from Mama Elephant Christmas Scene and sentiment was from Mama Elephant Just a Note.

I mirror-stamped the Little Boy with the soccer ball so that I can have two boys playing ball together. The letter box was from Lawn Fawn Just For You and I thought the Little Cat sending mail was a fun touch. The birds was hand drawn using Pigma Micron 08.

I hope the cards reminds you of some fun you had in the sun or get you to take some time out to have fun in the sun.
