Hot August Night

Second post of the day.... my Creative Craft Cottage post is here

Today is the start of a new challenge at Die Cut Divas... Arlene has chosen a awesome theme... Hot August Nights.... Hop over to the blog to see what she has in mind... I did struggle a bit as August is winter time for me... but after reading Arlene's brief... she talks about nights of rock and roll in Reno... I finally came up with an idea.....

Hot August Nights

As is my way, the card is CAS... I started by masking off the centre and painting it with some Koh-i-noor water colour paints.  I stamped the rockabilly girl from The Greeting Farm onto some scrap white card and coloured her with Copics.  I fussy cut her and layered her onto a little die cut doily from a Die-namics die.  It is a super cute little size.  The You is a Simon Says Stamp die cut with a matching sentiment.  I drew around the masked area with a Copic multiliner pen. 

We would love to have you join us over at Die Cut Divas with you ideas for a Hot August Night

Hello Dawn,

Oh how adorable, Dawn! Perfect card for the challenge. My hubby used to want to go to Hot August Nights since he's a car nut. However, we're not really into crowds, so probably won't ever go.
