First up today is Theresa's new Under The Sea...........


 Stamps: Under The Sea
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Tim Holtz Distress Spun Sugar
Paper: Pure Luxury White, Innocent Pink; Sunshiny Day dp
Copics: R85, R83, R81, RV000
Accessories: Clip, Ribbon, Twine, Rhinestones

I know some of you have seen my pink sea turtle card....but how could I resist showing the entire card on my blog when I just sneaked a bitty part of it last week?!!!  LOL  Now I think I can hold my own with other colors.....but we ALLLLL know how much I adore pink!!!!!  So why not turn everything pink so that my world is expanded with even more pink??!!!  =)  I do love coloring with my favorite Pink Copics!!!   I used Pure Luxury Innocent Pink and GKD Sunshiny Day dp.  I used Tim Holtz Spun Sugar around the edges of the embossed panel and some pink ribbon and twine and rhinestones cuz we gotta have bling!!

Next is Rupa's Enjoy The Journey......


 Stamps: Enjoy The Journey
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
Paper: Pure Luxury White, Baby Boy Blue; Poolside dp
Accessories: Ribbon, Twine, Pearls

I colored the globe and plane with Copics and cut it out to pop it up over the twine and ribbon.  I thought the GKD Poolside dp was so fun for a masculine travel theme and goes perfectly with Baby Boy Blue Pure Luxury.  Yep....those are pearls....hey....masculine cards need bling too!  LOL


Now you'll LOVE what the other DT gals have to share!!
