Sun Shiny Day | Erica Thompson

Do you have a favorite summer collection? Well I think the new Simple Stories Sunshine & Blue Skies is my new favorite summer collection. The colors are gorgeous and I thought this collection was the perfect match with the Sun Shiny Day cut file.

I cut the file out on some white cardstock and used white as my background. I pulled out some ink colors from Cathereine Pooler Designs that I think are a perfect match. Samba, Coral Cabana, Limoncello, Suede Shoes, Mardi Gras. I used these colors to create splatters all over my background matching the colors with the backed cut file.

I love all the color peeking out behind the file and it reminds me of colorful confetti. All I did was take the ink pad and press it to an acrylic block. I used my water bottle to spray some water onto the block and mixed it together with a small paint brush. Then I just flicked the color onto the water cardstock.

I popped the cut file up with some foam adhesive for dimension and tucked in some of the Sunshine & Blue Skies die cut flowers around the cut file. I also added an epoxy flair from Scrappin Happy Studio. Here is a look at my completed layout!

Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you enjoyed my layout. If you haven't got your hands on this cut file yet you really need to! You can find it HERE in The Cut Shoppe
