It's summer, and time for all things beachy--here is an atc I created for a swap,
featuring an image from the Let's Go Wading page:

you can see the shine of the glittery cardstock

The background was made using a wash, a great effect you can achieve using
Splash Inks.  This little cutie is apparently a favorite of mine, she was also
featured on the cover of this beach themed tag book:

The Summer By The Sea tag book directions and supplies are now available as
a summertime kit at Altered Pages--you can have a look inside HERE.

Don't like saltwater or sand between your toes?  Maybe dreamy summer nights
are more your style?  If so, be sure to check out the July Altered Pages
Challenge, Dreamy Nights.  The prize package this round includes a beautiful
Paris Trunk Ink Pad, a 6x6 stencil, and a handy Scissor Mouse.

So, what are YOU dreaming about this summer?
