Sneak Peek: Taste of the Tropics!!

Is it just me or does it feel like three years have gone by since my last kit peek? Time is weird this summer! I've been measuring time in trials - as a few cases I've followed have recently come to trial in quick succession, and so I think that's part of the temporal issue. 

But at long last I have a Hero Studio kit peek! And I think you might *think you can guess what this month's release looks like from my peek, but when you see my cards Monday I think your mind will be blown. 

Today - I'm using the dies that come with the main kit, and as they are big, bold, tropicals, I had to watercolor them. For the foliage I only used Dandelion and Teal, and just mixed them until I saw what I liked. I used Pink and Dandelion for the hibiscus, again blending them. Then I added white acrylic paint pen dots and the sentiment! I thought about doing an ink blended sky behind the plants, but there's SO much color, it popped best on white.


Want to see some more peeks? Head over to this post to see them all, and I'll see you Monday!
