ATS Release Tonight!

Happy Monday! I hope you had a great weekend! Our Fourth of July was rainy, cold, and generally miserable -- many of the fireworks displays were postponed until last night. Since there wasn't much to do around here Saturday evening, we took the girls to see Ice Age 3. SO cute! :) The sun finally came out late afternoon yesterday, so we did finally get to see some fireworks around our home last night! Also yesterday our son Kyle returned from his retreat in Wyoming. He had an amazing trip and couldn't wait to show us all his photos! :)

Tonight is the release of the new sets at All That Scraps. This preview is of two new sets: Underwater Adventure by C.C. Designs and Underwater Sentiments by AmyR Stamps. I just love this image of Mermaid Emma! I colored with Copics and Spica pens and sponged the edges of the image panel and sentiment. I cut out Emma and popped her up on dimensionals. I glued some real miniature shells onto the scene for a realistic touch! :)

Here's a closeup of the sparkle from the Spica pens...


You can see more samples of these two sets on the ATS Blog HERE and HERE. Join us on the ATS Forum tonight from 8-10 pm Eastern time before the sets are released! :)

I hope you enjoyed the ATS Previews -- these new sets are just so much fun to play with! :) Thank you so much for visiting today!

Have a fantastic day! :)
