Bonfires

Gelli Arts is hosting a fun Summer Camp Gel Printing Challenge over the next few weeks.

 

 

I always loved summer camp despite the big bites, freezing cold showers, and sweltering heat at night when it was time to fall asleep.  What I remember are the joy of every afternoon in the pool, the friends, and the artistic endeavors we undertook.

I chose a group of prints from my stash that reminded me of a bonfire.  The idea of creating pictures from my prints means some of those that I have no idea what I would make with them suddenly become useful.

 

 

I used the deep blue for my background and the brown for my logs (using a cartoon pictures as my visual inspiration).

 

Next I hand cut lots of flames to form my bonfire and then searched for the perfect sentiment sticker to turn this into a card.

I'm also linking-up at the X is for Exposed Challenge at Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers … because if liar's pants really did catch fire, there would be a lot of exposing going on.

 

 

Hopefully I'll be able to play along with at least several more the next few weeks.
