Water it!
I got to play with these gorgeous Echo Park, Country Drive papers, from Crafty Emma's.
I cut out some wave shapes and used foam pads to attach them, then coloured my Cool Cat with Copics and nestled him amongst the waves.
Something makes me think that this cat is a guy! I know - he's got flowery flip-flops on, but I think he's borrowed those, 'cos the ground is too hot for his delicate little feet!!!I added some glossy accents to his sunglasses and the ice in his drink.
I covered a piece of card with Bakers Twine and added the Catslife Press stamp - both available from Crafty Emma's. - and attached it around his paw, as though it was a little kite. Oh, and the little birdy is cut from the DP.
Here's a picture to show you the layers better.
