Whimsical Wednesday Fun in the Sun Challenge!

Second post today! Phew. When you are on a roll, climb a hill, curl up and roll faster I say... 

Whimsical Wednesday is one of my favourite challenge blogs, they give you two weeks to complete each challenge and every challenge adds something great to your album. This week's is Fun in the Sun. 

BBTB2 is also having a Clouds Challenge! I'm entering that, too!

Fun in the Sun is a weird one for me. My two sons have a rare type of albinism and generally hate the sun, but they are very good at self management and enjoy many days under the shady sunshine. 

The clouds are cut from Zooballoo. (I don't own Pooh and Friends) They are a double and single cloud that are weird shapes, so I layered them for a Cumulus effect.  I inked the bottom of the clouds with Stormy Sky ink and the top of the clouds with Mustard Seed so that it looked like the sun was shining on top.

They really enjoy days when it is overcast and the 'sun shines above the clouds'. 

I made my own funky sunglasses stamp! Lol. You'll never believe how. Scrap supplies rue the day they came home with me. Most have have called their union saying, "Chloe's making us do jobs other than our purpose!"

Kindy Glitz puff white complains today: Use it to draw some sunnies on a piece of acrylic...  

Let it dry, add another layer. Let it dry. 

Use Double sided tape to stick it onto acrylic mounting block.

I used Peeled Paint Distress ink to stamp it on. 

(You know how actresses say the camera adds ten kilos of weight? Well, my camera adds ten kilos of dirt to my pretty blue mat... and acrylic block! Eeeekkkk!!!)

VOILA! Funky Sunnies! It would look great as a personalised sign off on a letter! Just like acrylic you can wipe it off with a baby wipe and use again. 

My other new distraction is Candi! I got some in a prize from Scrappy Go Lucky and I'm in love. 

 The little sheets of tiny pre-cut foam poppers are worth it alone! I'm not good at cutting itsy bitsy bits, so this is PERFECT! I'm going to ordering a tonne! Plus the Candi itself looks great!

 I wrote on the Candi with permament thin marker for little letters...oh so cute.

They really do look like mini m&m's. The word sun below is from a Technique Tuesday stamp set that I borrowed from Carlene. (Oops -had it wayyyyy toooooo looooonnnnnggggg and now my cover will be busted when she sees my blog! EEEEEEeeeeeeeeekkkkkkkkkkkkk!!!!!!) 

Not that she will care. That's why I celebrated our friendship in the post below. We don't keep score because it's never been a competition. We just work! (hahaha... is that enough to keep these stamps a little longer Daisy!?) 

Thanks for fun challenge Whimsical Wednesday!

Thanks also to Bitten by the Bug2!
