I finally took some time to play with the June kit from @heroarts and decided to Copic color these beautiful dies. I'm glad I gave it a try, as intimidating as it was. I had done another version with colored cardstock just before and I just could no longer use it after I was done with her.

Don't believe one minute that you could take Chompster his watermelon! With such a thick fur, this is like wearing a Winter coat. Have you tried to wander around with a fur coat in a hot Summer?!

I have a fun interactive card today with the Snap 'n slide from @pearblossompress. The Snap 'n slide is perfect to create slider cards. I used a prototype on my card but the good news is the new Snap 'n slide hit the store. It complements the original disk which you can now find in the store as Snap 'n spin disks. Where the Snap 'n slide has 3 legs to glide within the slot the Snap 'n spin has just one leg and can therefore spin 360°. Both are great products to have in your stash for interactive projects and they really make spinners and sliders super easy!
