love it!
that puppy with the hose reminds me of my parent's dog in the summers and I just LOVE it!! it's SO funny, and contagiously fun!
I used the super adorable Dog Days of Summer Stamp Set! once it was colored with Zig Clean Clear Real Brush Markers, I fussy cut it out!

for the background, I used Mustard Seed and Squeezed Lemonade Distress Inks to ink blend the background! then I used the same colors, but with more pressure, through the Sunscape Stencil to create the sun and rays! 
I dropped some water and splatters of color over the inked background too.

then I used the Cloudy Sky Stencil to add some texture with the white, puffy clouds! :)

be sure to check this out on the Newton's Nook Designs blog!
and now back to your regularly scheduled summer day! ha!
enjoy!
