Summertime

Hello, thanks for popping by, I greatly appreciate 

you taking the time.

Today at My Time To Craft the new challenge is Summertime.

Please check out he blog for details and to see the DT's

inspiration. 

I chose a 6" sq card, yes, I'm addidcted to them.

I used blue and yellow card to mat the main piece.

The stamp is from a set "At the Seaside" free with a 

magazine.  Promarkers used to colour the chairs.

An Inkylicious cloud template to create the sky with 

DI Tumbled Glass and a few yellow DI to create the sand.

Greeting stamp from my stash. Enjoy your crafting.

Summer Activities

Hello,  I hope you are well and coping with our 

difficult world conditions. My thanks to you for taking the 

time to visit my blog.

Today at Make My Monday we have began a new challenge. 

Please pop over for the details and inspiration by the D.T.

To create the beach scene I first stamped the lady, then 

added a mask to stamp the seascape stamp.

I used a clouds template from Inkylicious.

Stamps from an A4 set - At The Seaside. 

I coloured in various ways, Promarkers, blending inks,

watercolour with Oxide ink. 

Please stay safe and well.  Happy crafting.

On, In or Beside the Sea

Hello again, I hope all is well with you and yours.

Please stay well, stay crafting and stay smiling.

Today we begin a new challenge at Cardz 4 Guyz.

Helen has chosen for #242 On, In or Beside the Sea

During these lockdown days, we can only dream of 

being by the sea, unless of course 

you're lucky and live there.

Please check out the blog for details and don't miss 

the wonderful creations from the Design Team.

I started with a white piece of card, 

I stamped the Sweet Dixie Lighthouse first, and

covered it with a mask.

I then used Tim Holtz technique, which he calls 

Wrinkle Free Distress Technique. 

I used two Distress Oxides - Broken China

and Mermaid Lagoon to provide the splattered background.

I used all four of the stamps from the same set.

Removed the mask, coloured the lighthouse, 

yachts, rocks and birds with Promarkers, a white Gel pen,

and pencils,
