Just Add Ink #742

Hey Everyone

This week at Just Add Ink, our challenge is an inspiration picture challenge. Take a look at the chalenge pic:

I wanted to incorporate the foliage and colours from the pic on to my card. I added die cut palm trees from the Beach Day Dies as well as stamped images from the same set. I created circles that created sand and sea so it completed the look of a beachside scene.

Thanks for stopping by.

Cheers

Freshly Made Sketches #669

Hey Everyone

It’s my turn to be the sketch designer at Freshly Made Sketches. Take a look at the sketch I threw together to you to play along with.

I almost stuck to my sketch…. I had an idea of what it was in my head and created a card, but maybe I should’ve had it in front of me as I am a tad off….

It’s Summer here and it’s been soooooo hot. With how hot it’s been, I decided to incorporate that summer beach feel with the images and dies from the Beach Day Stamp Set and matching dies. There’s a new set in town, due to Sale-A-Bration time, called Friendly Seagulls Stamp Set. I felt it was the perfect match for a beach-y card.

Make sure you head over to the challenge and see what the team have created.

Thanks for stopping by.

Freshly Made Sketches #642

Hey everyone

Ready for a new sketch challenge to play along with at Freshly Made Sketches?

This week our sketch hostess is the uber talented Jen Mitchell. Jen’s creations are just awesome with clean lines and perfect choice of colours.

I may’ve slightly gotten my card a tad wrong as I missed adding the the strip across my card – altho I could maybe say there is almost a row of fussy cut grass that I’ve added?

As soon as i saw the wavy line on the sketch, i knew i wanted to get out my Beach Day Stamp Set and Dies. They have a wavy edgelit die that sorta created a line like Jen’s sketch. I then set about creating the images to fit the space on the card.

I stamped surfboards and colours them all with my blends. I then diecut palm trees and arranged all my images until i was happy with the result.

The team have created awesome projects that will inspire you. Head over to Freshly Made Sketches and see what they’ve created.

Thanks for stopping by.

Freshly Made Sketches #628

Hey Everyone

Guess whose week it is to be sketch hostess at Freshly Made Sketches? With a question like that, it’s gotta be me right?

Take a look at my sketch:

The Beach Day Bundle was a bundle I wanted, but have held off buying until just recently to buy. It’s not my usual flowery set, but it appealed to me because of the vibe and cool artwork. We have holidayed at the beach since I was young. I have continued this traditional with my kids and love the calmness of just watching the waves come in. This is one set that I will probably keep for those friends and fam that surf.

Here’s my card:
