Published Card - Craft Stamper

Hello Everyone

A while back I posted that I had a card published in the Craft Stamper. Today I am sharing that card with you! ;-)

I really loved this card and had a lot of fun making it! ;-)

The stamps and goodies are from the Pink Paislee Nantucket collection.

The new Craft Stamper is out this coming Friday! It's a super, inspirational magazine! ;-)

Just a very quick post...

Hoping you have a super, crafty day!

Make Waves - Sketchabilities #119

Hello Everyone

I have a page to share with you today for the Sketchabilities #119 sketch.

I have been wanting to do a beachy page of Joe, for a while now and this sketch just lent itself to the idea in my head.  So I created a mixed media page.

I used the super Pink Paislee collection, Nantucket. I really do love it.

I used some real shells, along with my chippies and woody pieces.

For the sun I cut a circle from one of the yellow patterned papers and really liked these little seahorses facing one another.  Then I just added some thready wool and it became a sun! I thought it turned out nicely.

I used lots of paint, sprays, stamps, dry walling tape and gesso. I really did enjoy playing with all of these mediums.

Overall, it still has a pretty clean look....

This photo was taken last year, when Joe and I were at Salt Rock in September...it really was such a nice time for us and we really did have a blast!

Thanks so much for popping by.

I hope you have a super evening!

Sunset - Scrap Africa Sketch no.23

Hello Everyone

Welcome to November! Hasn't it just come around so fast!!

There is a new sketch challenge up at Scrap Africa here. It is a sketch from PageMaps and is a real goodie!

So here is my take on it.

I really love this collection by Pink Paislee - Nantucket and so knew it would be perfect for this page.

I did some acrylic texture paste stencilling along the top and bottom edge of my papers, and then also added some Glamour Dust for DecoArt.

The acrylic texture paste and Galmour Dust was a little bit difficult to photograph, as it either shined up too much, or one could hardly see it! So apologies, but it looks pretty good on paper!!!! ;-)

These photo's are again from our recent beach vacation and was taken just before sunset.  The colouring at this time of evening was just spectacular! I just so love the beach and Joe does too! ;-)

Well I hope that you can play along, you have until November 14.

Wishing you a super weekend!
