It is definitely time for a vacation - Do-Al(l)Creative #55

Hello

We have a new month long challenge over at

Do-Al(l)Creative #55

Our theme is

SUMMER

                                    Our sponsor is Crafty Ribbons

I knew as soon as I saw the theme what image I'd use.. I used the Art Impressions image and colored her with copics. I added some Nuvo drops to her bathing suit as the flowers are so tiny and hard to color. I also added some Nuvo drops to the yard as what yard doesn't have dandelions .. LOL.  I added clouds using my cloud template and Ranger ink. I added to a piece of Stampin up card stock and then to a piece of DCWV dp. I stamped the G Rated sentiment and heat embossed on the SU cardstock and used SU tag die. I added a piece of bakers twine.

Challenges:

Crafting happiness #102 - anything goes / opt. flip flops

Hello

It's time for a new challenge over at 

Cardz 4 Galz #144

Our theme this challenge is

SLIMLINE

Ok.. I don't know if I am sold on these slimline cards yet or not.. I've only made a few. To me it's too much card. ALTHOUGH it worked for this fun Rubber Baby Buggy Bumper OLD stamp.. I love light houses and the coast. We try to get out a few times over the summer. We are only about an hour drive. I love living in SW Washington state.. Anyhow I stamped the image and using Shin Han water colors colored the image.  I found an old pre-scored slim line card base (I had a few from many years ago when I belonged to Club Scrap) I chose the yellow base as it kinda brought out the light house color. I stamped the RBBB ground mounds below the bird with gray ink and stamped the G-rated sentiment. I added this under the image and added to the base. I have this sea bird die I have no idea who it's by but grabbed some scraps and then added it to the card.  I think I would be happier with a slimmer shorter body.. oops I mean card..

It's definitely time - Always Fun Challenge #116

Monday June 24, 2019

 

Hello and welcome back. I have a card to shared for the challenge over at Always Fun Challenge #116

The theme is FUN AT THE BEACH

 

 I have been having a great time lately using my Altenew water color paints.  I also got some Prima complexion paints so wanted to try them out. I think they came out good. I had to kinda figure how apply so I got the right tone. There are quite a few colors to play with.  I painted the sand first with Altenew and then tried the salt on the sand so I could get the texture look. I like the way it came out after I brushed the salt off. I then painted the ocean and sky. Then I painted the CC design surfer Emma girl with the Altenew and Prima paints. I took scraps and Lawn fawn palm die and added this to the scene. I used a G rated sentiment.
