I do love to be beside the seaside ...


... I think that's what this little chappie is singing!

This card is based on sketch 225 on Sketch Saturday, which this week for sketch 264 was asking us to choose any sketch from 216 onwards:

I've used a mixture of offcuts of spots and striped papers and a blue wood print behind the image, which is from the Nutcrafter sailor boy digital stamp set (I cut and paste the two images to go side by side)  which I chose as my prize for winning Nutcrafters 44. I coloured the image with a mixture of copics and Marvy le plume alcohol pens.

Pink and green should be seen


This is for the 'pink and green' Charisma challenge 24.

The spotty background paper was a magazine freebie. The white panel was splattered with a spray of shabby shutters distress ink, water and perfect pearls powder. The green ribbons are part of a Docrafts tea house set, green silk flowers from Create & Craft, butterflies from Poundland and sentiment 'it's your birthday' from Craftwork cards.

Also for CAS(e) this sketch 33 (I flipped the sketch to stamp on the left instead of right)

I masked off part of the scalloped edged card blank, swiped with shabby shutters distress ink and stamped part of the Debbi Moore's Travel stamp inked with memento rich cocoa. The sentiment stamp is from a free magazine set, inked with fired brick distress ink.
