What's Under the Sea?

 

I had a lot of fun playing with some
 old and new product for this challenge.

Hostess for our Word Week at Just Us Girls is Sharyn

choosing WATER.

 

 

 

Before I made my card I had played around with a few

water scenes which landed up in the bin.

This is when I decided to get out some inky messy items

to try my hand at something quite different.

As some of you know I recently spent time

with crafty friends at a Craft Show and this is where

I bought a few of the products I used here.

Gesso Paste

Gelatos

Texture Pastes

Sparkle Medium

White Embossing Enamel for the bubbles

Glossy Accents - water spots

Shells and cotton from my stash.

Now pop over to Our Blog to see what
our August Guest Colleen Foelker
and my talented Team Mates have created.
I hope you will have time to join us
this week.

Thanks for dropping in

 

 

 



It's Sketch Time at 'The House'

Being the end of the Month it is

Sketch time over at The House that Stamps Built.

 

 

 

 

As you can see I have flipped it and

matched it fairly well.

I wanted to try and make a scene using

a few Repeat Impression stamps

These are

The chair - 3415I

Clouds - 3403F

(hard to see as I sponged over them)

Gulls in Flight - 3412C.

Card stock is a dark brown

and a lighter brown for matting.

Embossed background.

My little scene was sponged with

various inks depicting sun sand and surf

with a touch of white on the waives.

Added some seaweed grasses from GKD

The chair I coloured and added touches of white

for a distressed look.

Finished off with trimming

a brad and the sentiment

is from Altenew.

 

So that is it for me this month at The House.

Thanks for dropping in.
