Birthday card - stamped

Here is a design I would not normally have made.  It is a card sketch for the Stick It Down challenge this month.



July Card Sketch

It was quite fun to make. I used derwent pencils to colour in the stamped images.

Castaway Bay

I've scrapped a page using some fun pictures from our day at Sea World a few years back.

This is for a challenge at Soul Scrappers where you needed to use trees.

Here is my page.


I thought it would be really interesting to put everything on an angle for this page.  Why not?

I've used Kaisercraft Peace and Joy/Elation pp for the background paper. Who says Christmas collections can't be versatile?

Then I've used Kaisercraft's 6 1/2" Sandy Toes paper pad a few times. I chose two of the papers and put them one atop the other. These are separated by "blob" washi tape. I didn't name it.  It looked like water to me.  I've used a journal box from that pad too.

I used 2 Creative Memories die cut palm trees and some water splash stickers.

Embellies I've added are a Chipboard anchor and chipboard cloud, some twine and some great brads by Simple Stories "You are Free" collection.  More Simpel Stories for the Alphas and stickers from the Good Day Sunshine Collection.

Cheers,

Unstampabelles' July challenge - double page spread

Hi.

It's time for my DT take on the newest Unstampabelles' challenge,

#102 JulyCelebrating Relationships - Relationships aren't just about what happens in your love life! Most important relationships do involve feelings but don't involve any romance, for example with family, friends and teachers.

           TWIST : work in pairs or have a pair of things somewhere in your work. Has to be about a positive relationship




Background paper is double sided, have used both sides for my double page spread. They are from an old Kaisercraft collection called Lush.
Two photos have two people and both of those photos have been double mounted.
Two flowers on left page, plus two circular embellishments on each page.
Also two grey sticker spots on each page.
Family enjoying a drink at a cafe.







Don't forget - don't use stamps.
Start creating.

Criteria - use pen

I created an A5 sized card.

Here are some pics of the process.




No photo description available.

I used some pp by G45, Game On collection. I picked the tennis players for inspiration. I used a stencil and fineliner pens to create a background.  The ribbon added the finishing touch.  I liked how ut turned out and it was fun to create.
