At The Beach

By
I am just loving creating with the High Tide set at the moment. It has lots of lovely images that work with out the focal lighthouse.
Take a look at the card I have made for you today


My beach scene was created by stamping the sandy bits in Crumb Cake ink. I then added my tufts of grass. I reckon it's Marram Grass - you know it's the really tough stuff and can't be pulled up but if you look inside the blades it's all spongy!
Anyway - after I had stamped the grass I added the sea. This was stamped in Versamark ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder. Blue ink was then sponged over it.
The sky was sponged with a pale blue ink (Soft Sky) and the birds were again stamped with Versamark and heat embossed in white.

This card is being entered in to the challenge over on

Make My Monday

where the challenge is 'At the Beach'

Thank you for stopping by to take a look - it's lovely to see you here. xx

Beauty of the Deep

I do love my nature stamps and I also love stamps of the sea whether it be above or below the waves. I have taken possession of a new set from the catalogue called Beauty of the Deep. I have made a card with this set as it lends it's self perfectly to the the new Boho Blue In Colour. It also has a gorgeous little fish which I couldn't wait to use - take a look Although I've mostly used blue ink I had added white highlights with a gel pen and then to finish it off a little sparkly blue gem. Thanks for stopping by today - if you wish to place an order or request a catalogue please drop me a message at  jacquelinenm68@gmail.com

 I have decided to try and get on top of my Christmas cards early this year and so far it’s going well!!! Here is a card that has been made using the Sweet Gingerbread set - I love gingerbread houses and the stamps and matching dies are really cute. I used the sketch from  52 Christmas Card Throwdown  - this is a brilliant Christmas challenge blog (I started it many years ago with Mynn Kitchen) and it’s a perfect way to get organised with Christmas crafting. Thank for stopping by today - see you soon - J xx

In The Frame.

Yesterday was birthday and my lovely husband bought me some crafting stash. Unfortunately he duplicated an ink pad (Distress Ink - Tea Dye) but the craft shop where he bought it were very kind and let me exchange it for something else. That something was a fab little Crafty Individuals stamp. So I raced home, turned my craft room upside down looking for my EZ Mount, and made this card for this week's Less is More  challenge. This week the girls wanted a one layer card with the theme 'In the Frame' Here is my card I made this by first masking off an area in the center of the card - directly on to a 5" x 5" white card blank. Then using my brayer I added some yellow, blue and green ink to the card. The masks were removed and the image was stamped over the brayered square. Thanks ladies for another fantastic challenge - Jacqueline xx.
