At the Beach
Hi everyone, welcome to my fourth post and project as a spotlighted guest at Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenges this Month. This week the challenge theme is :
At the Beach
I stamped the images using the AALL & CREATE Sea Essentials stamp set with Archival Ink Jet Black. Then color them with Distress Ink. Cut the lighthouse and flowers with scissors.
For the background, I sprayed the Distress Oxide Spray and Distress Spray Stain directly onto the watercolor paper. When it dried, I stamped randomly using the AALL & CREATE Sea Essentials stamp set. Distress the edges using Paper Distresser. The two seagulls are die-cutting from Impression Obsession. I've had this die cut in my stash for a long time. The sentiment is Tim Holtz Tiny Text.
- AALL & CREATE #442 Sea Essentials
- Tim Holtz CMS394 Tiny Text
- Impression Obsession Die078-F
- Distress Oxide Spray:salty ocean, broken china, vintage photo
- Distress Spray Stain:uncharted mariner
- Distress Ink:spun suger, fossilized amber, chipped sapphire, hickory smoke, black soot, walnut stain
- Archival Ink Jet Black

Since it is the first Monday of a new month, the team is featuring products by a specific designer/company, and this week it is Dylusions. You don't have to use their products to join, but it is always fun if you do.

take risks
I made a cute card using the "SUMMER TIME" stamp set by Waffle Flower and combined with the "KELP COLLAGE Craft Dies" by Memory Box. Summer is here, which means the days of sweating are here....lol
Until Next Time,
