I hope that everyone is looking forward to the extended Jubilee Weekend, who has plans? I'm not sure that the weather is going to be very graceful which is such a shame considering the weather that we have been having. I hope that it doesn't spoil anyone's plans. Let me know what you are all doing it's great to hear all about everyone.
This mornings Allsorts Challenge is all about the seaside. Our lovely Fleur has set this fabulous challenge for us and the winner will receive 6 digi stamps! from the lovely Digi Stamp Boutique.
Thank you to them.
My take on this Challenge is this card using a gorgeous stamp from Faye Whittaker from the All Our Yesterday's series of stamps. It doesn't matter whichever design I use from this series I always love the results and the images are so cute.
I coloured the image with pro-markers and pencils, the mix really worked on this image. It doesnt show very clearly but I have softly penciled in the sea and the horizon with the sun just setting. Don't you wish you could be there right now!
The papers used are from the Melissa Francis range and I have also used the Tim Holtz rosette die and a Marianne swirl to finish everything off. Mustn't forget the bunting especially this weekend! Have you got yours up?!!
I hope that you like the design - I really enjoyed working on it and it gives you a really warm feeling
looking at it.
We have got another busy weekend at the shop - tomorrow we have got
