A Sunny Hello (PB Saturday Challenge)

Hello and welcome

I’m back with a reminder for the July Challenge over at Penny Black Saturday Challenge!  The theme  is  Anything Goes (Optional ‘Spots / Stripes’)

As usual, we are sponsored by the awesome

I was lucky enough to get this sweet PB stamp – Beach Baby from my wonderfully crafty friend Therese from Lost in Paper and fell in love with it.

After stamping and copic colouring, I fussy cut the top section and attached it to a panel which had the sun rays stecilled on it.

To keep with the theme of spots & stripes, I added spots to her swim suit and beach sand and stripes to her hat ribbon and towel.

The sentiment is from PB – Sunny Days stamp set.

As I didn’t have any wider navy stripe ribbon, I cut a piece of navy card from a piece of packaging and added a scrap of navy stripe ribbon in the centre before attaching it to the card front.

To finish, I added some die cuts using Memory Box – Seaside Treasures cut from another scrap of packaging.

Please head over to our blog to  check out the wonderfully inspirational work by the rest of the Design Team!  I hope you will find the time to join our challenge this month.

I look forward to seeing what you create!  Good luck!

Thanks so much for taking the time to visit.  I love to read your comments and will be sure to check out your blog.

I hope all is going well for you all! Stay safe!

Cheers

As You Like It Challenge – Warm or Cool Colours & Why It is Your Favorite

(I tend to often use more cool colours, but then I do love to use the warm colours too. Strangely, I find I use yellow less than any other as I sometimes struggle with them. In this fun scene, I kept mostly to the cool colours but then had to add the warmth of the yellow to add to the feeling of a warm sunny day at the beach.)
