CASology Challenge, Week #214: BEACH - 2nd entry


Hello there! Welcome to my brand new blog! I've been joining the CASology challenge several times since June, but this is the first time I enter from my own, personal blog. My previous entries have been on my stamp company's blog, using nothing but stamps from that line. Which is fine, but I have been a stamper for decades and have a huge collection of stamps from other companies, and it's a pity that I never use them anymore! So, here we go ... my very own blog, where I can do whatever I want to ;-)

OK, long intro there - here's my 2nd entry for this week's cue word at CASology, BEACH:


I stamped the grassy sand dune (Cherry Pie) on watercolour paper and coloured it in with a waterbrush, using two hues of yellow ink for the sand and two greens for the grass. The shells and sentiment (Rubber Dance) were stamped with brown and yellow ink and adhered to the card with foam tape to pop them up a bit. I added a bit of blue ink to the sky for balance.

I'm entering my card to this challenge:



Thanks for visiting!

  3. ADORE this Bibi!!! I really love how you composed the scene, and that little strip of blue sky just balances the whole image perfectly, adding depth and atmosphere! I must remember to try that myself! I am so glad you enjoy playing with us at CASology because we SO enjoy having you join us each week too!

I guess it's not common that people go back to see if they were thanked for their comments, so I will say it now: THANK YOU so much for taking the time to leave a comment! ♥
