Seas the Day....

 

Hi everyone, dropping in today to share some inspiration with you.  

  I a few days ago, I was bitten on the palm of my hand by a bee when folding up the washing, so have found using my hand very sore and as it was swollen,  it made it very hard to bend my fingers .  Now the swelling has subsided I can get back to crafting - yay.

For my card I am using a stamp set from Altenew called Seas the Day.  As the card was  being done as a birthday card I found that the sailing boat was going to be perfect for  what I had in mind.

I coloured the stamped image with Polychromos Pencils and you will find the colours used are listed below.  My background was coloured using Distress Oxides and for the sky I used my cloud stencil.



Supplies used:

Altenew Outline Stamp Set - Seas the Day

Altenew Stamp & Die Set - Happy Sentitments

Lawn Fawn Die - Small Stitched Rectangle Stackables

Polychromos Pencils

Sails: Magenta, Cold Grey VI, Mid Cadmium Red, Alizarin Crimson

Sail Boat: Burnt Umber, Burnt Sienna, Bistre, Brown Ochre

Distress Oxide Ink Pads - Stormy Sky & Uncharted Mariner

(a similar result could be achieved using Distress Ink Pads)


Thanks for looking.


Until next time - Happy Crafting
