Morning all!
It's my turn to set the elemental inspiration challenge this month over on the Daring Cardmakers blog, and well I've gone for something that will hopefully be seasonal! ;)
Weather permitting!
For my card I took inspiration from the seaside theme, the colours, and the pattern elements:
Stamps: Waffle Flower - Birthday Wishes, Waffle Flower - Postage Collage Beach Days
Dies: Waffle Flower - Birthday Wishes, Waffle Flower - Postage Collage
Stencils: Waffle Flower - Postage Collage Beach Days, Waffle Flower - Postage Collage Coloring
And yes, it may very well be a shameless excuse to use my Waffle Flower Beachy Days stencils and stamps, but if I don't use them this time of the year, when else will I? ;)
I used a few different ink colours for the various elements, including two recently reinked blue shades from The Stamp Market that I may have overinked! Oops.
I even managed to cover up a stamping boo-boo (upside down seagulls) by covering that first attempt up with the lovely Birthday Wishes stamped sentiment.
And, of course, there had to be some traditional seaside rock-inspired stripes!
Make sure you check out the projects from the rest of the design team here, and play along if you can!
Happy crafting!
