Seashells On The Seashore

Hello and happy Friday!

Welcome back to my blog for another new challenge. I am your host for this weeks challenge and its called: 

 Seashells on the Seashore

I would like you to create a card with seashells. Use images, dies, stamps or even real seashells on your cards this week. You can even draw or doodle your own seashells. Have fun creating !!

As a child I remember going to the beach with my family and I always loved collecting seashells on the beach. I was fascinated by all the beautiful patterns and textures they had. So this weeks challenge is inspired by seashells I collected as a child.



So for my card I decided to incorporate real shells. I have kept it clean and simple by using natural colours for the background and textured card. Then simply placing my chosen shells and adhering them into position. I finished it off by adding a small tag with a sentiment.

I hope you enjoyed my take on this weeks challenge. Show us some of your creations and don't forget to share on the Daring Cardmakers blog.


Thank you so much for stopping by and I wish you all a very happy weekend. Check out all the inspiration from the DT over on the Daring Cardmakers blog;

Sunshine- Daring Cardmakers Challenge

Hello and welcome back to my blog!

Oh my goodness we are nearly at the end of May!!! I can't believe my last post was in March. Those of you who do take the time to pop in and read my blog apologies for not being here these past two months. Life has been a bit hectic here hence the reason for neglecting my blog! So I'm here today to spread some Sunshine and happiness with this weeks Sunshine challenge by Miri. She says;

SUNSHINE

Put a sun, bright yellow circles or sun rays on your card. It might be a sun as a focal point or in the background or as part of a scene.

So dig out your dies, stamps etc. and send some sunshine into the world!

(And after your crafty session go outside and enjoy some sunshine!)



For my card this week I have created sunrays using a stencil and distress oxides. I coloured in two cute images from Aallandcreate by Janet Klein. The images were then adhered to the background and then mounted onto card. To finish it off I added a sentiment also by Janet Klein (Everyday sentiments #666). 

I hope you enjoyed my take on this weeks challenge. Show us some of your creations and don't forget to share on the Daring Cardmakers blog.
