Here is my latest bit of inspiration...

With kids going back to school, and some just starting their scholastic adventure, I thought this little lady would inspire.

The sand is done using Texture Gel Paste, usually found in your local craft store's art department, then having a bit of beige, acrylic paint added to it.

The shells are simply die cut from teal, mirror paper to add a bit of pizazz the to the card.

Moving Along with the Time Challenge

Hi to all my crafty peeps,
Time for another fun challenge at Moving Along with the Times. This time the inspiration is CAS otherwise known as Clean and Simple.
Below is my project...

Now I know this looks crazy, but it only has one layer of watercolor paper.
Using Ken Oliver Color Bursts, I placed a stencil down on the paper first. Sprinkled the Color Burst powders, spritzed the paper with water, let it set for a second and lifted it off. It literally only took me about 3 minutes to create!
The baubles are clear, picking up the color of the paper underneath. These would make quick and easy thank you cards!!

Here is my latest bit of inspiration...

Even though summer hasn't officially started yet, it seems to be in full swing here in Florida. This image from Julia reminds me of the sun & surf that Florida is known for.

The background piece was created from Finnabair's paste and an embossing folder. Below is a link to the tutorial video. I then colored in with Color Burst watercolor crystals. Finnabair Icing Paste Skins
