A Peaceful Day on the Lake

 


 Hello friends!

I wanted to quickly make something to share on my blog today so once again, I hopped over to the Paper Playful site and found a couple challenges that grabbed my interest.

First is the Hand Stamped Sentiments Sketch Challenge #470 (winner picks 9/2) and here's their sketch which I flipped to create my card :

 

 and also the theme over on the Shopping Our Stash Challenge SOS555 (ends 9/8) which is 'On or In the Water' caught my attention so I grabbed my Stampscape stamps and created this waterfront scene.

 My background papers came from the Paper Rose paper pack called 'Wild Poppies' 

 

and I used both Tombow markers and Tim Holtz distress oxide inks for the coloring.

A few other challenges to play in:

Dream Valley Challenges #343 - 2 or more papers (9/8)
Cardz 4 Guys Challenge #377 - Boats (9/16)
Allsorts Challenge #830 - Something beginning with B (birds, boat, birthday, blue water) (8/30)

I hope you like what I've created to share with you today!Thanks for stopping by!!

As always . . .
