This week the Paper Players have a beach theme as their challenge so I pulled out the very versatile Work of Art stamp set to create my version of a beach. I also choose to go with the Colour challenge from Create with Connie and Mary – perfect for a beachy theme!
I do {heart} this for sure. The combination of Coastal Cabana, Hello Honey and Baked Brown Sugar make for a lovely beach theme.
Tips:
1. I inked up the stamp and then “stamped it off” onto a piece of scrap paper before applying it to the whisper white piece.
2. Glue Dots were used to arrange the Baker’s Twine just so.
