Another for the same challenges as last post!

Nautical Blue

The challenge at JUGS this week is to create something using Monochromatic Blues

 

 

The ship image is from an old SU set.  Stamped the ship in Memento Nautical Blue onto Gina K Little Boy Blue then colored the ship and sails with Inktense Watercolor Pencils and sponged TH Distress Ink Weathered Wood around the edges.  Layered onto some Gina K In The Navy cardstock, added a strip of washi tape and some knotted navy/white baker's twine.  Then layered onto some blue Core'dinations that I distressed the edges.  The background is some more Core'dinations, this one is Shattered which was embossed with a Sizzix folder.  Card base is the same Little Boy Blue that the image is on.

 

Thanks for looking!

 

You Rock!

I made this for 3 challenges this week:

First, stamped the guitar with orange pigment ink and embossed with clear ep.  Masked the guitar and stamped the floral flourish with green pigment ink and also embossed with clear ep.  Masked both the flower and guitar then stamped the background frame with aqua chalk ink.  The sentiment was stamped with Memento Cottage Ivy.  Layered onto dark green cardstock.  Added a strip of washi tape to the aqua card base.   Stamps:  Gina K Live Life Loud.

Anniversary

 

I used the sketch from JUGS to make this anniversary card.

 

I had received this cute Precious Moments image years ago through Wish RAK at Splitcoaststampers.

Colored the image with Inktense Water Color Pencils and water brush.  Stamped the little Love sentiment with Memento Nautical Blue ink, punched it out and layered on a red circle punch and onto a blue Tim Holtz Tiny Tags and Tabs circle tag.  Added the fun little arrow that I have been dying to use.  Added 3 little red heart gems.  Cardstock used:  Coredinatons card base, Gina K Denim Blue, Neenah Solar White and AC Moore Cherry Red.  Dp is My Minds Eye.
