Beachy Little Christmas

I have a Sneak peek of one of the NEW Christmas stamp sets from the Holiday Catalogue, available 1st September, 2017.

'Beachy Little Christmas' was at the Top of my list for my Pre-order. It's the cutest stamp set for an Australian Christmas and for our Southern Hemisphere Summer, I used it for a Beachy Little Birthday card.

It was my husbands Birthday yesterday, and this is the mini card I created.
Complete with Surf Beach sand from our beach in Kiama.

I even glassed the surfboard using the 'Fine-Tip Glue Pen'.

Some watercolouring of my beach scene.

And the sand - I smooshed 'Multipurpose Liquid Glue' onto the watercoloured 'So Saffron' and dipped it in the sand.

Details: The surfboard & swirl, roof, door, shutters, window and steps are all paper pieced; ie. stamped in the desired colour and cut to fit the stamped image. I even used a knife to cut out the steps! I used 'Soft Suede Stampin' Write Marker' to outline the door & window frame.

You don't have to do this - I do this, and not everyone has the time to create this way. Just letting you know in case you wanted to know.

Before I go I want you to check out my amazing friend and 2017 Artisan Design Team Member Louise Sharp's creation using the same stamp set. Louise's creation is so adorable - Click here to visit Louise's blog and inspiration abound.

Have a wonderful weekend, or what's left of it. D x
