613 Avenue Create -JULY 2023 - ANYTHING GOES w/Optional Twist: Nautical

 Time for another  great challenge at 613 Avenue Create. As always the theme of the challenge is anything goes and the optional twist is Nautical (boats, sand, water, beach houses, etc) Perfect challenge for this summer season.

I have used a stamp and die set by Stampenous called Sailboats to create my scene. I used a combination of water colours, copics, trees by Tim Holtz. The birds are part of an unmounted stamps that at this time I do not remember the companies name who made it.

Two by Two Challenge at A Place to Start

Time for another great challenge over at A Place to Start.  The theme of this challenge is as always anything goes with the optional twist of : two  by two.

These are my birthday cards for two special little boys  in your family who are  twins and turn 10 in March.  It is always a challenge for their birthday 

I like the cards to be similar but different. 

I used Tim Holtz Hipster stamps to create the card.  I used similar papers in the cards and many of the same embellishments. I coloured the gears with Copic Markers and Distress Ink.  I added gears, diamond glaze, wooden numbers, and a sentiment to complete the card.

They were fun cards to make and always a pleasure to make them for their birthday.

Thank you for stopping by and have a creative month.  Hope you will join us this month for this challenge.
