JAI #344 Inspiration Challenge - Day at the Beach

Morning gang, wow what a week. I don't think I've been so busy with challenges and there is still one more post to come later on tonight. But it does feel great to be back in the craft closet are being so busy with the kids.

School holiday's really does keep me flat out but I'm lucky that my kids would do anything to get in my craftroom and play with my goodies.

Here is my daughter making some birthday cards for her friends, and yes she is in her swimmers. She said it was the only way to stay cool!!

So for today's challenge, we are hanging out with the JAI gang, who have a very seasonal photo to inspire us:

 Now I did think I could have taken inspiration from the pool that the lady is sitting in and maybe make a project life page of our background pool with recently put in, but for some reason I just kept coming back to her hat and so I decided to go along that line.

I was really pleased with how this came out, and it was such a fun card to make. Oh and if you were wondering about the sizing, these are actually our awesome notecard sized cards.

I used the sun hat stamp from Day at the Beach as my ground images plus my main accent. The stamps from this set are all so much fun and very versatile. I can't wait to use them on upcoming holiday scrapbook pages.

I used my markers to colour in the sentiment in different colour (this trick is something I really love to do) It's such an easy technique but gives your sentiments a little bit more  wow.

Well now it's time for you to check out the other DT's creations and find some time to join us this week. As always I can't wait to see all of your creations!!

Happy Crafting,
Chlo

ESAD Holiday Catalogue Blog Hop - A Day at the Beach

Hi guys and welcome to another fantastic blog hop with the ESAD girls. Wow, I've done a few of these now and always have such a blast. I love to hop around with you all and check out all the talented creations, and I know this time will be know different.

Whether you are a regular visitor or have just arrived from the super amazing Kelly Kent, I just want to say Hey and I hope you like what I have to share with you today.

This Holiday Catalogue really has been awesome and there is so much that I love from it, and this set is no different. The only thing is, that this is my first play with it!?!? I know shocking lol.

I had this idea to pair the sentiment from our Tin of Tags stamps with the Day at the Beach set. I thought it would be a fun way to play on the sentiment Warm Wishes!!

My little black and gold banners are actually pieces of washi tape that I stuck on itself and then snipped out the flagged ends.

Now it's time for you to carry on hopping over to Jackie Noble's blog and check out her beautiful work!!

Have a fantastic week and Happy Crafting,
Chlo
