I stencilled some painty swirls through a stencil and stamped some background stamping on then stamped the focal image of the two wee girls under their parasols and coloured them in with Promarkers then overstamped with some bottle tops and the edge of a credit card. Using a mixture of my handwriting and word stickers I titled the page Happiness is a day at the Beach. It is to me and its been way too long since Ive been on the beach at my beloved Beadnell so Im aiming to get in a visit there for one of the holiday weekends in May. Its not my most favourite page Ive made but its a whole new learning curve to me and Im thoroughly enjoying the learning process.
Brilliant! I could never do this- takes me forever to get things done - i spend at least an hour just thinking about it first!
ReplyDeleteLove what you have done :)

This is wonderful, I couldn't even begin to create something as special as this page, so clever.
ReplyDeleteI'm shocked to
ReplyDeleteI'm having trouble commenting on your blog. I'll try again. I'm shocked that this isn't your favourite page - I love it. Everything, the colours, the stamp ... Everything :)

What a fab idea to send a canvas to cheer a friend.
ReplyDeleteThis is gorgeous and may just tempt me outside my comfort zone! (UKS TinkerHamilton)
ReplyDeleteSuzy you seem to have a gift for canvasses. I'm lucky to have received one in a UKS swap and I love this just as much. It's really nice that you made this for someone to help them through a difficult patch too! Thanks for sharing this - another one to bookmark in my new folder 'things to make' :) Sian aka Violaceous xx
