Oh to be Besides the Sea...

It may have been wet and miserable outside today, but at our craft workshop we were in a summer mood.
Today, we made two cards from the Hobby Art stamp set ........Coastal Scene-it....
Here is the first one...


We started by stamping using black Versafine ink onto watercolour card....it was great to just take time and build the scene ....
Using distress ink to watercolour with the sea, sand and sky had colour added..
Then the rest was coloured with watercolour pencils....
Once the image was finished and placed onto black card we glued it into place on our card blank. Then the fun began......we extended the image, drew and coloured it in.....A bit scary at first.....but oh such fun....
A Hobby Art sentiment, few embellishments and job done...
A great stock card that could be used for a wide variety of occasions.


The second card was a quick card using Distress inks on the reverse side of Centura Pearl and a bit of water spritzing. Stamping the camper van three times and then taking the colour out of the image using water and Kitchen Roll. A few finishing touches and this really is a 10 minute card..
As usual it was so good to see you all and remember what happens at Craft Club ......stays at Craft Club!!!
Take care all and pop back soon....Jo. X
