Who Knew?

 Hello lovely crafters. 

I always wanted to be artistic and now I'm made a tiny piece of art. 

Our challenge this fortnight at Shopping our Stash is: She Sells Seashells

Anything to do with the sea, shells or the beach. 

I searched through my stash and didn't find one single shell or beach hut so I decided to try and paint something. To my amazement it worked. 


From my stash I used a scrap of watercolour paper, a very old Kanban stamp set, for the grass and seed heads, and greeting from a Stamplorations stamp set. Then a Die-namics die to frame my little masterpiece.
The key I think was adding some white gel pen lines as froth. Of course I needed some birds and there was a tiny bird stamp in the same set. 

I think on the whole I will stick to stamping but it was fun to try. I'm really pleased with the fact that this worked and how cute it turned out. 

Do see if you have got something summery and beachy in your stash and join in with our challenge. 




Thanks for visiting, enjoy your day.

  1. A lovely tranquil seaside scene - very resourceful when you found you had no seashell stamps in your stash. This has worked very well
