all at sea






Sorry it's been so long since my last post but I've been a bit busy "having" my first grandson! He was born on 21st July and weighed in at 8lb 11oz. His name is Elliot.

Like most people, Ive also been on holiday, so when I saw this stamp by Kanban it really seemed to capture the mood.

I stamped the main image onto card. Then I made a box (sides only) and cut an apperture into the front. I lined the apperture with dark blue card and added some of the complimentary images from the stamp set. I put acetate behind the apperture to create a sort of porthole. I have coloured the picture with watercolour pencils because I like the softness of the effect.

Just in case your wondering about posting this card the whole thing flattens and fits quite comfortably into an envelope.

Well that's all for now, so happy crafting,

Lots of love,

Pat x
