Hello, Kraftie Friends!

Welcome to Club Scrap's Blog Hop and Linky Party!!!
This month we're featuring the Boardwalk Collection...


If you came from Karen's Post (at Club Scrap's Blog), you're in the right place!
Your next stop is Kay's Blog!!!

Hop and then create a project and link it HERE!

Here are my projects...


Boardwalk Collection is perfect for Beach/Summer/Vacation themes!
I used printed paper as base, a strip of plain paper with photo mats (Hypno Vintage Paper Pack), and some stamped embellishments (Boardwalk Art Nouveau and Jumbo unmounted stamps).
I stamped the lobster and crabs, cut them out and colored them with Tim Holtz Distress Ink Stain BARN DOOR (Ranger). I thought it would be funny to place the crabs on the beach chairs! =)
I also added some Mod Podge Dimensional Magic Glitter Gold on the eyes.
I added the stamped border and the sentiment (with foam tape).

And I love the versatility of the Boardwalk Collection!
If you don't want to make vacation themed pages...4th of July is almost here!

Some of the papers are perfect for the firework/BBQ photos you'll be taking! =)
I made a mix of traditional and pocket scrapbooking.
On the left, I used printed papers, plain papers and photo mats, a border from Boardwalk Embellishment Cutaparts, Boardwalk Wood Veneer Tag & Stars and the awesome baker's twine (from Boardwalk Fibers). I adhered the Boardwalk Wood Veneer Stars with Mod Podge Dimensional Magic Glitter Gold and I also applied it on the Stars for a bit of shine!
On the right, I used printed papers, plain papers, and Boardwalk Embellishment Cutaparts (some of them are just the right size!).

And last, but not the least...if you like to use Digital Kits, Boardwalk Digital Kit is an awesome one to have:


Once I chose the images I wanted, it didn't really take me a long time to finish this page!
I chose my background paper, added the grass, sand, ribbons, umbrella and chairs images.
I added an image for the background and faded it a bit.
Finally, I added the frames and photos.

Hope you've enjoyed my projects!

How was your weekend?
I have a couple of cards for some challenges...


This card was made using scraps from the Club Scrap Boardwalk Collection.
I stamped the swimsuit (Boardwalk Greeting unmounted stamps) and cut it out. I watercolored it with All Purpose Ink Tropical Lagoon + Tsukineko Spray Ink Potion No 9 (Blending Fluid) and Fabrico Marker Tropical Lagoon.
I drew a frame around the swimsuit and added a stamped sentiment (CTMH).

Challenges:
1. Freshly Made Sketches #240 - A Sketch by Jen B.
2. The Paper Players #299: A Color Challenge from LeAnne


3. Glitter 'N' Sparkle Challenge: Father's Day


I printed hydrangeas (Club Scrap's Hydrangeas Digital Kit) for the background. I printed it on purple cardstock and trimmed the panel.
I stamped hydrangeas from Stampendous Cling Stamps BUILD A BOUQUET SET on white cardstock and cut them out.
I painted panel and flowers with All-Purpose Ink (API), added details with a Fabrico marker and arranged them on the panel without adhering them. After deciding placement, I used a craft knife to cut a window on purple panel.
Then, I adhered the hydrangeas and adhered the panel on the white card base.
I stamped a sentiment (CTMH) in the window and added details on flowers with Ranger BISQUE Liquid Pearls Pearlescent Paint (LPL28062).

Hello, Kraftie Friends!

I have a quick card to share, using some washi tapes...


I used papers, stamps and embellishments from Club Scrap's Boardwalk Collection.
I had some left over paper strips from other projects and I layered them on card base. I drew some borders using a black pen.
I layered some washi tapes: Journeyman Tissue Tape (Tim Holtz) and The Paper Studio.
I stamped the image (CS Boardwalk Jumbo unmounted stamps) on white cardstock, using Memento Danube Blue (from Memento GUM DROPS 12 Dew Drop Ink Pads MD-012-100).
I die cut the image using 2 circles (Spellbinders Circles), inked the outer one with Memento Danube Blue and adhered on card (so it's an inlaid design).
I finish it with a funky fiber (Boardwalk Fibers) and an Engraved Shell Button (stars colored with Copic marker).


Challenges:
1. RetroSketches #217

I used Club Scrap's Celebrate Circle Overlay Stencil and Boardwalk unmounted stamps (Jumbo and Art Nouveau), Copic marker for the umbrella, Heidi Swapp Color Shine Teal and sequins
I also used EK Success Cutter Bee Piercing Bugs Rotary Tool to pierce the panel, although is hard to see...you can see it better on the next card...
