Over on the Crafty Individuals' blog you have just enough time to make your entry for the June challenge, which is Sun, Sea, and Beach. All the details are
here but basically just use one Crafty Individuals' item in your make, and incorporate the theme, and just for entering you will be able to claim 25% off anything you buy from the shop, anhd you will be in with a chance of winning a wonderful prize! You have until the end of the day on 30 June to enter. For my bit of inspiration I have decorated a papier mache box in the shape of a flip flop, to keep those beach-combing trinkets in (you know, the things we used to give to Mum to put in her handbag!).
I painted it with Fresco Finish paints in shades of orange and yellow and used images from 272, which are the shells and text, and 278 which are the beach huts and the parasol girl, and 034 which is the round text stamp. I painted my images with the Frescos, incorporating shades of blue with the orange and white. I finished off with some pearls on the thong that would go between the toes.
Do hope you will join in!
Beautiful box and new works, dear Lucy! I especially love the work with the stamp from Lynne Perella. So awesome!
