In The News
Playing along with a few challenges today with this one layer card. I've used one of the images from my new stamp set, The Bee's Knees BabyBump. I pencilled a washing line, then stamped the jacket three times at different angles to make it look like they're blowing around in the wind, then drew in the line and the posts with a 0.5 fineliner. The jackets are coloured with Distress Ink and the same colours are splattered across the card to look like pollen and dust floating on the breeze.
Ok, first up is One Layer Simplicity, where Karen's challenge is Blowin' in The Wind.
Then there's CASology - News, to celebrate the birth of DT member Gillian's baby boy :)
Next up ShowCASE Your Style where there's a (stretch-a-)sketch. What do you think - a stretch too far?
And finally at Less Is More, it's a one layer splatter challenge - yay!
The grasses stamped on the card belong to a set that was in the goody box that I bought from Debby Lime Doodle in aid of breast cancer causes. Wanna see all the contents?

Not sure why you even need stamps, my friend, because you are so talented at drawing! The style of your posts match the little jackets perfectly! So glad you joined us at CASology and OLS this week!
ReplyDeleteSo stinkin' adorable, Shirley!!! LOVE this! :o)
ReplyDeleteMy first thought was, who makes that stamp? The clothesline is adorable! Then I read your post...and you drew it! Perfect!!!! Those sweet little jackets blowing in the wind are adorable. Thanks for joining in the fun at CASology as we celebrate Gillian's good news!

What cute little jackets! Love them blowing in the breeze on the clothesline!
ReplyDeleteShirley, this is adorable and all the more awesome because you designed the stamps! Thanks for playing along with CASology this week!
ReplyDeleteAdorable, Shirley ... these sweet little jackets are just so cute wafting gently in the breeze! Anita :)
ReplyDeleteLove your 'doodled' clothesline and the sweet colored jackets! I'm sure I can smell the fresh air fragrance - nothing can compare to the smell of laundry dried on an outdoor line! Hmmmm....perhaps it's time for a 'clothesline' series of stamping images ???
ReplyDeleteYou thought of everything when you made this card, Shirley. It satisfies all the challenges and it darling to boot. I can see now why you design stamps. Your additions to the stamped images are perfect.
ReplyDeleteYour baby jackets on the clothes line: fabulous! If they were hanging here, today, they'd likely be blown to another mountain range! Sunny, but soooo windy! Your goodies like a whole lot of fun waiting to be had...and proceeds heading for such a great cause!
