Beach Card For Stampin for the Weekend

Hello everyone. Yes, you guessed right, it’s time for a new Stampin for the Weekend Challenge.

This fortnightly challenge is.......

Holiday - Anything Beach Themed!

Our sponsor for this challenge is Pink Gem, who is kindly offering 6 digi's of the winners choice!! 

Here is my beach card:

I made this card for my brother Josua, who’s birthday is next week (24th of August). Josua is turning 11 and he totally loves to play (anything), so I think this card fits him well.

I used a Whiff Of Joy Stamp that I bought long ago in the “June Stamp Kit - Fun in the sun” I colored him with the following Copics:

E35, E33 and E53 - for the boy’s hair.

R20, R21 and E00 - for his skin.

B05, B02 and B000 - for his T-shirt.

R29 and R27 - for the red on his pants 

Y15, Y11 and Y00 - for the yellow on his pants 

G17, G14 and G12 - for his shoes and the ball in his hand.

W3 - for a shadow around the stamp.

I stuck a piece of ribbon though the middle of the card and made a knot with it on the right hand side.

I also payed around with some buttons in the corners. 

I wrote “Lekker Verjaar!!!” which means Happy Birthday in Afrikaans and put it on the right hand side of the image.

I will post some pictures of Josua’s birthday after next week!

Please do hop over to Stampin for the Weekend and see if you can take part in our challenge!

Hi everyone! I’m back with another card.

This time, one I made for Stampin for the Weekend and the theme is........

Since I live in South African and it is currently SO hot here, I made a beach card.

This is the first card I made with more than one stamp!

I used stamps from Whiff of Joy’s Fun in the sun kit.

And colored them with the following Promarkers:

Blush - for her skin 

Cyan and Sky Blue - for her dress

Pastel Yellow and Dusky Pink - for her top

Yellow - for her shoes 

Cool Grey 1 - for around the stamp

For the Crab -

Bright Orange - for his skin 

Berry Red - for his mouth 

Cool Grey 1 - for around him

For the Sand Castle - 

Yellow and Pastel Yellow - for the sand 

Bight Orange - for two of the flags 

Cyan and Sky Blue - for the other two flags, water and a sea shell 

Coral - for the sea stares 

Cool Grey 1 - for around the stamp

I used some of my new flowers and a bow I had for a long time as a finishing touch.
