CPS #241 {Seaside Hello}


The Card Positioning Challenge has a great sketch this week and I was inspired to play along!  I loved the layout and decided to play with some Bo Bunny Paper and a new stamp set called "Seaside Lighthouse" by Essential Stamps.



You should see my fingers!  I used a sponge and ink to colour the image and to add some distressing to the edges.  I also used some twine atthe bottom of my card and tied it in a knot. The twine was a gift from my friend Jen.  Thanks Jen, so happy I got the chance to use it!! 

Thanks for stopping by!!!
