Joy of Sets June Blog Hop - Splish Splash

Hi everyone and welcome to this month's Joy of Sets blog hop. I hope you've been having fun hopping around. You should have arrived here after seeing the lovely project made by Susan Webster.

Our theme this month is "Splish Splash" - I wasn't inspired to begin with as I didn't appear to have any relevant stamp sets. But then I remembered my go to set for male cards - Lilypad Lake. Sadly this set has now retired but it will stay in my collection forever! And so here is my card.


Lilypad Lake Stampin Up

I stamped the "sea" with the wavy stamp in Pacific Point and then went over it with an Aquapainter to get the ink to run a bit and give that watercolour effect.

The boats were stamped with a Memento Tuxedo Black ink pad and coloured with Stampin' Blends before being cut out with the matching dies.

The little birds were hand drawn using a fine, black journalling pen. 

I hope you like my card and that you will continue hopping around all the other blogs to see the amazing projects everyone has made - loads of inspiration to be had. Next up for today is Rochelle Laird-Smith. Please click on the NEXT button to see what she has in store for you!

Here is the roll call just in case you get lost on the hop!
