Seas the Day!

Happy Saturday!  Come and join me over at Kraftin’ Kimmie Stamps for the newest Saturday Challenge!

Sabrina is challenge us this week to think all about… “Under the Sea”!

So I grabbed my “You Are Mer-Mazing” stamp set because I knew I wanted to colour up the sweet little mermaid in it and stamped her using “Granite Grey” ink.

I wanted to added a few more critters to my sea, so I grabbed the “Manatee Pals” and the “Oceans of Love” stamp sets too.

To create the wavy scene, I used the Krafty Scenery Stencil (A MUST HAVE!!) and some “Mermaid Melody” and “Sparkling Sapphire” inks and a blender brush and lightly blended the “cloud” edge upside down to create waves.

On the inside I used some “Mossy Meadow” and “Granite Grey” inks to stamp the plants and the shells.  I used some “Lovely Lagoon” to darken the water to appear “under the sea”.  For the sentiments I used “Wicked Black” ink.

For all the Saturday Challenge rules, please visit the Kraftin’ Kimmie Blog.

Plus, don't forget this month's sketch for inspiration... designed by yours truely... lol!

Thanks for stopping by!  I hope this inspires you to come along and create with us.

You Are the Sweetest

TGIF everyone!  Thanks for visiting today!  Today I’m playing with the delicious Power Poppy “Summer Berries” stamp set and some Copic Markers.

I stamped my luscious raspberries image using Memento “Tuxedo Black” ink and coloured it up using some beautiful reds and pinks.  I also left some of the berries unripe too.

I love the pop of colour those raspberries give to the card!

Now, come and check out what the rest of the Bloomies have created to share with you today…
