Just a stroll on the beach

Good evening to you all in the land of blog
Today I get to showcase for you on behalf of Grimsby Crafts, another fabulous image from the new stamps that have just arrived in, the designer here is Faye Whittaker and the stamp name is "Lifebuoy".  

Here is my take on this
I have created a tilted easel circle card, using my Grand Callibur and grand circles, sort of getting addicted to the grand as you may have gathered.  The base colour and contrast is lemon yellow, the paper are Prima, also available at Grimsby Crafts.  The image frame is a grand circle wrapped in ribbon.  The flowers are from Hobby Craft.  The sentiment and pearls from Grimsby Crafts.

Here is a close up of the image coloured in copics
Just a fabulous image to colour and lots more available in the shop too

I would like to enter this into the following challenges
A Spoon Full of Sugar - tons of texture
Papertake Weekly - Anything Goes optional something new
The Crazy Challenge - Just add flowers
HLSC - A Shaped Card
House of Gilli - Ribbons and Pearls

    What a fabulous card, very pretty! Thank you for joining Quirky Craft's challenge.
    Naughty Mr Froggy! If you can't see him or can only see a 'small froggy with Inlinkz and nothing else, refresh the page, and wait for it re-load. He then 'should' appear, above the pictures of the cards entered, a little larger with the words 'Links in collection (and the number) Click to view/add link' and it will take you on to another page.
    any more problems please email me at dragonsmoore at googlemail dot com. Don't forget to pop back again on Friday/Saturday to vote for your favourite!
