SoSS #85 B is for Beach


I almost didn't get a card done this week, totally meant to do it over our long weekend, but then you know, I got lazy. LOL   This weeks challenge is B for Beach. Mine card is more B is for water Balloon. LOL I have another inage I am going to color up and make another card with that I believe is more beach themed. 

I started with the image this time, a Simply B stamps one (the other one is also from Simply B stamps). I believe this image was from the Jude and friends line but is no longer available.   Although these stamps are no longer available, you should really check out her digital stamp line. Betty is amazing and I love her drawing and images.  

I made the balloons using Crazy Birds accessories and distress ink and a water brush. 
I stamped the images, colored a little bit and then spread the ink with the water brush. 
I also used the matching dies to cut the balloons out. 


Stuff used
Freshly made Sketches #289
Simply B digital stamp
Distress Ink (marker and pad):
Twisted Citron
Salty Ocean
Tumbled Glass
Tim Holtz Crazy Birds accessories
Basic Grey "Cupcake" 6x6 paper pad
Sentiment: I believe it was from Graphicat designs (I could be wrong)

Disclaimer: I lost all my digital stamps on my hard drive and when I was able to retrieve then using a program (and an amazing friend) the files were no longer labeled. That means I have to guess on who the stamp belonged too. I am sorry if I get it wrong, please message me so I can correct any mistakes and the artist can get the credit.
