Beach Scene: LFL July 2018

This kit has been so much fun! I've had to sneak in time in between work travel to play with the kit. Finally got a few photos taken. The kit contains what the UK call decoupage - its images that you stack to make a scene. This is my 'beachiest' card - it uses the sand that came in the kit and one of the decoupage sheets.
I watercolored the blue background - keeping it simple to keep the attention focused on the rest of the card. I added a few Nuvo drops in the corner and some real shells (all from the kit). 
Such fun to make!

Saturday Cinema Challenge

OK - I missed the last TWO! of these so I am taking no chances on what looks like another busy work week. SO here is my entry for Miracle on 34th Street. I know this line is not in the movie (and that the little girls name is Susan in the movie) but this is what I always think of when I watch this movie. The reference "Yes Virginia There is a Santa Claus comes from a child writing to the Sun Newpaper and the editor answering with the spirit of the season. The card uses Bazzil Paper and Ribbon I forget the patterned paper brand. The Santa stamp is from Oriental Trading and the Letters are Studio G wooden letters. This is colored in with a combination of Tim Holtz inks (with the SU blender pen), Koh-i-nor pencils with mineral spirits and liquid applique. Brads, floss and a decorative eyelet round it out.
