I am so excited, I have finally found a card Swap to be in and this is my first card. This months theme (and there were several to choose from) was Swirl, Beach or domestic Goddess. I decided to mix the Beach and Swirl themes together and this is what I came up with. The background has been made using a resist technique with Waxed paper and Distress inkpads. For more information on this check out my YouTube video here
The gorgeous lady is the Loralie Design Beach Bum stamp. I have stamped with London Fog Memento Ink and then coloured her skin, hair, bag and Hat with alcohol markers.
The image was then stamped again onto some patterned paper and the swimsuit, bow and bag were cut out and adhered onto the first image. This was then cut out and attached to the card front.
I can't wait to start creating my next card which has a Harvest or Thanks Giving theme.
Till next time
Happy Crafting
