Monday is my day for Facebook Lives – I’m not a natural at going live, but I do love the interaction of those watching. This week was a bit of a cheat as I recreated almost exactly the “A Good Man at the Beach’ project I made the night before t my team Creative Challenge. I was going to have a practice at a new card idea I had in my head but when I arrived at the school gates with my children, my 6 year old was refused entry as he ha a Covid case in his bubble. So back home we had to go together, which was NOT in this week’s game plan!!
So onto the project…
Anyway, I added a couple of extra touches but here is my card for this week’s live.
LAst night my team challenge was a colour one and we used Bermuda Bay, Crumb Cake, Sahara Sand and Basic Black – there may have been a slight cheat with the Daffodil Delight and Smoky Slate for the hair – but it’s so minimal, I hope you’ll forgive me!
The back layer is embossed with the Tasteful Texture Embossing Folder which I hoped alluded to the beach scene and the sand etc.
The background is created by the masking technique – and the sea line is also created using sticky notes. You can see exactly how I created it here.
I hope you enjoyed my tutorial, and my little vocal guest! You should give this masking technique a try, its so easy to create beautiful card with it. I mentioned the gnome card in the video, here’s a quick look at it.
That’s it for this week, I hope you enjoyed today’s project. As I also menionted in todays video, I’m having aa BOGOF sale on Friday night at 8pm on my BOGOF Facebook Group – you’re welcome to take part if you’re in the UK. Just easier for postage and currency etc if you’re in the UK.
