Saltwater Heals Everything

Each year my Sister and I try to spend a week together in a new location ... and in recent years, those locations have often included the beach. We both love feeling our feet in the sand, listening to the sound of the waves, and collecting sea shells.

Memories of those experiences ... and looking forward to our upcoming trip together next month inspired my card designs.

Remember, all new stamps are 15% off through the 8th (and you get an additional 10% off your entire order by using my discount code TJ10Stephanie).

I started by creating a watery background by spraying three different Shimmering Bliss Sprays on Watercolor Paper ... I love the color combination of Ocean Depth, Miami Vice and Vivid Volt.

All of today's cards feature the new Underwater Borders Stamps.

For the first one I combined it with the Saltwater Heals Everything sentiment and some wonderful Tropical papers from the new Paradise Found Collection by Kaisercraft. I also stamped the Mermaid from Mermaid Kisses several times to peek through from the top of the panel.

I'm linking-up at The Artistic Stamper By the Seaside Challenge.

For the next card I used a different Underwater Borders stamp and added two stamps from the Seashells Stamp Set before finishing with some sequin "bubbles" and the Saltwater Sentiment again.

I'm linking-up at the Summer Vacation Challenge at The Paper Players.

And my third card the combines the Underwater Border with two stamps from the Mermaid Kisses set ... I love how well these stamp sets work together to create a card set filled with underwater wonder. I'm also linking-up at the Summer Fun Challenge at Always Fun Challenges.

I can almost hear the ocean calling my name.

I'm also joining the TGIF Challenge to create a set of cards.

Near the Sea!

The Vintage Light House is such a cool stamp. I drew a faint line to extend ocean water across the card front. The other stamps are both from the set By the Sea.

You can get an automatic 15% off of this light house stamp (and all of the other June Technique Junkies Release stamps) plus you can use my own code TJ10Judy for another 10% off of your order! What a terrific deal!

Have a marvelous day and get inky!

Light My Way

Greetings lovely stampers! I hope you have had a chance to enjoy the June release hop. Lynda Joy here, with another project for your inspiration today.

When I saw the Vintage Lighthouse stamp, I knew I would be using it in my journaling bible.

To create my page, I stamped the Vintage Lighthouse onto my bible page. To 'ink' the stamp, I used Tombow dual tip markers. I used one of the grays for the lighthouse, and a light blue for the clouds and water portions of the stamp. I find that the Tombow dual brush markers do not bleed through my page, so I can use them in my journaling bible safely.

I stamped the main image on the journaling area, and extended the clouds/sky and water into the script a little. I don't mind adding color on the words, as long as I can still read the scriptures. I used Polychromos colored pencils to color the image and create the sky and water. I find that the bible pages take the pencil well, and are great for coloring on the word portion without obscuring the scriptures.

For my journaling, I used Sakura Micron pens, and hand-lettered the verse. I decided to keep this page fairly simple, as the Psalm really speaks for itself.

I hope you enjoyed my project today, and that it inspired you to use your stamps in new and different ways, and on different projects.

If you missed the June stamp release hop, you can find it here. You can find all of the new stamps HERE.

Use my code, TJ10Lynda, to get 10% off all new stamps through June 8th. That's 10% plus the 15% that they are already discounted, for a total of 25% off through the 8th.

If you have any questions about Bible journaling, I would be happy to answer them. You can see more of my Bible journaling on my blog HERE.   Enjoy the rest of your weekend, and I hope you can take some time to create something beautiful!

Thanks for visiting.

Blessings,
