Cardstock Carnival - Tech Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the CTMH consultant Technique blog hop. Tonight we have 10 CTMH consultants showcasing artwork featuring our fabulous cardstock. We can use other products but the emphasis has to be on the cardstock! If you are joining me from the ever talented Melissa Robinson, you are in the right spot. If you are starting here at my blog, welcome. To see what each consultant creates, just look for the link at the end of each blog post. 

For this layout I wanted a beach feel so I used Toffee card stock for sand and Glacier for the water. If you look closely at the pictures you will see a faint it of orange for the sun setting so I added in Peach cardstock. I used my Glacier and Toffee ink to add some sponged affects as water and sand varies in colours. 

For the title, I glued strips of Glacier and Toffee to White Daisy, the Glacier and Toffee were torn to represent the water and sand. Once all pieces were glued I used my Classic Alphabet Thin Cuts (Z3655) and lined them up with the White Daisy on top, Glacier than the Toffee. Once I cut them out, I sponged on a faint layer of peach for the Sunset. I did add a bit of peacock in stamping just for some depth and dimension of colours. I used some older but still available stamp sets Z3972 At the Beach stamp & Thin Cuts and Z3745 Summer Vibes Scrapbooking.
