Welcome to a new week at The Paper Players! I had a great time last week, checking out the gallery to see what everyone made of my sketch challenge. I loved the entries and choosing a Headliner was tricky. Thank you for making the sketch shine!
Stef is our hostess this week and she has a theme challenge: By the Water. It's a great theme as you can be by the water in so many different ways.
I put down a piece of masking paper and sponged some Coastal Cabana ink about it, using a blending brush. After removing the paper, I stamped in some dots in Crumb Cake to suggest the sand, then added my shell and starfish. I gave the starfish a coating of Wink of Stella so they could twinkle a little. 😀
I cut the panel using the largest of the Textured Notes dies and added the sentiment in Crumb Cake. The finishing touch was to add three Holographic Dots. I liked them for the job as they suggested water drops to me, and who doesn't like a bit of splash?!
What's your favourite 'by the water' place or activity? You can see what the rest of the team have done and link up your entry on The Paper Players page.
