This weeks sketch at Sweet sunday sketch challenge is a great layout , The inside. I have been playing with this set a lot and have seen lots of great cards on Pinterest so if any of these look like yours I thank you for the inspiration. for my Challenge sketch i have used the Colours Midnight muse, Crumb Cake and Pool Party along with some of the DSP from Epic Day set, some Natural ribbon and Candy Dots in Marina Mist. The two tone ink on the fish was achieved using pen to rubber with the midnight after inking the stamp from the inkpad with the pool party. And of course a little bit of glitter using the Dazzling Details for the scales and some bubbles. I have a few other samples using the same set to share.  old olive never seems to photograph well as a true colour,sorry about the photography. thanks for looking, Liz

The shell is of from By the Tide. Thanks for looking, Liz

This one is a little more detailed but very worth the trouble. One of the ladies at my Easter class wanted to order the set on page 87 of the catalogue and when we looked at it I was inspired by the cute little birdhouse at the bottom of the page. This is a CASE of that picture, with a few of my own touches. For the timber of the house I used the fabulous new Hardwood (130322)  large stamp and used Early Espresso on crumb cake The base cardstock is 21 cm x 14.7. - I love it when I can get 2 projects neatly from one sheet of A4., scored in the usual way   The roof is Early Espresso C'oredinations embossed using the new Arrows EF (132187) and sanded-  (looks like roof tiles don't you think?) 2" strip x 51/2 ".
