On the Beach

Howdy!

My name is Mary Ellen Driggs and my blog is Creative Time With M.E.

I am so excited to be a guest designer for the Clever Dexter blog this month!

This month's challenge Sponsor is Oddball Stamps.

And the challenge for this month is Beach Bum.

As guest designer I was able to play with the Creepy Cute Big Eye Hula Girl Spooky Sue Image No. 247 from Oddball Stamps!  With this stamp set you get a couple of images.

For this A2 sized card, I used stencils to create the background and ink. Also for where the ocean meets the beach, I put fabric applique there and heated it up. This creates a more realistic look. And for the beach cutie, I used colored pencils. And blended the pencils with baby oil. On my YouTube channel, there are videos on how I use colored pencils and blend with them. Along with a video on how I create such a wonderful cloud background.

There's still time if you wish to participate in the Clever Dexter Challenge!!!

The challenge runs from June 1st to June 30th! And this month's theme is Beach Bum!
