Last Saturday of the month and time for the Smash Your Stash journal page challenge with Vicki from--- Stamped Smiles. Hope you will check out her blog-she makes brilliant journal pages and cards.
Due to computer breaking down then losing John I am two months behind so playing catch up with the Water theme. I found a premade background in my journal and just added some more blue distress ink and stamped bubbles, added a strip of wall lining-no idea why but found it in the drawer so on it went! I stamped all the images on p, paper from CraftOclock then cut them out with a tag die bought from a decluttering page on FB, the stamp set is from the decluttering page too, the voice of the sea sentiment was sent to me in a card swap. The centre sentiment tag was put onto 3-D foam pads.
I had to include the lighthouse-love them reminds me of the one at Spurn Point where I spent many happy school holidays. My Uncle was a Lifeboat crew man and it was very remote with chickens running round-my Aunt/Uncle and two cousins lived at cottage no 5-its all abandoned now due to getting wash overs with the tides and can get cut off sadly.
PLEASE NOTE IF ANY CHALLENGES HAVE DIGIS FOR PRIZES-I AM JUST PLAYING FOR FUN AND SUPPORT AS I HAVE NO PRINTER
