You're Just Lovely - High Tide

Hi there, 

I've not blogged in a while, but I've been busy creating & the next week or so is going to be jam packed with some lovely posts. 

I was inspired by the Global Design Project's Colour challenge, I find it really hard to stick to 3 colours so this was indeed a challenge, here is the inspiration from the GDP team: 


So I had the colours, but did I know where to start - not the foggiest!! I knew I wanted to use the High Tide stamp set as to be honest I've not inked it much!! So then I found the Freshly Made Sketches challenge for this week: 

Which inspired me to create the following: 


Here is a close up: 


I like the angle of this picture I took, I think it makes the lighthouse & the birds in the sun pop, what do you think?: 

I really liked creating this project & it was nice to use colours in a way that is not normally intended - like a flirty flamingo sun - makes it look like it is just before dusk. The colours really complement each other. 

Thanks for stopping by & I hope you pop back soon, 

X Jessie B X

The lovely Pam Staples who is part of the hop created this lovely sketch to follow: I really enjoyed creating this project & I've used some sneak peeks that will be coming out in January when the Spring/Summer catalogue goes live. The first picture is a my work in progress of the design before I was happy. I used the lovely Petal Passion suite:  Here is what the finished page looks like, I used the co-ordinating stamp set to create the flowers & the bottom of the page, mounted the pictures/journaling in Rose Red &...
