August 2020 - I Do Like To Be Beside The Seaside

Welcome to our August Challenge, chosen by the Lovely  Craftyfield


Welcome to our August challenge, which I am delighted to host!
I chose a theme close to my heart: the Seaside.
I want to see beaches, boats, ports, beach huts, deck chairs, bathers etc…
You can choose to illustrate underwater scenes too, but a single fish/seahorse/shell will not do... 
If it needs an explanation...it doesn't fit the theme!!!


Come by my blog to read how I made my tag!



It really is the time of the year for us to all be thinking of the seaside and I am delighted that this is our theme for August. Even if beach holidays abroad have been cancelled, I hope you can still tiptoe through the sand and listen to the sea at some point this summer.
My seaside make today uses one of the backgrounds I shared on the shop blog some months ago using the new distress glazes on texture paste.
If you would like to see more of how I made this just swim  pop on over to my blog here where I will reveal all. 
Have a wonderful summer and enjoy your holidays or should I stay staycation this year!
Stay safe,
Back on the 9th with my 2nd project,



Happy August.  
Here is my first project for the challenge:


Pop over to my blog to see how I created this vintage memory themed card.
Happy crafting!

Hello there - just love this months theme - it gave me the chance to get some older stamps out and play with yummy distress oxides - you can find details on my blog here. Can't wait to see what you make!
