Alas this will be our last Mini Hop.  Can you believe it?  In saying that, as from next week, we will be going global but hopping the last Wednesday of the month.

I do hope you have enjoyed what Robbie & I have shared with you over the last few months.  Thank you so much for your lovely comments on my FB Page.  It’s always so appreciated.

For the month of April, we are showcasing the lovely Oceanfront Stamp Set.  You need this set in your collection, believe me!

This set makes it so easy to create lovely projects with minimum supplies & effort!

Belle & I were out & about early on our walk this morning.  In fact, it was still dark when we left home, but by the time we hit the beach, I was struck with the most amazing sunrise with the sun just starting to appear.  Can I just say, most days the sunrise is amazing but some more so than others.

As I sat down to create my card, I knew I wanted to try & capture the image into my card.  I think I have!

The circle was die cut with the Layering Circles Dies before being embossed with the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder.  To create the scene, the images were stamped onto a piece of Bsaic White Cardstock before being adhered to the back of the circle.

The sentiment is from the Inspired Thoughts Stamp Set.

Supplies –

Stamp Set – Oceanfront, Inspired Thoughts

Inks – Memento Tuxedo Black, Crumb Cake, Daffodil Delight, Coastal Cabana, Granny Apple Green, Calypso Coral

Cardstock – Basic White, Crumb Cake, Calypso Coral

A piece of Very Vanilla Cardstock was randomly stamped with images from the Stamp Set with Garden Green, Poppy Parade & Pear Pizzazz Inks.

This layer was then adhered to a Pear Pizzazz layer before being adhered to a Garden Green Base Card.
