Welcome back to Day 3 of our Beachy Hop.
So did you get my theme for this hop?!?! On day 1, I used Gelatos, On day 2, I used regular dye ink and for day 3, I used watercolors. Now for day 4, I decided to go with... CHALKS!
Yep, I am using different coloring mediums this hop.

So for this card, I used two different embossing plate, a swirl and a diamond. Then using chalks in lite blue and tan, I colored the embossed area with a sponge.  The cute seagull images was colored with Spectrun Nior (another medium) and fussy cut. Then I just adhered to the card front. For a little more color I used some bakers twine. Looking back, I wish I used some jute. I might have to fix that, lol.

So that is our January hop. I am so glad you hopped along!!! Until next month folk, bye, bye!!!  Oh wait a minute, I meant for the hops, but I know you are stopping by everyday to check out the great posts from the SBC DT?!?!?!  LOL.

Building Block Graduation Card

By
Hello, everyone! Melissa here on to share a "building block" style card with you. I made this one graduation themed, since there are a ton of graduations going on right now. Hope you enjoy this card, and are inspired to try it out yourself. Here is the tutorial I followed from Split Coast Stampers. To make it easier, I will give you all the measurements, here. It looks harder than it is, I promise. Start with a piece of cardstock in your desired color that is 5.5 x 10.5. Put the 10.5 inch side along the top of your score board or paper trimmer, and score at 3.5 inches and 7 inches. Fold the first score line in a mountain fold, and the second in a valley fold. You should end up with a "z" fold card. The next part can get a bit tricky, so make sure you watch the video to fully understand what I am about to explain. On the back side of the "valley" fold, take a ruler and pencil and mark these measurements: 3/8 1 3/8 1 5/8 2 5/8 2 7/8 3 7/8 ...
