Life's a Beach
Well, perhaps not exactly a beach for me right now...my life's more like the alternative saying at the moment lol, but to brighten up my morning these gorgeous gorgeous carefree happy looking stamps arrived from Crafty Individuals. I have to say, these new beach images are right up there amongst my all time fave Crafty Individuals stamps.
I was all fingers and thumbs, I couldn't ink the rubber fast enough to make this little card so I could post here and do a 'heads up' re their new images .
This card was made very simply by using coloured paper, black ink, a copic marker and a white pen.
The main image from the CI-284 plate. Added extras (neg strip and dotty-ness!) from the CI-283 plate.
I hope the girls that modelled so beautifully for these plates were paid well in treats....bet that north coast sea was freeeeeeeezing lol BRRRRRRRR!!

Fabulous card, Jo. I've just been eyeing up these stamps myself.
Sorry you're having a hard time of it - hope things improve soon. The card is gorgeous and so are those stamps!
Thanks for your lovely comments.
Here’s hoping your life goes more towards the “beach” end of the spectrum soon!
I LOVE this card, and this stamp too.
It’s years since I last bought a stamp (I already have enough to last me a lifetime :D), but this one is sorely tempting!
wonderful Jo. beautifully coloured.
ooo love that image, off to eye up their new stamps.
gorgeous card
Hi Jo, this stamp set and your card are just brilliant, I love the simple way you've used them.
I really hope that the sentiment will apply for you soon :0) xx
This is definitely fun at the beach, great stamp and smashing card. Enjoy the weekend, Annette x
Hi Jo, I have had my eye on this one.... love the colours that you have used - totally wonderful! I really like the other stamp that it this one's partner too. Sorry that life is yuck right now. Here's a big virtual hug ((((()))))! Jo x
Oh wow what a gorgeous summer feeling card Jo.
Fantastic colors and card. I love it.
Have a lovely weekend my dear friend.
Oh I love that! Love the banner and your colours. Just fabulously happy. Kim
wonderful card.
Really gorgeous card Jo. Love how effective the white highlights are.
Hope life picks up for you sooner rather than later.

Wow - die Karte ist ein Traum.... Bekomme vor Staunen den Mund nicht mehr zu.
Fabulous creation Jo. I was looking at those stamps yesterday thinking that they were a must have.
The card is just stunning, as are the new stamps. I was taken aback when they arrived today, and so eager to do something with them. I have started a little acrylic 'friends' book, and can't wait to finish it! x
Fabulous card Jo! Great new stamps too.
Wonderful card! Those white highlights really make the waves come alive. The movement and detail of this card really make it something special. I love the torn paper treatment at the bottom too - what a great way to use scraps (though I just know that the perfect paper would never already be in scrap form....). Beautiful card. Hope things turn the corner for you.

These stamps look great (just ordered a set), lovely creative project Jo !!
Absolutely gorgeous!
Lol! Ordered a set of these newbies last night! Gorgeous card Jo! xx
Great stamp, and great card, it really brings those girls alive
that is such a happy and joyful image, beautifully presented by the one and only JCS
Beautiful, beautiful project! Your technique is fab!!
I can feel the absolutel joy coming from this card. The young girls holding hands and running and jumping into the sea and screaming with delight at the freezing water.
Was it mum who said, ' Right on the count of three go'
I hope it took just one take to get the image.
Brilliant Jo
Stunning card. Love your colour choice, not too bright, with a sense of shabby to it. Lynne M
Gorgeous, love it!
I really like your new stamps Jo, just bought your mistletoe and Merry Kiss-mas!
I think I might go for Chilly next!

This is soooo beautiful! I love the effect you've achieved simply with some Copics and a white gel pen on that blue background. So serene and happy!
I adore this ...you've shown off the stamp to perfection.
I hope that one day I can quickly rustle up something as gorgeous as this Jo!
All your projects are very inspiring and so original and I always look forward to seeing your projects in Craft Stamper :-)
Congratulations on your new stamps!

I think these stamps are going to be winners, I really like how you have used them here.
And Im just checking my spelling this time before I submit, so excited was I that blogger is playing ball for the first time in a while, I spelt that wrong!!
i like this a lot. i love the lines and the shapes - the triangles and the contrast of the blue over red.
