Kelly's Stamping Friends Birthday Blog Hop

I am participating today in a fantastic hop helping the wonderful Kelly Kent celebrate her Birthday.

SO
Lets Wish Kelly a HUGE

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

For my project today I have created something new.
Well new for me anyway 😆

I have chosen to create a framed sampler with a Ocean/Sea theme.

Here is my project

By The Sea

#KOCreationsCards #Seasampler #StampinUp30 #SeaOfTextures #LillypadLake #MagicalMermaid #HomeDecor #KellysStampingFriends
I have never created a sampler of anything before and wasn't sure where to start.
So using an A4 sized framed shadow box, I decided to give it a whirl and designed my sampler to fit.
I used only products that will be available from the 2018/2109 catalogue. This catalogue goes LIVE from the 1st June 2018

I thought a closer view would show a little bit more of the detail in this sampler. I found it really hard to capture a good shot to show it's true beauty.

I am elated with the finish on this even though I struggled to capture it.
This took me 3 days to complete, as I mentioned earlier I had never created a sampler before. I am not even sure what I will do with it lol. Perhaps a gift for someone special. 

Up next we have Denise Beutler
