Hello everyone, Anja here today with a sweet underwater scene using the Sea Friends stamp set that features the most adorable mermaids and ocean critters. First, I created the water background with the help of Distress Oxide Sprays. The colors I picked are Salty Ocean, Mermaid Lagoon and Blueprint Sketch.

For the sand hill, I blended Antique Linen and a bit of Gathered Twigs Distress Oxide Ink onto a strip of...

Hello! Amy here and I’m back on the Hello Bluebird blog with some cute Bonfire Buddies who are lighting up the night with good times and sweet treats. Everyone knows that the best part of camping is sitting around a blazing fire in the dark of night, telling stories and toasting marshmallows for s’mores and these woodland critters are doing it up right! I started by laying out the scene on a scratch piece of card stock using the actual stamps, this gives me the visual I need to figure out what images to stamp first as I build...
