Beach Hammock

Hi Folks
Hope everyone is well and is coping with the snow this week, which we've managed to avoid apart from a slight covering......so far anyway! But it's very cold out there so I decided to do a card with this little chap on and daydream that I'm on a beach somewhere far away. I'm entering this for the PennyBlack and the Cuttlebug Challenges, both themes being Happy New Year and he looks like he's toasting one to us doesn't he? I've used possibly my most used Cuttlebug folder 'Divine Swirls', cos it looks abit like the sea and covered it in Stickles Glitter Glue, cos you can never have too much glitter can you and used my Sakura Glaze pen on his sunglasses and cocktail glass to make them all shiny. I then remembered I bought some shells ages ago and sat and thought about how to put them on and bingo I didn't think it needed much else on there! Oh I love papercrafting and sometimes wonder what I'd do without it! But, I'm afraid there's housework to be done! Booo!
Take care and thank you for looking.

My Recipe
Stamp from Penny Black
Embossing folder from Cuttlebug
Background papers from Basic Grey
Ribbon from Wild Orchid Crafts
Other materials used: Versafine Ink Pad, Faber-Castell Watercolour Pencils, Stickles Glitter Glue & Sakura Glaze Pen
